Help and Old Dodge dude out?
Just bought my wife an 04 stratus coupe. would love to wake it up a bit, but do not want to dig too deep into the internals. I am mostly looking for bonafide bolt ons to pep it up as much as possible. Any suggestions on where to look for these mods, I have been searching, and always come up empty handed on Stratus stuff, plenty for the Neon, PT,Charger and the like, but nothing for what i got. Please help
The Stratus doesnt really have much in the way of bolt-ons. It's just not one of those cars. The most common things you can do at a relatively low cost are these....
Cold Air or Forced Induction Kits.... relatively cheap between $150-300 dollars. You can look on eBaY and find some deals sometimes.
New Exhaust/Headers......anything aftermarket is better then the OEM ones. I would drop the entire OEM exhaust and put a complete new one on. You can leave the current cat alone, but just replace the piping all the way back....
Bigger/Better Throttle body.....this one should be self explanatory.
EDIT: He has the 2.4L 4cyl.. so that will change it. You can use some of 2.4L parts, but I dont know much about which.
