OK, where the hell are all the Dodge Charger owners up here?... I know I am not the only one with one around tampa, so where the hell are the rest of you?....

HAHAHAHAH, you might be, the Mopar crowd are in the small numbers it seems. It was always this way even back in the 60's. get with me and let me know what Charger you scored.

There are plenty of them around, nobody posts here is all. We have an 06 R/T. There's one.

seems most i help are in the national club all over the country. Since we are direct with mopar performance and do the Hemi upgrades for them i hear about all the outside groups.. we just had a meet at the Don Garlits car show for all the Magnum, Charger, 300C, SRT8.

It's time to get a more localized group together if we could find enough to join. People like to meet up and see what everyone has. you can email me off the website, South East R/T!, Custom Engine Specialists

I've been a member of the westcoast mopar club for a few years, and really don't even get involved anymore with anything club related. I don't really enjoy shows at all anyway, if there isn't a race involved, I don't go to the show. Something about sitting around for 8 hours constantly cleaning my truck that I got sick of. I'd rather just run the snot out of it and win money with it.

i did all that as well. then i stripped off parts for new parts development on my Dak RT. it was already at 509 hp but that wasn't good enough, is it ever...hahahah

now all have been completed except for the billet fuel rails and when those are done no more excuses. i have to get back to work and finish it up.

took my SRT4 to some shows and then got bored with it. have been in the West Coast board for sometime trying to support the Mopar product since we are direct with Detroit for Mopar performance but you can only do so many car shows.

I started the Southeast R/T club and we had over 300 rt's in there for years. Now most have moved on but still holding over 150. We had some really great meets and made some history. Just all quiet now.

Mostly doing engine builds, head porting and parts out of state and country now. I know some of the youngers in the Honda forum were supporting V&M Racing and that made me happy.

Van and i have been partners for years and he actually started all the Cylinder head porting on my Mopar RT heads. noone could beat them but with smoking as much as he was doing, it didn't take long for cancer to hit his throat and he couldn't keep up. just saw him a couple nights ago and he still has issues with it after radiation treatments but keeps plugging along.

we now have custom C&C porting programs. Lots better power and consistancy.

One day we'll have to hook up. would be nice to get the SRT4 guys together as well.

well im glad there are some out there...I was just curious as to who else around here has the charger and what their experiences, likes/dislikes are..main upgrades and recommendations are..I just bought an 06' Charger SE this month..lovin it so far..wanting to put an exhaust on it in the next month or so, even though its a V6, but want more of a rumble from the exhaust note. Anyone has any put on yet around here?

Most are the 5.7 and we did a group buy on the new ATI Procharger that made some good HP for them. Headers were added with exhaust mods. We have C&C porting for the heads and they picked up a pretty good punch from that.
Stay away from that piece meal Paxton kit from a website source in Calif. Poorly designed, not engineered, not R&D'd, it will cost you an engine.

The V6 won't have much offered for it. For exhaust mod's you need to go over to Scottie's in North Tampa. He does all the performance Exhaust work for most in the Tampa area and is the magic man for that stuff. Email me private or call and i'll get you his private number. Just make an appointment and i know you will be happy as most are.

hey thanks for the tip..I will def be getting in touch with you when i decide to get the exhaust put on, but like I said it wont be for at least another month or so, but when I do i will let you know..And actually the funny thing is this is the Wifey's CAR...this is what she wanted, so we ended up getting it..

southeastrt

Well, the good part is you scored the car and it's in the family. Thats a nice ride and there are some ladies out there that will get into it off a light too..hhahahahaha
