Dave, I'm sorta in the same boat as you. However, I plan on getting the
R/T kit for mine. I will wait for the chip and get the headers and maybe
the cam at the same time. The Mopar chip will raise the redline I
believe but requires premium unleaded. I don't drive mine that much so
gas cost is not a big deal.
