With $1200 to spend, I'm thinking you're probably best off just working
on getting the engine breathing better. You've already got a
good-flowing muffler, mate that up with a set of headers to get the
exhaust gasses exiting cleaner, and get a QuickD intake & TB from
http://www.quickd.com/ to get the air in faster. While you're there,
yank that rubber baffle that's on the right side of the radiator (that's
a free "mod"). Those items will probably put you into the $1000 range.
After that, if you have money for the Mopar Performance intake manifold,
go for it.
