Hello all. My name is Derrik. I recently bought about a month ago a 2011 Dodge Charger R/T AWD. Iv always been a ford guy but moving to the mid west I needed an AWD vehicle and I wanted a sports car so I found an AWD Charger. I have a few questions about mods as I’m new to the dodge world. With mustangs, they have websites like latemodelresto and americanmuscle to order parts for. Do they have any good performance parts websites for our cars like such? I’m wanting to do a full catless exhaust with probably SLP mufflers. Where can I find good performance parts at? Also, with it being AWD, is it possible to change the gear ratio in the diff’s? Iv always had manuals so autos are also new to me, as also having and AWD vehicle. Going catless, I’d imagine I’d need to get a tuner/tune to prevent the CEL from coming on? Or are something like mil eliminators an option for the application? Also with these cars, are tuners worth spending the money on? Any other good advise from you all on good performance mods will be very helpful. I’ll also be putting lowering springs on it as well. Thank you all!

I was informed that for the AWD chargers, there aren’t any catless Mid-Pipes, that I’d have to get long tubes to use a catless midpipe. Is this true? I’m not wanting to do long tubes at the moment, just wanting to do a full catless exhaust from the stock manifolds. Is that not possible with the AWD chargers?

Derrik,
I can't answer the questions pertinent to AWD, but you can find parts all over the place. Arrington, Modern Muscle, Summit racing...you name it...just spend some time on google and perusing the forums for recommended brands. Tunes..well yes, I recommend a tune but I recommend more mods before paying for it. The canned tunes from Diablo are ok, but really to wake it up I'd do a cam swap or some other mods and get a custom tune to compliment them. Also, why would you bother going catless mids without headers or engine mods? You won't really gain anything from that idea.
