Title: How To Build A Custom Dodge Charger?
Threaded Mode
#1
Modified Dodge Charger is what every gearhead aspires to build. It takes a lot of work, but the end result is worth it.

Usually, the customization process begins with the exterior. You can add a new paint job, spoilers, or even decals to make your Charger unique. After that, you can move on to the interior and install new seats, dashboards, or flooring. And finally, you can modify the engine and suspension to get the most out of your car. Building a custom Dodge Charger is a lot of work, but it's definitely worth it.

How to build a custom Dodge Charger?

The Dodge Charger is a sleek, powerful, long-lasting, and attractive sedan that is recognized for its dependability in almost any weather. It also includes a thunderous 456 horsepower engine and plenty of customization possibilities, including spoilers and glossy wheels.

The 2022 Charger comes in eight unique trim levels: SXT, GT, R/T, Scat Pack, Scat Pack Widebody, SRT Hellcat Widebody, SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody, and finally the SRT Jailbreak. You can purchase this style-packed car for as little as $32 500 or cough up the big bucks at $86 595. But no matter which you choose between the trims mentioned earlier, you are promised comfort and performance befitting of a Dodge Charger.

Exterior

There are plenty of elements you can change on the exterior of your Dodge Charger. You can start with a new paint job, which is always the first thing people see. A fresh coat of paint can make any car look brand new, and it's a great way to show off your unique style. Painting is one of the most common options for Dodge Charger customization. Usually, it costs around $800 to have your car painted, but the price will vary depending on the color and design you choose.[Image: 714a702546d218b8cfad5acee287e57e324.png]

After that, you can add some new spoilers or decals to really make your Charger stand out. These are relatively inexpensive modifications that can really change the look of your car. Spoilers usually cost around $100, and decals can be found for as little as $50.

If you really want to make a statement, you can install a new set of wheels. This is one of the most popular modifications for Dodge Chargers, and it's easy to see why. A new set of wheels can completely transform the look of your car, and they're also a great way to improve performance. Wheels typically cost around $1,000, but the price will vary depending on the style and size you choose.

Such mods as high-performance suspension systems, brakes, and exhaust systems can also be installed to make your Charger perform even better. These mods are typically more expensive, but they're definitely worth it if you're looking to get the most out of your car. For example, a high-performance suspension system can cost around $2,000, and a new set of brakes can cost around $1,500. Usually, a modded Dodge Charger that has adaptive damping suspension and performance shift indicator will set you back $3,495.

You have the choice of four engines when you purchase a brand new 2022 Dodge Charger: the standard 292-horsepower 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine or three Hemi V8 engines with increased power. Usually, they come in the following forms:
  • The 5.7-liter Hemi V8 with 370 horsepower and 395 lb.-ft. of torque
  • The 6.4-liter Hemi V8 with 485 horsepower and 475 lb.-ft. of torque
  • The supercharged 6.2-liter Hemi SRT Hellcat V8 with 717 horsepower and 650 lb.-ft. of torque
  • The supercharged 6.2-liter Hemi SRT Hellcat Redeye V8 with 797 horsepower and 707 lb.-ft. of torque

There are a few key engine mods you can do to your Dodge Charger to give it more power. Installing a performance chip or flash tuner is one of the easiest and most affordable ways to increase power. These devices modify the programming of the engine management system to change the way the engine runs. They can add anywhere from 5-100 horsepower, depending on the chip or tuner.

How long does it take to get a Dodge Charger build?

After you place your order, sit tight for approximately 70-90 days. Our mechanics will keep you updated every step of the way so that by the time your new ride arrives, you'll be more than excited!

Of course, the waiting time strongly depends on the type of modification you want. If you're planning on adding a V8 engine, the process will take longer than if you're just installing a new sound system. Moreover, when you choose a package of mods, the process will be quicker than if you order each mod separately.

Also, banking on the proficiency of a mechanic is crucial. A good one will have your car done in no time, while a not-so-good one could make you wait for months. To sum it up, the waiting time for your build to be complete varies from 2 to 3 months.

Can you upgrade your Dodge Charger on a budget?

When you don`t want to spend a lot of money, but still desire to have a modded Dodge Charger - there are a few things you can do. One of the most popular and cheapest ways to upgrade your Charger is to add a cold air intake. This simple mod can cost as little as $100, and it can add up to 10 horsepower.
