M1 and/or 1.7 RRs will do you nicely. The 1.7s will up the torque curve all
the way around. The M1 will cost spome torque down low with great gains up
top.

>Ok, well, I figured since I'm dropping about $500 or so in getting my
Dakota fixed, figured I'd spend a bit on something that would actually make
it go faster :-) Electric fan was a though, but for $200 or so, and the
possibility of not enough cooling turned me away (for now anyway).. So,
now my thoughts are more along an M1 intake and/or headers. Am I correct
in thinking that the M1 intake is the one of choice for a 5.2? I think JBA
headers are the choice as well? Wondering where good place to buy each
would be (besides ebay, will check there too though) or suggestions on a
better upgrade for my current setup.. Also, about what would I expect from
each in the HP/TQ catagories? Thanks... Here's the good stuff now :-)

there. Ran a best of 15.8 with the Quick-D, Hypertech PCM & Gibson (also
had strong head wind, so I probably run a 15.5-15.6). Course, that was
completely street form too... weighed in at 4,380lbs, subwoofers, spare
tire and all.
