For those of you who haven't seen the March 96 Motor Trend, Mopar
Performance has put out a kit for the Magnum v8 engines that increase HP
by 46 horses, and torque by 51 ft/lbs. Its basically consists of the
Engine Computer, New Headers, 3" Exhaust, and new camshaft.

In the article, they say that the RAM can now do 0-60 in 7.2 seconds, and
they used stock tires (which they blamed for the LOW time).

Anyway, now for the money part, $1750.00 -- Not to bad for the
performance increase.

Sidenote : Also in the article they have a picture of the Ram VTS which
they say is going into production (I think they are refering to the Indy
500 special edition) because it has the same Blue/White color scheme.
