No.

Not unless there is something wrong with your existing alt. or it is rated really low and you have lots of electrical equipment all on at the same time (Heater fan, electric radiator fan, big stereo system etc.).

Read this.

There are topic here that relate to enhancing the lighting on our older cars. Seems new age lamps, along with headlight relays were discussed. Read on and ask questions, these guys know Challengers.

Hey it was 10:38pm my time when I posted that answer. I had the wife nagging me to walk the dog and get to bed. :lol:

My reply might have not been "flowerly" but I think I managed to provide all the information needed in as few quick words as possible. :D
