To add to my mods I've replaced all my factory speakers (4 speaker system, not the premium one) with Polk db650 speakers.  They make an enormous difference in sound quality and don't have any trouble running off the factory head unit.  I got all 4 for $120 from Cardomain's store, they were having a sale on them at the time.

Also had a new exhaust system installed recently, bought a Hooker Headers dual tip on Ebay for $40 shipped (Chrome tip, 2.5" ID inlet) and took it to my local exhaust shop.  I had them remove all the factory exhaust behind the "Y" pipe (where the pipes from the headers come together) and install a Vortex muffler (comparable to a flowmaster 40, bit better sound IMO) with custom piping that exits just in front of the rear wheel on the passenger side.  The muffler and exhaust work cost me $110 (had to barter a bit, the muffler alone is normally $100) so all told $150 for custom exhaust isn't bad at all.  The truck seems to go a little better now and it definitely sounds a LOT better.

So I as far as performance Mods I've installed a K&N 77 Series Cold Air Intake which I purchased for about $200 off autoanything.com.  I also had a local shop fabricate Straight pipes with an Xclerator Muffler (Simmilar to a magnaflow muffler only a bit more quiet) all for about $150.  The exhaust is 2.5 which is the same as stock I believe.

For Visual mods I got some black tailight covers for about $50 off ebay.  Tinted headlight covers off autoanything for $50. Tailight cover from pepboys for $20 lights up with the Ram's head when you brake.  I got a Black Stubbie antenna off line... forget where for $20.  A soft Tonneau cover (Extang Black Max) off autoanything.com for $250.  And lastly black and blue racing pedal covers from pepboys.

I suggest going with a Cold Air Intake.  They're the cheapest and it helps it breath better.  Then I would go with the exhaust and a chip later.
