    S1 T56 sequential shifter

    For a static trans sitting on the bench with full synchros and all...indeed pretty impressive. If it hadn't been stated, I'd of thought the trans had no internals...but the OP states a 100% stock t-56. I wonder how much additional stress is put on the shift forks since with the normal shifter...

    Florida car tax

    I can't recall the specifics, but when I moved here from AZ, there was a big title fee I had to pay to change the registration from AZ to Florida. But once that issue was resolved, the annual cost is somewhere around $30.00.

    First Post

    Definitely part of the experience. Unlike any other car, you have to 'plan' when, where, and in what weather you'll take a drive. After 8+ years with my GTS, my pulse still gets going backing it out of the driveway since I never know what reaction I'll encounter on any given day.

    NEED EXPERTISE---SCT Tuner vs. PCM/ECM upgrade

    That's the key....Time and Motivation...in which I have ample. Now if I would have had to put a value on all this 'learning' over the years, I'd be into the 10's of thousands of dollars for my tune. So scheduling a session with a reputable tuner for $500-$1000 for a great tune is really a...

    NEED EXPERTISE---SCT Tuner vs. PCM/ECM upgrade

    You are 100% correct! The definition files are basically non-existent and you basically have to do hours upon hours upon hours of research, trial and error, and attempting to use what you know or can extract from HP Tuner and AEM websites to get started. I must have flashed my PCM 100 times...

    NEED EXPERTISE---SCT Tuner vs. PCM/ECM upgrade

    Many use PCMSCAN and then modify the fuel and timing tables in the SCT software based on the needed corrections you get when viewing the PCMSCAN logs. You can use most ODB-II scan tools if they allow you to select and log the PIDs of interest. So its a two-step process. Datalog your OBD-II...

    NEED EXPERTISE---SCT Tuner vs. PCM/ECM upgrade

    Just loaded my SCT ProRacer sopftware to my new Surface Pro Tablet. Ready to go do some tuning since I also was able to load my PCMSCAN software to the same. Go with the SCT since you can reflash as many time as you want if you also get the PRORACER software w/SCT dongle matched to your...

    The slowest viper in the world

    On a related note...I was asked the other day about gas mileage. Said I get 18 highway and 10 city. The guy I was chatting with in his Prius stated he was over 40 MPG and he remarked that it was over 4x my mileage. I laughed and told him "Maybe so, but I have 100x the fun you have driving a...

    The slowest viper in the world

    Central Florida is a great place to own a Viper...plus there are a lot of long straight lonely back roads to break the law on. But, it you do something stupid out there, you may be sitting for a while or may never be found....

    Tampa Viper Owners

    No kidding! I was in the AOR for the past month and missed out on some of this thread. I'm driving the GTS in to work tomorrow (LORD willing). I'll check with Terri in the AM...she sits one office over from me.

    There are a few ROE blowers out there for sale...just saying. These are very therapeutic.

    Power Steering Issue 97 GTS - Question for members

    My ROE replacement aligned perfectly without any washers, shims, or any nonsense. And it didn't come with any 'washers' either. But mine is about 7 yrs old though.

    DanB, That ROE blower isn't installed correctly.

    Tampa Viper Owners

    Where on MacDill? I'm in CENTCOM and I drive my 2001 GEN-II (Yellow with the white stripe and black GEN-V wheels) to the base a lot this time of year.

    Need help with a Roe Supercharger, anybody have one?

    Dan, So...whatever happened here? Inquiring minds want to know. Hate to have first-time owner and fellow ROE owner in dire straights. Looking for good news or a happy owner.

    gen 4 1.8 Rockers?

    I priced a complete set of GEN-IV factory rockers for use on a set of bare GEN-IV heads...and then contacted T&D regarding their GEN-IV assemblies. All I can say is not in my budget.

    Does anyone ever see the "Home page" for this site?

    Never go there. My Favorite loads right to the Forums page. In fact, I'd lose any Jeopardy question that asked anything about this site other than the Forum page. I'm pretty much eyes wide shut here...

    7 YR. Warranty on Viper

    What's incorrect? Seems exactly what you stated. The Extended warrantee run concurrently with the factory warrantee. The only benefit would be if you were able to buy a Max Care 7 year plan at the end of the 3/36 factory warrantee and have it take effect at that time...not roll back to the...

    Mixing fuels

    Drop a can of TORCO in it and have a nice day. Use it when you need it. Keep a can stashed in the car for those unexpected times.

    Nice. No matter the day or time, that's the primal reaction that I get from all walks of life. Went for a drive in the greater Tampa area yesterday....beautiful sunny day....and time and time again, waves, thumbs-up, smartphone pics, and cars weaving around to get next to me. I feel like I'm...

    No money to fund racing but Dodge has money for stupid stuff like this:

    Finally took a look at the ad....No big deal IMO. Just marketing to a 'segment' of car enthusiasts....not just any and all potential buyers. Just like not all TV viewers watch Gas Monkey Fast & Loud. Just a segment of viewers. Now if this ad ran during the superbowl....eeegads
