RE: Planned mods for your new Challenger
I doubt any mods. IF anything, I would have to here it, would be axle back exhaust if I didn't feel the sound was a deep enough growl.
But like Paladin said, some states frown on that stuff, and living in CA, I think we are the toughest. But if the engineers did it right, like they did with the Mustang, the exhaust is pretty well engineered for stock and really the only time people make a good gain is when they change to long tubes.
As far as suspension, that is another thing I would have to wait and see if it would be worth it. I don't lower my cars, so the only thing for me would be the shocks/struts.

I plan on putting 15 inch tires, 21 inch front tires, and some Hydraulics to make that baby bounce!!!!
Then I'm gonna put some blinking track-lights in the ceiling to get that UFO effect, and paint the car Pink.....

Good Morning All,
I have quite the list….I’m planning on Enjoying my car on the street as well as SCCA Auto-crossing and the occasional Road course track day!
First I’ll Finish the retro look:
- Hood Pins
- Retro mock-up of the 70 Nose to Tail R/T stripe with a slight addition of the S in R/T
- Swap out the 6.1L Hemi hood badges for 372 Hemi Badges
- Slight modifications to the SRT grill badge
- Color match paint the:
- Front and Rear spoilers
- Rear Valance
- Side rockers
Suspension / brakes/ wheels/ Tires:
- Adjustable Coil-Overs / Shocks
- I spoke with Eibach ....they are working this item as well as asking for a test car.
- Bigger sway bars
- I spoke with Hotchkis…They are working new bars for this car
- Shock Towers Bracing
- Nothing made yet may have to Fabricate my own.
- Brembo Rotor swap
- Replace the Rotors with Brembo Vented, Cross Drilled and Slotted Same Size for Now!
- Fabricate brake cooling tubes and incorporate into the front spoiler
- Budnick wheels:
- Fronts 9 x 20’s
- Rear 10.5-11 x 20’s or 10.5-11 x 22’s not really sure till I get some measurements!!
- Tires
- Nitto INVO’s sized to the wheels.
Engine and Transmission
- Headers and complete Exhaust.
- Reprogram Computer
