How do you "gut" cats?
That is why I said "if you have hi-flo cats." Because I read (and saw in your picture) that you did. Cats do not eat a lot of power on a normally aspirated engine unless it is a monster. I say don't bother. It will just make the car loud and stinky not to mention not environmentally friendly...- PhoenixGTS

How do you "gut" cats?
If you have hi-flo cats why even bother? I run stock cats with the inlet and outlet modified by Lou to 3" and don't feel bad about that choice at all. Extra 5 hp isn't worth being ghetto in my book. See. I did not even mention the environment.- PhoenixGTS

NEW TIRES! Went w/Toyo R888s all around (pictures)
Second follow-up post: I put my newly rebuilt rear shocks in last Saturday and have been driving the Viper ever since. Finally was able to turn some corners under power and I have to say huge thumbs up to the Toyo R888s. These tires rawk! I'm not sure where I could find the lateral limit in...- PhoenixGTS

Viper=Gawkers dream
I saw two F430 Spyders next to each other at a stop light last week - and they weren't even together - one guy turned. We have quite a few Vipers here, but when something like a Ferrari 599 passes you - that is impressive.- PhoenixGTS

VCA should set up a barter exchange for Chryco $25k buyout coupons
If the rules allow it, VCA should broker paying hourly Chrysler employees for their $25k new car purchase rights under the new buyout offer. EP+ plus a discounted coupon might equal 2008 Viper for $60k net. Sweet! Chrysler offers buyouts to all of its hourly workers - Feb. 2, 2009- PhoenixGTS

Owners of 08s with 3.55 Gears Report
I think you need both - but then I have never driven a 600+ hp 08-09. With my Gen II height rear tires, 3.55 rear ratio and .80 5th and .64 6th ratios I have six gears with smooth even steps to a theoretical top speed at the redline in 6th of right at 200 mph. Since my car would not make it to...- PhoenixGTS

Funny story about 3rd time my rear Aldan shocks blew
Follow-Up Post: I removed my shocks on a Saturday, Aldan received them on Tuesday and turned them around in less than 24 (now with more damping than before), I received them on Friday and the car was back to gether exactly one week later. Rear might have too much compression damping now, but in...- PhoenixGTS

Don't Gen III half-shafts have a better slip-joint? & do they fit Gen IIs?
Years ago I wheel hopped my car hard several times and blew out a universal joint on the driver's side half-shaft. I bought a low-mile take-off used half-shaft for $100 and was good to go. I remember hearing at that time that the issue with the Gen II half-shafts is the the slip-joint binds in...- PhoenixGTS

How would this wheel look on my ACR
Sorry. For a lot of us on the left coast, wide lip wheels are for east coast guido pimps who drive Gallardos or M6s not real sporting cars. One piece or nothing, if he wants to pimp he would get HRE P40 Monoblocks in the brushed aluminum finish.- PhoenixGTS

Funny story about 3rd time my rear Aldan shocks blew
They always do it for free so I end up paying one-way shipping (me-to-them). I believe I have assisted them in improving their product (if they are smart enough to built others like they have modified mine). I hated the Eibachs that were on the car and I simply cannot spend $3.5k+ on shocks (I'm...- PhoenixGTS

Removing the headliner... PITA?
It is easy. I recall one end (probably front) has a lip all the way across that hold the liner, then the pull out attachments do the rear of the work. I took mine out to replace the sagging cargo net and it was not difficult.- PhoenixGTS

?Zero Interest Loans, More Discounts, Monday 1/26?
Autoweek has posted an article about the "Employee Pricing Plus Plan" indicating EP + $6k back for 08s but for the Sprinter. After all the above discussion, is this true? Or only $1k back on an 08 Viper? And on top of all this we can get 0% financing if we have a credit score over 800...- PhoenixGTS

Gen 2 seats... Anbody have a set lying around they would love to get rid of?
If you buy me a nice set of Recaros you can have my stock seats. I am really interested in some racy one-piece or reclinable seats. I've posted asking for suggestions in the past with little response. For some reason, it seems seats have a really weak distribution system compared to other car...- PhoenixGTS

Funny story about 3rd time my rear Aldan shocks blew
The problem is that the Eibachs are too low and too stiff and my car just did not work well with them. Perhaps if I would have adjusted the stock shocks to maximum damping they would have been better, but I hated them. The current state of my Aldans blows the Eibach/stock shocks away - they are...- PhoenixGTS
