    Anyone know about this Carbon Fiber Intake?

    Queue the moaning and groaning about bringing up the Vipair. It's not the Vipair, trust me.

    Anyone know about this Carbon Fiber Intake?

    Haha, no kidding... have you ever driven the car? Just driving it back from the dealer should show more wear than that. Wow.

    Corsa exhaust and GTS drone

    Corsa has been widely known to eliminate the drone. I've never heard this disputed.

    HELP...power upgrade questions...

    Yes, forgot to mention all my opinions are based on going the naturally aspirated route... I'm not the blower/tt type.

    What Are the Best Tires to Buy?

    Ditto, four new PS2's made a world of difference. Even perform well on the track and in the wet (when you can't avoid it). All four ran me about $1400 if I remember correct, 335 in the back, 295 in the front and happy with that combo. I have heard there's a special version of the PS2's that...

    HELP...power upgrade questions...

    Everyone has a different opinion on this topic and everyone does it differently. Here's my take and the path I went down. What year Viper? Non-ABS years may want to do a brake upgrade as soon as possible especially if you plan to do a lot of track time. New tires will give you the most bang for...

    NORCAL VIPER Sitings

    I've been seeing a red Gen 2 RT/10 (00-02 wheels) in the Clayton (mostly)/Concord area. Does anyone know who this is? I've seen him a quite a few times in the past month or two. Even saw the car coming out of the car wash down the street :omg: just about drove off the road when I saw that... I'd...

    Viper in 3rd Rock from the sun.

    Great clip. In the recommended videos list I saw one called "Dodge Viper RT/10 review" so I thought I'd see if it was gen 1 or 2. If any of you watch Top Gear, you'll know who Jeremy Clarkson is. Nice to see him with a pseudo afro back in the day heheh. YouTube - Dodge Viper RT/10 review

    NORCAL VIPER Sitings

    Mike, that sounds like a lot of fun... let me know when you are heading up. I'd like to see what everyone else drives around here.

    NORCAL VIPER Sitings

    That was probably me! Have trouble finding fun places to drive that I do a lot of errands in it. As far as I know I'm the only red/silver GTS around. What Viper do you drive? Looks like an SRT10 Coupe from the looks of your avatar... I've only seen a black one around Walnut Creek. Sorry for the...

    Tire Question

    Agreed, a new set of tires made the biggest difference out of all the mod I've made. Your ride comfort will be much better, less tire slip when you get on the accelerator, better grip when cornering. Miles mean nothing when you talk about older tires. If your tires are more than three years old...

    Spotted this diffuser/bumper, can it be bought?

    I love the idea of getting a rear diffuser, but that one is just way too big and out of place looking. Now what I would REALLY like is one similar to the 2008 C63 Benz. Now sure how it would really work on the Viper, but it's nice looking, not too outrageous. Are the Autoform diffusers the...

    96 Indy 500 edition B/W GTS for sale...

    Ah, OK... had me worried there, it doesn't look any worse than my car does on average between cleanings. Minus the seat rip of course... but man it does bug me how much getting in and out wears the seat especially the side part just above the waist.

    Spotted this diffuser/bumper, can it be bought?

    Not in the market for one, but I thought this one looked especially unique. Is anyone selling something like this?

    Adjusting Throttle Cable, Anyone Have Instructions?

    Yeah, if they are off any, it's only very little and I can't see how the air flow would be affected more than a tiny bit. I'll call it good. Hope the roads dry up by tonight for some test runs on the g-tech. Maybe embarrass a Vette or two heh, definitely not shortage of them around here.

    Oops, thought I found it, but I didn't... question still stands.

    Adjusting Throttle Cable, Anyone Have Instructions?

    Thanks for the info Dave, much appreciated. I just looked and with pedal depressed to the floor, the flaps in the throttle bodies look level. I do notice there is a small bit of play between where current full throttle is and the stopper on the axle/spring mechanism that doesn't allow it to turn...

    Adjusting Throttle Cable, Anyone Have Instructions?

    Searched around a bit, but didn't find a very good answer. The car is a 2002 ACR, naturally aspirated, and stock intake and throttle. I reset the PCM today including training the throttle sensor and honestly it felt like I unlocked 50 hp, the throttle is so much more responsive. Still need to do...

    Can anyone Identify this exhaust? Is it Corsa?

    Not sure if this applies to your system, but that two bolt connection looks like those on my belanger system (not saying yours is). When I did the install, they said to use high temp silicone gasket maker instead of a gasket. Said the surface is machined flat and doesn't require a typical...

    what are your winter projects?

    Three two word phases... track days, track days, and track days. Eventually I want to do headers and roller rockers, maybe I'll get bored enough to finally spend the cash this winter

    First Day at the Track, Impressions/Questions (long)

    I'll have to check out those other clubs. I'd like to take it easy the next couple times until I can work myself closer to full racing speed and work on my lines. The sessions at Thunder Hill are really laid back, easy to work on skills rather than worry about who's behind you. Best part about...

    First Day at the Track, Impressions/Questions (long)

    Spent a great day at Thunder Hill raceway Saturday, was my first time on a track with the Viper... actually first time ever. Posting some thoughts and questions for anyone who wants to chime in. Driving a mostly stock 2002 ACR with SSR lightweight wheels, Michelin PS2s, Belanger high flow cats...

    Installing Belanger System... Hi Flow Cats Or No?

    Can't really say about the headers (haven't had a chance to buy and install them) but I just put on the belanger cat back and high flow cats about a month ago. Jon B recommended that setup for best power gains over the other setups. I'd also recommend going with the full belanger system, install...

    So, thinking about taking the Viper across the pond...

    Yeah, some pretty good points. I wouldn't quite be in central london... it's real close to the london bridge. It has a parking space too, but wow, almost $8 a gallon is enough reason to leave it at home.
