160 point inspection doesn't mean much to me if they don't know what they are looking for. I essentially bought mine sight unseen, but I was able to take it on a test drive and check it over myself (with very limited Viper knowledge at that point) before signing on the dotted line.
If it...
It works for 2008 Vipers (and earlier) ONLY. In 2009, they introduced a check in the PCM to make sure the solenoid was functioning as intended; i.e. if you install an eliminator, it will eventually throw a code. This check is only on 2009-2010 Vipers (not sure about the Gen 5 cars).
Can't help with the ported intake, although the Gen V manifold might be an option to consider...
As for the catch can, I pieced together my own based on an Rx Performance catch can:
It's interesting that the Gen V changed placement of the PCV valve...I wonder if that valve would fit Gen IV...
If you do some searching around on here, you'll find that others have had this happen on their cars. Seems there might have been a bad batch of glass in 2008 that made them prone to shattering like this. No way to tell if it's going to happen until it does happen.
As for batteries, I'd...
Based off of your description? No way.
In addition to the negatives listed above, the stickier rubber will also throw many more rocks and crap at your paint.
Just as an example, mine was originally listed by a dealer for around $69k...they ended up dropping it to $57,900-ish, which was as low as they would go. The car was mostly stock (had some aftermarket stereo gear) with about 9,500 miles on it.
What is the primary size of other header brands? Seems like 1-3/4" is pretty common...I'd think these engines would like 1-7/8" primaries for upper end breathing. Even stock-ish 346ci LS1s benefitted from 1-7/8" headers, so I'd think it would be a good size for an 8.4L engine making almost...
