Gonna need a little more than that, what do you want to do with it, 1/4 mile beast, daily driver, autocross? Budget? I'm just asking what I know everyone else is going to ask as well. Start by answering those questions and you'll have a good base to go off of. Then we can get into carbs or EFI, 2bbl, 4bbl, 2x2bbls, 2x1bbls, dual exhaust, transimissions, rear gearing, head porting, overbore, rebuilds, cams (that's a touchy subject around here btw), etc, etc... Hope that gives you something for your mind to chew on.

Where are you located at, and what is your Duster equipped with?(automatic tranny, 225 or 198, what kind of rear end/gear ratio, etc?)

Are wanting more power or keeping your mileage?

Ah, the Holy Grail. More power but don't hurt the gas mileage. Truthfully it's almost impossible to have it both ways. The only way to get more power is to either burn more gas or burn the same gas more efficiently. Most performance improvement techniques focus on the former. Those that attempt to do the latter tend to be expensive.
