It appears that the upgrade forces a login and many, many of you have forgotten your passwords and didn't set up any reminders. Contact me directly through helpmelogin@dodgecharger.com and I'll help sort it out.

Looking good man!  :yesnod: Were all of these mods done after you bought the car? I thought the wheels and maybe the engine were done before you got it? Either way, it's a smoking ride.

ps- Staten Island All Mopar Show is coming up. Saturday, June 3rd at Angiuli Dodge. Hope you can make it.  :wave:

Mike, whats your take on XV Motorsports new suspension ?  I am seriously considering buying the whole set up from front to back and then doing my brake upgrade.  I just can't decide which direction to go.

If I leave the suspension stock (more or less) I gotta spend the $$ somewhwere and those blowers are just hella sexy......

This ticket is only $69.00 ?  If I'd have known that I'd have been going FASTER !

When I got the car the body and wheels were done, as was the motor... mostly - we've basically taken a great starting platform and improved every part of it. We've redone the suspension, transmission, rear-end, interior, cooling system, fuel system, ignition, carburation, stereo system, internal wiriring, headlights, brakes etc... etc... etc... I don't think there is a part on this car that I have not hit on in some way or another since I purchased the car.

Again, this was a good starting platform which was made into a GREAT CAR.

One reason that the motor (internally anyway) has been left alone is that I wanted to build a platform around it that can handle 650-750hp without ANYTHING breaking and still be fully functional street machine. That is why everything was done BEFORE the engine. The platform as WHOLE unit needs to be able to control the power before power is put into the car.

Sublime... I am just waiting to see what B-body XV Motorsports set-up is. If it is as good I as I THINK it will be I WILL purchase it for this car - hell, maybe if we purchase 2 full systems we'll get a discount no? That may be a winter project, we'll see what they come up with.

That is a beautiful Charger.   Your suspension setup is very close to what I had planned for mine, and I'm glad to say that after seeing the stance on your car, I'm definately doing it.  Well done.
