I saw an old man at the track that takes off his air intake tube and puts a pair of pantyhose around the throttle body opening. He said it dropped 3 tenths. Or you can paint some racing stripes, its good for a full second on ricers. Last resort would be to hang out with the GM guys and hope that some speed rubs off. Hope this helps.

the only real free mod for the Hemi is: an 03 can disable 40% of the Torque Management but removing or cutting the #10 wire to the TCM. This is only available to the 03s due to the separate computers... 04s and up only use one... did not take DCX long to fix that little problem did it? AZOs!
all the rest is just drag racing 101 with one of the worst **** PCMs there is...
there are some little tricks that some use to advantage but it seems that no 2 trucks behave the same, so a lot of experimentation is in order... go to DTW or DT forums and look up the mods on the faster running guys, the more research you do the less you will spend to get your truck running faster. Always the first mod is Superchips ( until a real tune becomes available ), the best bang for the buck.

I got them from a online store RPMoutlet.com based in Texas. They are pricey, actually the pricest headers out there, but are also considered to be the best set of headers for the hemi. Mopar agrees and rebadges them as the mopar longtubes you can get from the stealerships. $1300 bucks is what I paid for them, more then most are willing to spend.
