    AEM vs. VEC2 & BEST POWER ADDER FOR H/C CAR???

    I haven't messed with the tuning myself at all. They were put in when I got my AEM to go with the Heffner s/c system, and John Reed of Torquefreaks (who I believe is the guy who developed the knock sensors) tuned the car. Then when Jason converted the car to twins he tuned it, and he said...

    AEM vs. VEC2 & BEST POWER ADDER FOR H/C CAR???

    Not true. I've had them on my car for over a year. Horsepowerfreaks sells the AEM kit with knock sensors, and I'm sure Jason Heffner, Dan Cragin and others do by now as well.

    Re: Liquid Glass PTFE-6 Yep, got the order last week but haven't had a chance to try it yet. And John did call me and tell me about the price decrease and that they were going to credit me for the difference.

    Can you shim the throwout bearing? - new clutch issues

    $125 for resurfacing a flywheel? Is it aluminum? I had a local machine shop resurface my stocker when I put my new clutch in and they charged me $20. Works fine so far.

    Did you hear that some Vipers are shooting for 7 second 1/4 mile times?

    The dash of the yellow car is a prime example of taking a good idea too far and winding up worse off than when you started.

    AEM vs. VEC2 & BEST POWER ADDER FOR H/C CAR???

    1. If cost is not an issue this one is easy--AEM. The VEC2 is a good product but the AEM does everything it does plus a multitude of other things and I can't imagine anyone who wouldn't take it over the VEC2 if they were the same price. 2. IMO, it wouldn't make sense to add forced induction...

    Any good places to get a Viper serviced in middle TN?

    It's actually spelled Yelensky, and David can take care of whatever you need from maintenance to any kind of high performance stuff. His number is 931-637-0132. No need to go out of town if you're in the Nashville area.

    Best way to get Swirls out

    Re: swirl removal That's the correct full name for PTFE, but as I said, I'm fairly confident that not all PTFE is teflon. For example, take a look at this article on the leading recycler of PTFE, in which the company's CEO states that PTFE is a "close cousin" of teflon but "not the same at...

    Best way to get Swirls out

    Re: swirl removal What manufacturer of a product mentioned in this thread claims the product contains teflon? As best I can tell, plumcrazy threw the word out there in connection with the LG carbon/PTFE-6 stuff, but to my knowledge LG doesn't claim the product contains teflon. Teflon is a...

    Best way to get Swirls out

    Re: Liquid Glass PTFE-6 I ordered the carbon/PTFE-6 kit and after I give it a whirl I'll post some pics and let you guys know what I think about it. I've used Zaino for years and lately have put Menzerna on a couple of cars so I have a basis for comparison.

    How much was your Race Deck (flooring)?

    That's interesting because mine has been sitting on top of the floor perfectly fine for three years, just as the RaceDeck people told me it would. Hasn't moved an inch that I can tell.

    How much was your Race Deck (flooring)?

    Works great. You're not gonna hurt them with a lift (and if you somehow did it would be a simple matter to pop in a couple of new panels).

    What pistons comes in a Arrow rebuild?

    I think this is right, as I've heard of a couple of situations where engines that came with forged pistons were rebuilt with cast. Something to be aware of if you have an earlier car that winds up needing a rebuild.

    Heffner Twin Turbo..how much?

    Nice looking engine but who is that old fart in the driver's seat? :D

    Heffner Twin Turbo..how much?

    I don't know where you guys are coming up with your prices, but you can buy Heffner's regular system for a lot less than that. Now if you want an entire engine rebuild, a better tranny and driveline parts, safety equipment, etc., obviously it costs more. As far as cheaper yet effective...

    Heffner Twin Turbo..how much?

    Mentioning the term Viper tax in a thread about Jason Heffner displays a near complete lack of knowledge about what's been going on with respect to high-end Viper forced induction the last few years. Jason has an established track record of doing things just as well or better than the "big...

    Pinnacle kicks ass....

    Car looks great! :2tu: Another option some of you may want to try is a new German polymer product called Menzerna. I'm also a longtime Zaino user, and I have to say I think the Menzerna has it beat in all respects (except it probably doesn't smell as good, if you're into that), and the...

    Heffner Twin Turbo..how much?

    You'll save yourself some time and get more accurate info if you just call Jason and talk to him. There are several things to consider, such as whether you're talking about the upcoming DIY system or his existing system, as well as how much it's going to cost to change out your pistons and what...

    Re: [******] Has Customer Arrested Exactly the point. The guy I was responding to dug up and responded to a 2 1/2 year old post. Maybe I needed a sarcasm alert. :D

    Dyno Results!

    What he said. 12.0 is not rich on a blown motor. It's closer to the upper limit of safe, and you do not want it higher at WOT. And your numbers do seem very low to me. My '01 with headers, exhaust, rockers, and t/b's made 560 rwhp and 590 rwtq with the basic 5 lb pulley, and those numbers...
