    Depends on what he is looking to upgrade...

    Chris hit a lot of the favorites. Pretty nice cars out of the box, but a much better sound can be obtained from an aftermarket exhaust. All depends on how much $$$ he is willing to put into it. Tuners to S/C's... the market is really starting to produce some good stuff for us. Billet Tech makes some nice pieces as well.

    ^^^ That's a pretty good list, but it depends on what you're looking for. Mine would look like this (in order):
    CAI
    High-flow cats and cat-back exhaust
    Predator
    Heads/cam
    Hotchkis sway bars - I like the Charger stock suspension and ride height, so I didn't do coil-overs
    Stainless steel brake lines

    I concur. I'd list them in the following order:

    1. CAI - $300-400+
    2. Cat-back Exhaust - Up to about $1600 (for Zoomers)
    3. Predator - About $300 - best bang for the buck mod (minimum 20hp/20tq gain with 91 oct tune, 30 and 30 with the 93 oct tune)
    4. Coilovers w/Hotchkis sways - About $2000-2400 greatly improves ride and handling. Lowering the car helps appearance as well.

    *you basically need 1&2 before you get #3.

    There are also stereo upgrades available if he is into that as well.

    Yikes man, sorry to hear your dad totalled his car, hate seeing that. Hey though the silver lining is a new charger! Recommend the same mods as everyone else here, they all good!
