Possible weak spot is the torque converter- I bought a '99 Dodge used, and it has Banks turbo, big exhaust, etc., etc., put on "aftermarket". Engine is strong as a bull, but torque converter started slipping under load. Had to replace it, and tranny guy said it is common when truck was not "heavy duty" from the factory, but engine was later juiced by the buyer. The outfits pushing the turbos and speed equipment won't mention it, because it would double the cost of the "hop-up", and they would probably lose a sale. There are 3 "levels" of torque converter, and you've got to get into the factory "heavy duty" packages before they put in the heavier TC's. Dodge dealer could probably decode it from the numbers and tell you what its got.
