Hello everyone.. im Paul and recently got a 2012 ram v6.. I know there is not a lot of performance parts out there to beef the performance.. I just put in a drop in k&n.. im going to do a diy intake pipe and do a flow master and remove resonator.. is a jet performance stage 1 or other programmer worth it for this truck.. I do a lot of highway driving but would like more power down low when hauling.. I would also like better mpgs since I do have a 50 mile commute daily.. any advice would be greatly appreciated

I mean this with the utmost sincerity, your 3.7 V6 will be a money pit for very little gains.

You will be dollars and sense ahead either trading it off for a Hemi V8 derived RAM or just accepting what you got and keeping it maintained.

I put a stage 1 on my 3.6 Durango. Gained more than 2mpg & some throttle response. I already had a K&N CAI.
Put the K&N CAI & Stage 1 on my 6.4 Hemi & have seen no real gains out of the chip.
