Just wondering if anyone had some ideas on where to go to get some mods done. I have had my charger for about a month and I am starting to get itchy. I am new to the mod thing, but have been researching what is available to add HP. Just don't know where to go. Thanks.

Well I am sure you have looked around. There are a few mods available for our Chargers. What model do you have???
If you like to shop online check out the supporting vendors at the bottom of the Forums tab. Most parts that we are doing just as add-ons like rear deck spoilers, chin spoilers and Mopar CAI's you can order from your dealer.

Midnight blue RT. It is really the first muscle car that I have ever had, so I want to do it justice. My problem is I don't know much about the mechanical part of the car. I have read just about every post in this forum and have learned alot...I guess I will just have to ask questions.

Cool...First let me say welcome to the forums...
Go ahead and shoot those questions...I will try and answer any that I can and I am sure some of the other members will be glad to help you...
You may just want to let everyone know what it is you are looking for...power, looks, power and looks or handling.

Thanks.
I guess the first question is how hard is the rock blocker install. I am going to order, but am concerned about the application. Second, I want more power but want to do it the right way. Do I start with the exhaust then CAI and wait for the programmer or do I get the chip.

OK...first Rockblockers took me all of about 30 min for my head lights and side markers. The fogs took a little longer. About 45 min. I had a hard time aligning them. I did not know you could put them on wet at the time. Anyone can put these on.
Second...I have gone with Zoomers Cat-Back and a Mopar CAI and I am going to wait on a programmer. Well maybe if these guys keep up what they are saying about jet, I may just have to get one. I do not think that any Mod has to go on in any order but, if you are going to go with Jet then wait untill after the exhaust and CAI then get the Stage II chip.
Hope this heps...

I live in the same metro as rockblocker.com, and they are installing the products on my car... so I cannot comment on ease of install... Chad makes it look easy, but he has been doing it for years... I am sure some members who did the install themselves will chime in on that, and I am sure the good folks at rockblocker.com would be willing to give you some pointers...
Performance, headers will give you the best gain as far as mods... but they are spendy, and you will see better gains if combined with a cat-back and CAI, however, with the car not having a MAF system, without a programer, you will not get the most out of the CAI....
Exhaust is something I have done to every vehicle I have owned... only reason I have not done it yet, is when you are used to $300 kits for trucks, it is hard to swallow spending $1000....
A buddy of mine does custom turbo installs, but until a reprogramming is avalible, he is not even going to think about doing a kit on these... although he is excited to see what kind of gains he could get out of my car... LOL.
His turbo toy is a 1000 HP mitsu 3000GT.. outside of programming, his other concern on my car is how a turbo kit might affect the MDS system
