    Differences between 03 to 06 SRT10 convertibles?

    Id go with a 05 and up. 2003's had alot of recalls and most didnt have the red calipers, which I like. It seems 2004's had more tranny issues. Supposedly 05 and up has hardened parts. Anyways, with values so low, Id get the newest model year possible. Unless theres a special color which was only...

    Paxton Supercharger Costs Question

    Is your kit polished? Just curious, since your basing it against a polished Paxton. Because the silver finish, which many have is about $1k cheaper and looks more factory in my opinion. Anyways, It seems in my area, from a few I talked to that went to a shop, labor was around 3k to install.

    OK - Dyno Experts .... 448.2 hp, 442.42 Torque. Thoughts?

    Alot of times the guys will get it into 2nd gear and then just shift to 4th. I dont know what affect it would have, but dyno runs are typically done in 4th gear.

    Supercharged 08 Viper

    Doubtful. There is more warranty work involved if they supercharged it and have problems. Most manufacturers like to stay N/A. And as far as durability, there are many Paxton cars with 20k + miles and running strong. Mine has about 7k miles since S/C and it lives at redline. And as far as...

    Loud noise from the Thermostat houseing??

    I may have to try this also. I have been battling this similar noise. I replaced my P/S pump, it was getting real noisy. But I still have a simialr noise to when pump was acting up. Its a loud whine after car gets over 180 degrees. As car cools a bit noise comes and goes. I can hear it over...

    OK - Dyno Experts .... 448.2 hp, 442.42 Torque. Thoughts?

    With similar mods, I was upwards of 480 rwhp and 520 rwtq. Your hp seems low and your torque real low. Could be the dyno or operator. But your putting down close to stock Viper hp.

    06 Coupe - Before & After

    You can also install a Corsa exhaust ($1300) plus shipping and get the same hp gains, about 15 rwhp. After that things start getting expenive, headers net about 15-20 rwhp but are anywhere from 2k-3k plus install and then tHings like heads and cam or supercharger run you upwards of $ 10k for...

    I picked up about 15 rwhp and 40 rwtq just from the computer tune. tune $600 shipping computer back and forth overnight UPS $ 80 total spent $680. The K&N is a waste in my opinion.

    Chip-tuning

    Just talk with one of the tuners. DC Performance is good. You will feel a difference, even on a stock car. Search for Dc tune or tune and you will find lots of postings with results.

    Which heat exchanger??

    I went with the DLM cooler, also got the belt tensioner as well. Works great. I only have experience with the DLM cooler. Its bigger and alot lighter then stock Paxton cooler. Thats all the info I needed to make the decision. All my friends run the DLM as well. I knew the DLM name and everyone...

    Question for the paxton guys out there..

    Another thing to consider is belt slip. If your only getting 5 lbs, belt might be slipping. This happened to ILLSMOQ. DC performance was able to catch it once they started montioring boost. It would be at 4, then 6 then 3, then 5lbs etc. He had alot of belt slip. Installled a DLM tensioner and...

    06 Coupe - Before & After

    Mine N/A ran at about 12.8-13.0 all the way across the board after the DC tune. Your a/f looks like it moves around a bit and gets a bit rich at the end. Id assume it could be leaned out a bit still and net a bit more power.

    09 Viper or Modify Existing One???

    I agree with Ted. I used to have a new car every 6 months to a year, Id just trade them in and get a new on. I would lightly mod them. Now lately, the market is changing and cars are taking a huge plunge in value. Since you already lost probably $20k+ on your 05, if you selll, buy a 08 or...

    Actually thats just what he told you. He isnt going anywhere. Just needs a vacation from you calling everyday. Rather then trick you, he just needs to get Caller ID.

    I own Both: StopTech vs EuroTech.. my Vote..

    Stock SRT rotors.... You save about 30lbs for the whole set of 4 aftermarket rotors( Stoptechs or Eurotechs), compared to a stock set on a Gen 3. Its a nice weight savings of rotational mass. I personally went with the Stoptechs for their history and name. Some say rotors are rotors. Like...
