Of my three magnums and my 300SRT my 300SRT has the most mods and I didn't do 'em. The only thing I have added is a hurst shifter knob and hurst emblem.

Here is what the previous owner added and it doesn't include a lot of the cosmetic options; I love THIS CAR!

As many threads as we get on here I thought I'd throw this out there. I did this on the OC not too long ago and I think it's pretty sobering for those thinking about getting serious about performance in their cars.

For those interested in what it really costs to go fast:

Procharger - $5,800
SHR or BB trans - $4,000
Flex plate - $200 stupid not to change while you're in there
Stall converter 3,200 to 3,600 - $400 to $1,000 pick your poison
LSD getrag with upgraded axles and driveshaft - $2,500 to $4K if you go 8.8 route
High flow cats - $450 (I'd gut the stock ones and save the dough if you can)
Upgraded heads - $2,000
Cam - $400
80# injectors - $400
Twin Pump fuel system with larger lines - $1,000
Fuel rails - $200
Underdrive pulley - $200
Race BOV to run high boost + custom fab work - $300
Predator Tuner - $300
2 step colder NGK spark plugs - $100
Phenolic spacers - $150
Ported intake - $1,000
Headers - $1,500
Forged shortblock - $3,500
CMR Tune - $500 to $800

Now for handling
BCR coilovers - $900
Front strut brace - $280
Rear strut brace - $250
Bump steer kit - $150
Hotchkis Sway Bars - $350

Labor for all of the above including tune - $2,500 to $3,500

Plus you can't forget your track day rim and tire setups:

These I did NOT get with the car; but everything else, I did.
18x9, 18x10 staggered cobra replicas - $500
Machined hubs to 71.5mm - $75
M&H Racemaster 325/40/18 drag radials - $600
Continental Sport cup slicks for road course duty - $465
Mount and dismount - $80 per set

So all total figure between $30,000 and $33,000 depending on how far you go. Now if you want to stay around 530rwhp you can drop a number of items like the forged motor, cam, heads, etc. and stay around $20K, but to get over 600rwhp you'd better be ready to pony up some serious cash. Hope that helps somebody.
