Hi I'm new to this board and am looking for some help.

I'm 17 years old and I'm driving a 2003 Dodge Stratus Coupe (SXT). I'm looking to make some modifications to this car (its the base model) and essentially I have no idea where to start. Obviously at age 17, I'm constrained to somewhat of a limited budget, but am looking for apperance upgrades and perfornance enhancements.

I would put my budget at around $5000, but feel free to make any suggestions you can think of.

Thanks for this help. I look forward to talking on this board, especially when I ruin my financial future and take out a loan for the new Challenger SRT-8 (I'm not kidding)

 

Welcome to the forum man.. You might also want to check out www.2gstratus.org, As far as some upgrades to look into is suspension, drilled and slotted rotors, CAI intake SRI intake, exhaust, just about anything you can imagine with a $5000 budget excluding FI..

 

Yea 5000 is quite a budget, go nuts
