Power wise only...nitrous gives you the best bang for the buck. But you can still do a cam, UDP, TB, all the suspension mods, and of course my favorite, an SRT-4 turbo.

the best bang for the buck, for YOU, right now is an exhaust system and header.

Good job, post pics when you can!!!

P.S. that is without nitrous or turbo ofcourse.

Hey tooslow did you have the limp mode problem when you put on a 60mm TB? I've heard a lot of 03 R/T owners run into this problem...(which is why i havent done one yet).

I didn't doa tb for that reason but there is flash for that it is tsb from dodge that should solve it if you go search on the 2gnneon site with the black background you should be able too find it. It was on there. It is supose too take the bog in 2nd gear away too. So it is something you guys should look into.

oh come on jared, eventually when u get MS (like me and a bunch of others) and finally turbo it, your gonna need it so you might as well go ahead and get it. I'm planning on finally breaking down this summer and getting it. If I hadn't got screw over on my exhaust system (long story) I would have already had it but u know how it goes with money. plus I might actually have a 40 hour work week job so it will definatly bring in some dough.
