    We think the fronts are a little heavy and the rears are a little light for track use. The 2004 One Lap Viper with stock tires had Motons with 350 fronts and 850 rears. Bigger (like 315) front tires like more front spring. You need to test to find what you like at the track.

    __________________ The ECU will always try and adjust fueling to the proper mixture (14.6:1 air fuel) when in closed loop conditions (generally part load and speeds less than about 4000 rpm) - always as long as the O2 sensors are switching. When in open loop (higher loads and speeds over about...

    It really comes down to a question of philosophy. We have always been about back to basics.......

    The tire repair kit works and is a nice convenience. It multi-tasks and can be used to fill up balls or floats. Become familiar with the kit and you will have no issues.

    Every order for the '08 Viper has come straight from a dealer, and most of those came from specific customers.

    Hey Randy - I have four old muscle cars and love them but they are not necessarily of the MOPAR variety! But hey, I love all those old 60's - 70's cars! I got to tell you though, I'm thinking about selling one to get a '08, they are awesome!

    The design office had a little heart burn on some of the color combos, such as red stripes on a green car. Go to http://www.drivesrt.com/en/index.html to see all of the available combos. We are no longer taking GTS Blue orders, because we want to make sure we get in all eight colors this year.

    Nader...Since you do track your car and drive it in sub-freezing temps Schedule B in the owners manual is right up your alley. More important than the change intervals is you periodically checking the fluids especially before and after track events and at end of the year....thats the only way...

    Can't really comment on other people's stuff. We did do quite a bit of work to come up with the best possible stuff for the stock headers.

    The Comp Coupe recieved type approval by IMSA for entry into ALMS just this spring so that is why you are starting to see a few teams get their feet wet. The '08 car actually has too much HP for GT2.

    Nader - The ECU will adjust for closed loop fueling - i.e. when running part throttle at stoichiometric mixtures (based on what the O2 sensors see). When the ECU says the engine should be closed loop, it will always adjust the mixture regardless of any engine changes. We call this adaptive fuel...

    This seems very strange. Try driving the vehicle above 20mph, at this speed the TPM's will "relearn". If that doesn't work ask your dealer to try the magnet "relearn" procedure. Make sure the schrader cap is in place for that is the transmitter for the system. Your dealer should be aware of...

    Yes, the pipe is 1.5 id....it was picked for packaging concerns and to help the low end torque....

    Nader - Several variables are part of the equation when calibrating the fuel curves. Things like knock sensitivity, catalyst temperatures, valve temperatures, piston temperatures and spark plug temperatures are all dramatically impacted by fueling. We calibrate the engine as lean as we can in...

    Late 2008 availability. GTS Blue will likely be complete before the package is released. The parts will be available through Mopar.

    No, but I can tell you the 2008 oil pump flows 20% more than the 03-06!

    Man, it was sweet to be there when it happened. The Corvette time was from earlier C&D testing and we're pretty sure it was on a much cooler day. The time will probably never be official because it was not done during the C&D event even though Gilles drove. He didn't do a bunch of laps...
