    What are a good set of 10 spoke wheels worth?

    Well depends on which wheels you have. The wheels that were reffered to as 10 spokes were on the 03-05 but I dont think on the 06's. If you have the old style 10 spoke, they are heavy and not worth much. You would be lucky to get $1k for them , maybe $2k with good tires. But buyers are rare for...

    Tires (what size to go with...)

    Thanks man!!!! But take any Viper, throw wheels on it and lower it and its a whole new car. Yours would look so mean with 19/20" wheels, black centers and lowered. I almost bought a black Viper just for that mean ,intimidating look.

    Tires (what size to go with...)

    When I ordered from Iforge I told them Id probably run the Nitto's. The front only comes 285, so they told me to go 10.5" I ended up hearing so-so reviews on Nitto, so I didnt end up running that tire. They said they mostly do 10.5" and the wider the rim, better handling for road course,hills...

    Aftermarket Tune ?

    DC Perfomance did mine when stock with just exhaust. Got alot more midrange power and some peak too. If you search in SRT section for tune, DC Perfomance, etc, you should find lots of info and dyno sheets. Id go with DC

    Who makes the best SRT hardtop?

    I agree. There are a few hardtop makers out there. I havent seen any in person,but from the pics and reputation, Id go with Lemkes top. As soon as I get thru my wedding and get a few things paid off, I'll be ordeing a Lemke top.

    Tires (what size to go with...)

    Im on a 20x13 rear. Funny thing is, the PS2 335 is as wide as Pirelli 345. It actually fits the rim better then the Nitto 345 also. Only thing about PS2 is its 3/4" taller. But its stickier and the taller profile helps traction too. Heres a few pics.. ILLSMOQ's car when he had PS2 in...

    Tires (what size to go with...)

    275/30/19 I have a 19X10.5 and the Pirelli 275 looked good on it as well. The way the rim protector is, it allows it to come out to rim edge and looks better then the other tires.

    Tires (what size to go with...)

    The Pirelli does look better then the Nitto. It is almost a perfect match front to rear. The Nitto front sidewall looks a little taller then the rear. The Nitto rear looks stretched on a 13" rear in my opinion. ILLSMOQ runs the Pirelli's in 19/20. Looks great. Ive seen both tires in 19/20 and...

    Did you regret putting a Paxton on your SRT? Help!

    Be sure to get and post vids. I remember the last Vid of those Murci's and one of them walked a Paxton Viper. But it didnt have the power you have. The hope the outcome is different this time and we see the Viper waving goodbye. :2tu:

    Did you regret putting a Paxton on your SRT? Help!

    You dont have any supercharger options right now for a 08. The kit made for the 03-06 SRT was not CARB approved or smog legal in California.

    Got a 09 Treat/Surprise

    That sounds about right. There are probably close to 100 Norcal Viper members and maybe 10 of us post on or read this site. There are still many Ive talked to at our Monthly meetings that had no idea about this site. I also ran into a couple guys at the track once. They both had just bought...

    Help!!!! I cant keep my polished lips clean.

    I use my air compressor, I blow out the water from the holes and inner barrel. I also usely wash the night before Im going on a drive, so any excess moisture in vbarrel dries up and doesnt fling out next day Im driving. But I only wash my car/rims 10% of the time. The other 90%, I do as others...

    Groaning, moaning noise at idle, any ideas??

    Does the pulley come off easily, or do you need a puller. Is it just held on by a bolt? And was it hard to bleed the system?

    Did you regret putting a Paxton on your SRT? Help!

    Yes, I admit, I regret it..... I regret not doing it when I first bought my car. Its a blast to drive with the Paxton. Yet you can also cruise , drive normal and you almost wouldnt even know its there. But like others said, with any mod, you can have problems. Also, its a little more difficult...

    Groaning, moaning noise at idle, any ideas??

    Yes, well technically, if in me, you mean ILLSMOQ. :rolaugh: Its sitting in his garage. Im going to call dealer Monday, Im hoping its a common pump used on other vehicles. That way they will hopefully have one in stock. I will get the hose too and some new fluid. Thanks for your help.

    Groaning, moaning noise at idle, any ideas??

    Well, you were right. I had been driving all day ,been on a cruise and was finishing up the day. I was on way home, got on freeway and as I came up on 3k rpms, I got a ear peircing noise. I was on the phone with ILLSMOQ and he said, "What was that noise" As long as I kept it under 3k rpms, it...

    Groaning, moaning noise at idle, any ideas??

    Not sure, I mentioned in my thread, either fan or Pump. Ive read threads of both becoming very noisy. I guess wondering which is more common. All I know is it bugs me and Im afraid to have dealer touch car.

    Groaning, moaning noise at idle, any ideas??

    So lately I started hearing a groaningor whining noise. I seemed to notice it more when hot out and A/C was on. It would go away as A/c was off for awhile and engine temps dropped. You really dont hear noise outside car,especially with my exhaust and paxton whistling. Anyways, it sounds alot...

    I hate my PS2's need help ?

    I love the PS2's They stick good and are very predictable if they do slide. As others said, Id check your alignment and a few other things. Also, evryones opinions and feedback vary, but what Ive seen, the PS2 is better then the Pzero. My Buddy, ILLSMOQ went from his 19/20 Ps2's to the 19/20...

    Update on my Decel Pop, Its gone!!!! Thanks DC Performance

    Yea, thanks. I know of those, but would custom build my own setup. The Roe set up will not work on a car with headers. Mine has a 3 bolt flange, the setup Roe uses is to mate up to stock manifold. Anyways, a little pop is fine, mine was ridiculous. It wasnt this bad stock, after I removed...
