Message: I'm looking for a new intake system - for the V6 the only thing I've found is the AIRAID. Any ideas? If so, how much of a difference in milage and power did you see??? 2001 SLT 3.9L

Message: K&N Fuel Injection Performance Kits are some nice
setups.
Expect a little better throttle response and your
gas milage will go up 1 to 2 mpg as long as you
drive the same way. add a set of 1.7's and a V8
or aftermarket TB and your intake is all set.
After that think about a low restriction muffler
and a set of JBA headers.

Message: Larry,
When you install 1.7 rockers, do you change the springs? There is no coil bind in the stock set-up?
Thx...Kurt
PS. could you look down a few messages on the V6 forum. I had a question for you concerning exhaust

Message: Kurt,
No the 1.7 crowers are just a bolt on mod and dyno
at 15 to 18 RWHP on a stock set up.
The stock springs and retainers work just fine
All you do is get 1 cyl at a time to TDC and
remove the old rockers, spray out the hole with
carb cleaner than air and put the rocker stud
with washer and a drop of blue locktight and
torque to 24 foot lbs, now install and adjust the
roller unit just untill the push rod is snug
than 3/4 turn.
The roller lifters in these trucks need a .050
.060 pre load on them.
You also need to knock back the baffles in the
covers to clear the new studs, no biggie
A easy mod for the gains you get very noticable

Message: I had the Intense Performance Stage II with 7" Big Mouth filter on my 2002 Dakota 3.9 and really liked it, the intake is also decently priced.

You will not be disappointed with it.
