Default my truck is the red headed step child

I have a 2002 Ram 1500 with the 360 in it. i can not find any performance parts for it. i would like to get a nitrous kit, or possibly a supercharger with a intercooler. so far i have a k&n filter, a welded 3" single/ dual set up, 1" crank on my torsion bars and 35-12.50-17 procomps on it. i would also like to find some 1-2" longer shocks to compensate in the front end. i mainly use it as a daily driver with some mild dirt roads and fields hunting and fishing on the weedkends. any advice?

welcome to the forum...

there are a ton of performance parts for your motor. I had the same motor in my 2000 and did alot to it. to start a list...

1.7 crower roller rockers
heavy duty or R/T heads
r/t cam (or what ever grind you want)
52mm fastman throttle body
K&N intake FIPK (they should make one for your body style)... or go with a round filter on top of a 52mm fastman.
MSD ignition components.
Gibson headers (or which ever brand you prefer)

another mod you can do but it's not a quick one is to cut the runners down on the intake manifold. helps the motor breath really good on the top end.

stop by the 2nd gen ram forum for more details. there are several threads that you can research on how the intake mod is done.
