zackernst · Jun 18, 2017

i have 950$ to spend on upgrades for my 02 ram 1500 it is a quad cab 4x4 on 33in tires i am stuck between getting 4.56 gears and getting a 08 intake and a sct tune which one will give me the most performane gain it already has a fastman tb, cold air intake and dual exhaust

I would get the gears first. Ive got 4.56s in mine and love them. Be prepared to lose mpg on the highway. 70mph will put you around 2100rpm and man does it get thirsty. Then get you a tuner where you can adjust your gear ratio in it. Just my 2 cents. Oh and just my opinion here but i would only get 4.56s if you plan to get 35s or bigger tires. If you plan to keep your 33s i would consider 4.10s. Won't eat as much gas in the long run on the hwy.

I would say D) All of the above (the baby 8 needs it), however you most likely will not be able to get your gears done for that amount of money unless you know someone or can set it up yourself. Honestly I don't know if you will gain that much swapping the intake without the HO or 08+ cams (or equivalent) to go with it. The gears will be instantaneous and if you don't do a helluva lot of highway driving get 4.56's. If you have 3.92's now, 4.10's will not really provide a noticeable difference.
