    Afternoon all, I bought a 2012 SXT and I would have loved to get one with a bigger motor but current finances didn't allow it. But I would like to know what type of options that I may have to put a little more "get up and go" in her. I don't know that much about cars as I am learning as I go with this one. I am open to all suggestions. ex, gears, cold air intake. exhaust...I hear these things but yet again which type of each should I get, whatever you guys think that could help me out would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

    Welcome !! The best place to start is either the exhaust or CAI or both. Then a tuner and then fine tune from there.

    Howdy JM, from Oklahoma. My first Challenger was an SE. Same advice as above, CAI, exhaust, tuner are all options.

    What do you think about also stepping up the throttle body assembly. Also, I have been reading up on either k&n or Airaid CAI,s I can't figure out which is better. I don't care about the money a lot of people like k&n but Airaid seems to be made with premium materials. Any thoughts?

    Check out 3G's vendor page on our forum. They have a CAI called the Big Bully and it is awesome.
