Fell in love..........Now what?
New to this site, and glad I've found it!
I have not desired a new car for ten years, lack of power and functionability made mefeel like I have been walking in a desert without water. My current full time ride, a 2000 300M, which was 2 years old when I bought it, left me desiring much more power than it could ever offer, that's what I get for not seeing what's available BEFORE I buy! I do like the car, it has 20" chrome wheels, stainless upper and lower grille, ceramic performance brakes, but it"s still GUTLESS!
fastforward>>
I fall in love with the entire SRT line, all I can do is run around like a kid in a candy store and figure out which one!!!!
I "should be" getting a black Magnum SRT8 in December, I just want to see what the aftermarket offers, I have an almost unsatiable desire for raw power, too much is just enough.
What mods have some of you done to improve your SRT Magnums?
Is the throttle body inlet the same as a 5.7? Do performance air intakes crossover (AEM, K&N etc)?
Anyone put headers and exhaust in and track or dyno tested?

RE: Fell in love..........Now what?
Since I haven't heard from anyone yet............
What header brands are most commonly being used?
What are the dimensions of the headers?
Has anyone tried the off brands yet, like Hedman #78586, they are of smaller diamter 1 1/2", but there is no mention of tube length? They also seem like they are direct "factory replacements".
I've already ordered the K&N 63-1114 FIPK. Although I am unable to find a programmer or aftermarket performance controller, anyone else had luck??

One member here (QZKING) has put together a very comprehensive page of links here.

I hope Kenny won't mind me giving this link, since it's not in his signature anymore, but he is a veritable wealth of information as you will see from his extensive research on all things magnum and especially SRT-8s.
