Default Who Knows A Few Tricks??

As you can tell I'm new to the site as well as Dodge....I've owned mine for about 5 months now, and I dont know alot about Dodge. I know alot about Chevy's though its the same basic machenics I know there are some tricks.

Bottom line guys.............I want to go FASTER.....I got hotrod fever and need more speed. What are some good cheap power adding mods? I know with the Camaro there were a few free if not 50 dollar mods.

Right now my Durango runs 15.4 at 89mph in the 1/4 mile. How can I get low 14s or even high 13s if I should be so lucky with out touching the internals of the engine.

Thanks guys

There are posts all over the forums here that say that those things are garbage unless you have a carb. I'm not gonna bother with em that's for sure the mods I listed are in the order that I am going to go with my D.

Here is the short cut for the topic mean green is talking about. http://www.dodgeforum.com/m_515389/tm.htm

Also Stay away from those TB spacers. They don't work for MPI motors like ours. But they sure try to sell them to us. As usuall everone claims to give you power and performance but I've seen the reports and actual Dino's that show they are crap. If you have other ideas about your mods (post) them or use the (Search) at the top of the page, and you'll get good info.
