Default Underdrive pulley/Mods

Seen that MotoBlue underdrive pully and was wondering if it is worth getting? I have a '03 2500 with the Hemi and am wondering what is all out there for it in terms of mods?

I have on it:
Superchip 3815 programer
Flowmaster 70 series
K&N intake system
185 Termostat

Is there anything else out there or am I stiffed?

Thanks

this has been covered a few times and heres what we decided: for the minimal gains you get with an underdrive pulley they arent worth the cost or the extra strain they put on your electronics (your alterantor, AC compressor, waterpump... will be tunring slower) so thats a no on the underdrive pulley

theres still a lot you can do to the truck: toss the rustmaster and get something that flows better than stock, get a freer flowing y-pipe, long tube headers, E-fan, cam, torque converter... the list never ends. I see you have an '03.. have you done the TMR delete mod yet?

where in wisconsin are you located?

I live in Port Washington WI, just north of Milwaukee 30miles. The TMR mod is that the pulling of the wire for the kick down when at full trottle? If so I have, full length headers for a 2500 I can not find. What kinda Y-pipe you talking about? Same with torque converter? I'm thinking of putting on a e-fan this summer and the flowmaster was to keep it some what quiet. As far as the cam that's something down the road. Any other mods list them please give's me ideas to work on. Thanks!

Long tubes are very hard to find on 2500s. I think there was a thread that said you have to get them custom made from the manufactorer.
