    Can you believe this BS?

    Big-n, it looked like you got sniped there at the end. Buyer got a heck of a deal, IMO. I actually did exchange some e-mail with one of the idiots that sent out the same scam the first time it was listed. Asked her some interesting questions like whether the system would work on a '99 Viper...

    forged pistons/rods on 2002

    Re: forged pistons/rods on 2002 Dearest Jon, I'm quite content to leave the record as it is, as I am confident the literate among us can make up their own mind as to who is doing the squirming here (claiming that increases in boost are not "associated" with detonation because the two...

    raced my Viper VS my bike (R1)

    You mean we can do that? Just post any old BS that went on and someone might read it? Well, um, I got up around 8:30 and had some cereal, and then I sat down and read the paper. Hold on a minute; this is gonna take a while. I'm gonna go get some food and I'll be right back.

    forged pistons/rods on 2002

    Re: forged pistons/rods on 2002 Jon, you can't possibly be dumb enough not to understand what I've been saying, but just in case. . . . Of course you don't have to have detonation to have boost, nor do you have to have FI to have detonation. I didn't say detonation was always present with...

    forged pistons/rods on 2002

    Re: forged pistons/rods on 2002 Neither statement is mine so I don't really care one way or the other, but how so? The first statement doesn't say eutectic is as strong as hyper, it just says the copper alloys offer "most of the advantages" of hyper. Admittedly overall "strength" is somewhat...

    forged pistons/rods on 2002

    Re: forged pistons/rods on 2002 BC, I could have used you last year. :) Ulysses, I don't know what the current split is between eutectic and hypereutectic, but unless the factory's specs are wrong several new engines use eutectic rather than hyper, including the 5.7L Hemi and the LS7 in...

    Found the post with Sean's comment in it: http://vca2.viperclub.org/forums/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=UBB14&Number=284316&Forum=UBB14&Words=eutectic&Match=Entire%20Phrase&Searchpage=0&Limit=25&Old=allposts&Main=283972&Search=true#Post284316 And I'm willing...

    forged pistons/rods on 2002

    Don't know what's in the Mopar catalogue but when Sean Roe was developing his supercharger system he consulted with an engineer at Mahle, which manufactures the pistons in question, and the guy told Sean the pistons are in fact eutectic, not the stronger hypereutectic.

    forged pistons/rods on 2002

    Dear school ma'rm: Anyone but a girl would know that Viper cast pistons are eutectic, not hypereutectic. For that matter anyone but a girl probably could spell hypereutectic. :) :) P.S. While your statement about boost and cast pistons might have some truth in theory, in practice it is...

    I guess, but I was going about 80 mph when it happened. :eek:

    Tranny pics

    Finally found out what 1,100+ foot lbs did to my tranny: most of the teeth on the two gears where the input shaft meshes with the countershaft were reduced to small shards in the bottom of the tranny housing. :( Input shaft: Countershaft:

    Need a gen 2 pcm!!!

    I have a 2001 PCM that was programmed by West Coast Viper. They didn't change the tuning maps because I originally planned to use it with a VEC2, but did kill some of the unwanted stuff like the skip-shift, O2 heatup and downstream 02 codes (so headers or no cats doesn't throw a code), and a...

    Any Viper cornholers around?

    I don't know what goes on in other parts of the country, but down here in the South a cornholer would be likely to get shot way before he could even get near the hole.

    Torque 1, Tranny 0

    Re: My tranny is working again .... Schulmann, thanks for the update and I'm glad you're back on the road. I hope to join you soon! FlyBry, I wonder if that fluid would be good for those of us who don't road race but are pushing 2-3x the stock torque through our tranny?

    Tire dressing that won't sling off all over the side of your car

    Re: Tire dressing that won\'t sling off all over the side of your car Haven't tried the Zaino tire dressing, although I've used the other Zaino stuff for years. Thanks for all the suggestions.

    Tire dressing that won't sling off all over the side of your car

    Re: Tire dressing that won\'t sling off all over the side of your car Yeah I am, but I heard 29 cents worth of tire dressing would add 30 rwhp if you put it in your nitrous/meth/water/secret sauce tank. :D Oh and if you had noticed I said it was hard to get off a BLACK car, and I don't own...

    Tire dressing that won't sling off all over the side of your car

    Tire dressing that won\'t sling off all over the side of your car Is there such a thing? If so, I haven't found it. Many of them claim they don't do it, but they do. Latest candidate to fail is Meguiar's purple looking tire gel. Let the crap sit overnight even so the tire could absorb it...

    Belanger Or B&B headers with Roe Supercharger

    There have been a couple of dyno documented cases discussed on the other board where B&B's were worth 40 or more rwhp/tq on Roe cars, but both cars had significant other mods in addition to the s/c. One was a stroker, 522 ci I think, and the other was an all-out all motor car that made...

    Gee, thanks. :( Hey, I wouldn't get the $2,999 anyway--some crook would and the poor "buyer" wouldn't get anything.

    Yes, hopefully people are smart enough to think that sounds fishy as hell, but you never know. Thanks for posting that just in case.

    Heffner Supercharger System back on Ebay

    No, I don't. I seem to recall that the alternator is in a different place on the Gen. 1, which probably would mean the brackets, idler, etc. wouldn't fit.

    Heffner Supercharger System back on Ebay

    Yes and no. They refund part of the fees if a relisted item sells the second time around.
