Car looks great, those things sound meannnnn! When I was at the track last weekend there was one there who I think was a regular. I got to line up against him and thought it would be a pretty good race. That was until I heard his car sound very very "lobbey" and I could tell he had some serious work done.
So we get to the tree and bam, off the bat I get a car length and I was pretty excited then I think I could almost hear him laughing at me as he blew past after the 60.
To make a long story short, I ran a 12.8, that guys beast ran like an 11.4.
And oh ya, to top it off, he left his babies car seat in the back while he raced. Kind of like rubbing it in that he didn't need to do any weight reduction and he'd still win.

I did need to do something with the handling though. I'm tired of the rear end wanting to fly out. I'm trying to lesson that more then anything. The front & rear bars, are my attempt at that & then I will go sway bars if I have too. I'm not lowering it. I draw the line there.And I have a stack performance catch can.

Stronger and lighter than the rest 
I don't have strut braces on my car...just springs, shocks, and sways...and a subframe brace.
The sways should do more for you than the strut braces.

400 to the wheels is great!
My end goal...which is WAY down the line is to hopefully get around 450 to the wheels.

"baller wheels" are more or less a waste...the Stock SRT wheels are probably lighter than most of the aftermarket unless you realllllly want to lay out some coin.
mod it a bit more... Maybe an exhaust and headers?

Pretty damn good with those dyno numbers, you've got me beat by 15hp & 5ftlbs!
Were you able to feel the difference with those rear strut bars. Also, do you have any other suspension upgrades on the 300?

Sway bars are next. The spring & shocks are fine & tuned to the car. Better tires too, but I have to wear the current set out.
I replaced my brake pads on the brembos this weekend too. Very easy! I was surprised.

Nice numbers Do you plan on going to track at all? Id like to see what time it could run.

Still trying to get to the track...
Additions....
I blew the engine mounts, the 6MT Challenger has upgraded engine mounts so I installed those ones. They are more of a solid design & they last.
Put the Hankook V12 tires on, big suckers 255-45-20's
Installed THICK sway bars
Upgraded the factory kicker amp to the higher wattage one.
I needed more bass, Upgraded the subwoofer & added a better sub amp, it's all hidden & I have my trunk space.
