i hate to break the news to you but, if you want a bolt=on kit you are S.O.L. now if you want to do it yourself you better start doing some research.

anythings possible if your wallet is deep enough.

Well, your thread subject line says it all.
If you can't have a turbo, a body kit will add about 100 HP. Toss on a wing and a bunch of APC stickers for 25 more.
And a fart-can muffler so you can sound like one of those weedwacker Hondas.

First off, 3.7L = lack of power in a 2-ton vehicle. Not much you can do about it. Shoulda taken that money you spent on "everything form 20in rims tointake an exaust" and applied it to a 4.7L Dakota.

If you have a '04 Dakota with a 3.7 in it then the Paxton supercharger kit that KRC sells will work on it perfect. You just need to keep the boost low.

Finally... a V8. '01 Dodge Dakota RC, 4.7, 5-speed, 3.92 LSD. = R/T Killer.
well at least a stock one

You could just fab up your own turbo system for pretty cheap. (compared to a bolt on kit)

Check out the link below. Its gives pics and instructions on how to bolt up a remote turbo to your dak. The original application was a 3.9 but your 3.7 should work fine.
