    Regarding the decel popping the Grailkeeper retired and Dick took it out. The fault was set once you installed the high flow cats becaust the controller logis is set to operate within the production cat flow range. Even by clearing the fault it will return overtime. Sorry cannot talk about...

    We tend to stick with the major manufacturers of lubricants; their testing is usually much more thorough than a smaller company because testing is expensive! We have never gone wrong with brands like Mobil, Shell, Pennzoil and so on. We have on occasion tested the latest greatest oils and found...

    Ufortunately, the dealers are correct - the Ipod kit is not compatible with the Viper electrical system. As for the UConnect - why would you even think about talking on the phone when you are driving a Viper.:drive:

    The stripes will be inboard of the wing stanchions. The stanchions will be body color as they were in 08 and 09. Yes the stripes will be painted into the license plate pocket. First time since the original blue and white GTS! Unfortunately we don't have the dimensions in front of us to...

    There were no changes to bushings, so these alignment settings are achievable. Keep in mind that we also updated the damper tuning and front bar to accomodate the new tire characteristics.

    First of all, you drive your Viper on 30-40 degree days!?! I hope we are talking about Celcius not Farenheit. All kidding aside, was the fluid changed in response to the high shift effort? Do you know what fluid the trans was filled with? Was there any change in behavior with the fluid...

    Hi Bob, local Pizza is more our style than exotic food but next time we are in town you can take us to an Outback! 2 - The ACR-X forged pistons were developed with the help of a couple of our suppliers, Mahle and Arrow. We had a difficult time finding any forged piston that worked as well at...

    Sorry Jon. The 2010 vented end plates are designed to pull air out of the wing corner not let crosswind pass through. You should be able to buy the 2010 end plates as separate parts but they will not be available for a while. The end plates were designed to work with the new wing rear edge...

    1) Can't comment on future products. 2) You may want to try to re-train the voice recognition feature since you had it reprogrammed. 3) We recommend taking the tire to a Goodyear retail facility and have them review it, since the tires have an independent warranty. 4) We can't comment on...

    The 2009 bezel lowers the window lift switches. The cradle that holds the switches to the bottom of the bezel is also new to line-up the switch height. If the 2009 bezel and switch cradle are used together then it should fit into the 2008. Wiring is the same and you have clearence below the...

    This would be a huge undertaking becuase it will require both electronic and mechanical updates only available from the Gen IV. At this point, you'd better off buying a Gen IV instead.

    The ACR is balanced with a bias toward more rear downforce. This gives the car a tendency for slight aero-induced understeer and makes the high speed handling manageble for the weekend track rat. The upper dive planes on the ACRX give the pro driver a greater ability to adjust for a neutral...

    It will be some work to install it correctly as it has attachments on the back of the seat that attached to brackets that are welded on to the frame rails. You would also have to cut away the carpeting behind the seat. Lastly, the upper part of the seat will interfere with the door trim so...

    The lower fascia deflectors effectively reduce drag, and can be installed on Gen III cars. These parts are available through Mopar currently, just make sure you install the center air dam and side deflectors as a set for proper performance.

    Art - Arrow has not claimed 20 -25 HP with the ported intake, I think those numbers came for someone with an optimistic chassis dyno! More realistic would be 10 - 12 HP. We have looked at a similar package for the ACR-X but felt that 640 HP was a good place to stop for now. The ACR-X package is...

    If it is sometimes difficult to shift into 1st (or reverse) with all other shifting OK, I would take a look at your clutch fluid, cuz maybe the clutch is not quite releasing quick enough... maybe due to a little air or moisture in the fluid. In other normal driving, the trans synchros have...

    The viper cab is technically forward of the rear wheels, but the concept you are referring to was used mostly with sedans and in no way part of the viper design.
