Default Im new.

Hey im new to the site, ive got a 2003 Ram 1500 2wdRc with the 5.7 liter hemi. Ive got a k&n FIPK and a 40 series flowmaster custom exaust on it so far. It has 3:92 gears and i love it, but i need more power. I cut a good light at my local track and ran a 14.92 at 89.8 mph. Anybody have suggestions on the best performance upgrades for the money????

i believe that the hand tuners work nicely, but im not sure on the hemi.

a few guys here have seen good gains from headers...

what rims do you have? the 20s will slow you down in the quarter...and just so you know, cutting a good light has nothing to do with your ET. you could sit for a week, and launch, and youd run the same ET. the reason that i ask about the rims, im surprised that your trap speed isnt higher.

I have the 20's on there. When it gets near 90 it starts slowing to gain more speed, i donno if thats the governor or not. Im looking into buying some headers for it. Im thinking about just gettin shortys but my buddiesare sayin long tubes are better. What do you guys think???
