    had the cats changed and besides the exhaust note changing some I still don't have power down low. I'm going to pull the spark plugs tonight and do a compression test.

    My Paxton Story....

    The compression test kit I have requires me to start the engine with all the spark plugs removed. Is there another type of compression test kit I should get or am I fine with this one. Never done a compression test. My kit says crank the car, let it go through 4 strokes or until the pressure...

    My Paxton Story....

    Thanks again Plum. I did the test and could barely feel any exhaust at 1 foot away. What damage can come from having driven with the cats in this condition as I m sure this happened last week and I have been driving it most of the weekend with some drag races in there? The car felt low on...

    My Paxton Story....

    Yep, hi flow cats. Are u getting at that one is probably bad? Hi flows have about 6k on them. Any way to test or is the sound they're giving off the test? Seems to come coming from passenger side.

    My Paxton Story....

    Well after a sunday of racing. Dragging racing with some friends on a blocked off back street....I surely need to upgrade me clutch (currently stock) and my exhaust note sounds different when I get on it. If I rev it in neutral, sounds normal, but if I rev it in gear or if Iam driving in third...

    Lamborghini Building Track-Oriented Murciélago & Testing it at the RING!

    For those who say vipers ain't as rare as a lambo, u must live in a cold state as I've seen more lambos then vipers and I Live in Washington DC. Down Florida lambos are a dime a dozen but u rarely see vipers there.

    My Paxton Story....

    my paxton is making 645 rwhp (mustang dyno) and with the head/cam job, I am making plenty down low and would not want anymore as plum said, driving, for me, would be difficult. Changing the pulley would bring it on a tad earlier which is the future plan along with a fuel system. Now If I would...

    My Paxton Story....

    I think its all in taste and how you like the power delivered. Would be nice if the paxton made more power down low or came in at 2k on the stock kit. Some argue that the paxton makes plenty of power down low but those individuals seem to be making 800rwhp plus to the tires so of course your...

    Is the general thought that breakin is 500 miles

    ive heard some many different things from various engine builders and Viper tuners. Some same have at it on day one, others says break it in for 1k miles and upping the rpms 500 every 200 miles starting at 3k i believe. When I had my engine rebuilt it was a B* to do the 1k break in which I...

    My Paxton Story....

    took the car out yesterday evening runs/drives fine. I would like to give my opinion on the Roe vs paxton debates that I see every now and then. Never driven a Roe but I must say, if a Roe car making same power, say 600rwhp and a paxton making 600rwhp were to race in the 1/4, I would say...

    My Paxton Story....

    Hey Sweetride, how did the woodhouse mounts help with your paxton? I had them in my other GTS (head work) and they made a big difference. Ill check the coolant levels when I get home as I think the intercooler could be it as it was directly in the middle front of the car, right under the...

    SCT tune / dyno results on my 1998 GTS.

    If anybody is interested in the SCT flash, I have a brand new one I purchased from Sean Roe that I never had a chance to use. It has three tunes in it (tune -light head work, t-stat, flywheel, catback, ad wires). Seam has agreed to offer anyone who buys it three tunes for $100 (regular $75...

    My Paxton Story....

    I started the car up twice yesterday and drove it some and didnt notice any coolant. This morning I put a large sheet of white paper under the car and didnt notice any dips. Ill ask the previous owner about the rev limiter. Didnt think of that. Things happen so quick in that car. Im now...

    My Paxton Story....

    Well I left the closed course and then headed to walmart. The heads are not strykers, but stock heads ported by JM with jesel rockers. I did smell a faint something right as I backed off but it went away within quickly. The coolant seemed to be in the middle, not to the side. If I notice...

    My Paxton Story....

    Well I was out today enjoying my Paxton GTS. I have always heard 4th pulls like a mother f***** but man I had no idea. 4th pulls like a freight train. I smile everytime I hit it in 4th. As I was out driving I passed a big field where 3 kids soccer games were going on. As I drove pass...

    Lifting Hood After Driving Due To Heat

    never heard that. I know some do if they plan on long storage or whenever you put the car on a lift or jack it up. But I would assume at the track it would help some with cooling.

    Does 6th gear kill the cluth if going under 120mph

    as some have said, sounds like BS. I have driven plenty in 6th with no problems at speeds of 75+. See if the seller will go lower on price (say 2000k lower). You can get a used trans for 1k and installation is a little over 2 hrs (at least for my Viper tech). But that 6th gear thing sounds...
