Default New Dodge Ram owner

Greetings and Salutations I am new to this site and new to owning a Dodge. I recently purchased a 1998 Dodge Ram 1500 Quad Cab Sport 4X4. It's in excellent condition and the previous owner had a 6" lift put on by 4Wheel Parts with an additional 3" body lift. Dual front shocks at each front spring and 6 shocks at the rear. It has 4.56 gears in both the Dana 44 in front and the Chrysler 9.25 in the rear. The engine is the 5.9L V-8 (360) and it only had 87K miles. Never been wrecked with a clean Car Fax record. I've since changed the wheels and tires to Pro Comp's 8089 17X9 ( 4Wheelparts.com) and 35X12.5R17 Dunlop Radial Mud Rovers ( Tirerack.com) and they were installed at Allout Off Road in Richmond, TX. If there's anyone out there that knows more about these trucks I would be happy to hear from you. I want to install shortie headers and dual the exhaust all the way back going to a 3" exhaust system. I do plan on installing K&N's cold air kit and a throttlebody spacer. In addition I would like to install dual electric fans to free up more HP and get even better gas mileage outa it. If you have any ideas or websites please let me know. Thanks! Nicco
