Ryan Posted November 30, 2018 Report Share Posted November 30, 2018 Just bought a 14 R/T and want to give it more juice. Any suggestions on what’s available like chips or bolt ons. Can’t find much of anything. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redtomatoman Posted November 30, 2018 Report Share Posted November 30, 2018 I am unaware of anything that will legitimately increase performance. Most people's knee jerk response is a cold air intake, but it already has one stock. I don't think there are any tuning options either. It has plenty of power already, imo. A set of performance tires may be a good start... good luck Peace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkeaton Posted November 30, 2018 Report Share Posted November 30, 2018 (edited) Correct^^ There is no aftermarket support for this vehicle as the typical purchaser uses it for what it is. A very capable people mover/grocery hauler. Not a performance based CUV. You can install a new exhaust to make it sound a little better, I’ve also heard people who use one of those “pedal commander” things to reduce lag in throttle response (have no idea it if it actually does). As stated, it already has a cold air intake, you could add a K&N drop in filter. Read some threads in this section. There are a few where people have done some things but most, if not all will have to be totally custom. We are waiting for someone to turbo or supercharge their DJ, or drop in a Hellcat engine. Welcome to the forum. Edited November 30, 2018 by jkeaton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavalLacrosse Posted November 30, 2018 Report Share Posted November 30, 2018 OP, like many others, have the hope of getting that extra kick out of their DJ. I've not seen anyone actually do it. My personal take on it is, sadly, is the DJ is a family runabout crossover. It's purpose was to replace the short-bed caravan. The V-6 isn't slow, but isn't quick either.... I've accepted the fact I bought a minivan(DJ) and not a R/T charger. And, for what it's worth- Welcome to the forms! Check out the performance section of the forums for ideas. There's been a lot a very determined people attempting to make their DJ faster. USAFGuerin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neto Posted December 1, 2018 Report Share Posted December 1, 2018 Take out the extra seats, carpet & padding, any extra weight. Then go on a diet. (Just joking. But we have the 4 banger, so be glad for what power your V6 has.) Armando G and jkeaton 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This made me chuckle as I just bought an 18sxt and I referred to it in conversation as my MANNYVAN!! jkeaton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cokey Posted March 7, 2019 Report Share Posted March 7, 2019 There's a vid on YouTube. Guy with a super charger. From riip mods. I knew those guys a decade ago when I still lived in NY. jkeaton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkeaton Posted March 7, 2019 Report Share Posted March 7, 2019 (edited) This platform has been around for 10 years. I'd hope someone has figured out how to boost one by now and actually do it. Edited March 7, 2019 by jkeaton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cokey Posted March 13, 2019 Report Share Posted March 13, 2019 Haven't seen any turbo'd ones yet. Haven't researched enough. Maybe one floating around with same engine on different make. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just gotta know what to look for and what can crossover from another vehicle and then you just gotta make it work. 500miles and zero issues.
