    We are doing a build on Steve's Challenger R/T, and installing the following parts:
    • Vortech Supercharger
    • Baer 6-piston Pro+ Kit (front, rear)
    • Hotchkis Sway bars (front, rear)
    • Auto Meter Boost & Fuel Pressure Gauges (plus pod)

    Here are some pics of the car, and the parts going on it.

    Test fit of 20" wheels ... plenty of room! (We also test fit with an 18" wheel and those also clear with plenty of room.)

    I love putting new mods on, it's like x-mas the whole time your installing the goods.

    Recently Steve brought his ride back to us for some further enhancements!

    To go along with the mods we installed last fall we added KW Coilovers to lower the car and provide better handling, a Paramount Stage 2 Valve Body for firmer shifts, and a Maxflow Race Bypass to help the blower let off steam a little better

    Beautiful car and nice upgrades. Has anyone been able to take a trip to the track yet to see what kind of gains you got?

    The owner isn't much of a track guy to my knowledge, but based on other S/C 5.7 Challengers we have done I would expect this car to be well into the 11's with drag radials.

    Nice. 11's are great for a fun street car. That's picking up over 2 seconds. Why don't you guys relocate to N.C. so you can do my install. :D Just kidding of course but you guys do some purdy work. Thanks for sharing.

    "SRT Killer" package, lol.....I like it. Those mods had to have TOTALLY & completely changed the way that car handled, accelerated, and stopped. Can't ask for much more than that!!! :D
