Mods for a newbie

[kontrolled]

hey all,

so i just recently purchased a 2013 ram 1500 ST with the 5.7 ofc and i was just wondering about some starter mods for a newbie.. i myself personally like performance over looks though visual mods will come later but my overall question is, what would be some good starter performance mods that i can handle myself that made you feel a difference in your truck?

Diablo tuner is probably your best bang for your buck. Also allows for custom tunes that will be even better than the stock tunes.

Tuner
CAI
New muffler
Catch Can
These are the basics that most start with. From there it really depends on how deep your pockets are.

i see i was looking into tuners as well but there just seem to be some things i am not understanding. what would be the difference between the bullydog gt tuner and the diablo trinity tuner?

A Diablo tuner w/ Hemifever's custom tuning is going to be the best bang for buck mod you can add. The Bullydog and standard Diablo tunes are making about 30-35hp/tq to the wheels whereas the Hemifever tuning is giving us 30-35hp/tq to the wheels.

Another bonus is that the custom tuning is good for as long as you own the truck, so updates are free as you continue to modify your truck in the future. Its a great first mod.

i think that's the one for me tbh... reading your mods buddy, now thats a rig i want to see/hear.. though i think i'm going to get slightly bigger tires though i'm sure the 34s look perfect on your truck.

Thanks man! Just remember bigger tires more rolling mass.the size tires I have to me are the perfect street 4x4 tire but also take it in the field offroad go hunting size. There really just a inch taller than stock but the all Terran tread gives it a more meaty look.
