good morning,
I am looking for some guidance here, my dakotas acceleration is horrible and when i go up hills on the highway it slows way down and doesnt seem to have the power to accelerate, so i was wondering if you could point me in the right direction on what i would need to do to add more HP, i ve been told computer chips, cold air intake, exhaust, and headers are the way to go, but i cant find them online for a 3.9L V6 dakota, help me please, websites to purchase this equipment would really help me, thanks guys

They don't really have that much power. We recommend staying with direct fit parts. There are items that you can get, but again, we recommend staying with direct fit parts.
