I really couldnt hold back. On the way I have the mopar shifter, plug wires, agp wastegate,stainless steelup pipe, blow off valve, 3" down pipe, and k&n intake coming. I know I need to rig up some kind of catch can, probably going to just make my own...but right now Im still not driving her too hard, and I wont be actually doing the mods for about a month or more. I am open to suggestions as to what to do next.I want to stay with the bolt ons for now, and probably this summer go to bigger and better things. I am going to go to a 3" exhaust, who makes them for the srt-4? Ive seen a couple srt-4 exhausts, but both where 2.5".

filled motor mounts or motor mount inserts.
wheel hop is NOT your friend.
with those mods, you will have lots of wheel hop.
you will need new mounts or inserts if you want traction.

Hopefully the stiffer motor mounts and inserts and stiffer bobble strut work better for the SRT-4's than they do for my R/T. My R/T still has pretty bad wheel hop. <img border="0" src=smileys/smiley5.gif border="0">

Also, Im sure some smaller wheels will help wheel hop. I went from stock 17s at the track to 16s on my svt with similar rubber, and the wheel hop stopped all together. But, motor mounts are always a good idea, especially for shifting at high speeds! <edited><editID>svtf_srt4</editID><editDate>37998.7080787037</editDate></edited>

those are nice upgrades. you should probably get the stage one because that is like a bolt on which is easy to do. 3' exhaust i don't know of any. a blow off valve would sound nice also and maybe a boost controller. oh and about wheel hop. i don't get as much wheel hop since i got a little wider set of tires.<IMG src=smileys/smiley32.gif border="0"><edited><editID>benm21</editID><editDate>38000.8531944444</editDate></edited>
