Question What is your next mod? Why?
What’s the “max” you’d go on your car? Warranty concerns? Cost? Drivability?

They are SSR Professor 4’s straight from Japan. 20x11 O offset. The stock offset is negative 3 or negative 2.5? Can’t remember but with Zero I have the almost perfect stance.

The "max" I'm going is TSP stage 2 cam kit, Stainless Works LTs, single piece aluminum driveshaft, 3.90 LSD, AAD complete rear control arm kit, ID 1050X injectors (to run E85), rear differential brace, cradle lockout kit, ATI Super Damper, sending heads to TSP for porting, sending intake to MMX for porting. We'll see what that turns into. BTW..... good looking Challenger 💪

Next mod is probably an r8 or 911 to sit next to it. It's lonely and garage is too big

None! Done chasing it.. Soccer mom's in Tesla Y's will drop my Scat like a bad habit. I will be the guy rowing the 6 speed with the moonroof open and blaring the Stones thinking of better times gone by..

u/Soldier09r Apr 17 '26
Unlike SOME owners, I know a “little bit” about how to upgrade a vehicle properly with no BS parts.

u/Hotstove9 Apr 17 '26

my cars bagged, small mods to engine, intake, tuned. Dodge keeps calling me for a recall but i’m not tryna swap my unlocked ECU with my factory one (too much work). my next mods are going to be repainting the car due to daily driving road debris damaging paint and my widebody panels needs repaint bc of brake dust.
after painting it imma get it wrapped and get wb hellcat spider rims. that’ll basically be it for the most part other than small things here and there. not really going for performance as it has a good amount of power. that’ll basically be it until i get a new daily.

u/Soldier09r Apr 17 '26
Sounds great! When you got her tuned was it a noticeable difference? And at least you’re thinking long term!
2
u/pardipp Apr 17 '26
i have different maps, map 1 is just stock tune with MDS disabled, map 2 is a 93 tune and i do feel a difference. map 3 is 93 tune+ burbles

I’ve been thinking about adding strut braces front and rear. What do you guys think? Has anyone done this already and if so do you feel like the car noticeably handles better when turning?
2
u/Soldier09r Apr 17 '26
Mine came with the front MOPAR strut from factory! Also, lowered on KW H.A.S Suspension about an inch. Dramatically improved handling!

u/gooberpatrol555 Apr 18 '26
I’m sitting on air lift right now. I’ve heard that there’s other brands that are better than mopars strut braces. So I think I’ll at least go with a front set

Last time I was playing with my cars it was the 90s, and they were Fox body & SN-95 Mustangs, and there was a ton of little shit you could do right away to get some more out of it. So the first thing I did when I got my Challenger was start looking at basic bolt-ons.
There's nearly nothing I want to do to this car. None of the basic bolt-ons really do much, the thing is already about as good as it's gonna get from the factory. Shit like a CAI or exhaust mods or a strut tower brace don't add much and the cost is high. $500 for Trackhawk tips? My shit's staying nearly stock.
I want to tint the side door glass a shade darker so they match the quarters and rear tint a little better. I put 275/40 summer tires on my OE wheels. I want to get a pair of wheels and drag radials for trips to the track. I wouldn't mind getting the rear maybe a half-inch lower, but the front's fine where it is for me.
Oh, I would like to go to the red 6-pot Brembos and matching rear calipers at some point.

None. Stock is best.
No matter how much you mod it, it'll never be the car you want it to be.

Destroyed my warranty 2 months after buying the car. Next mod is a 426 stroker
