    I really needed new mounts here are some pics.

    My car with very minor mods ~450rwhp had torn both mounts by the time there was 14k on odometer.

    Do i need to let me car viper warm up before driving it?

    Like Jon B says "the year matters" On 99 and older cars or cars that have after market forged pistons it is a good idea to let the motor warm up to nearly operating temperature before driving. The reason being is that they need to expand and heat is what causes them to do so. That however...

    Question for turbo or supercharger guys...

    Andy, Sorry I should have been more clear, these cars have reworked fuel systems with returns. You can get away with a fuel system like the paxton kit uses up to a point, but if you saw just how small the factory feed line is (roughly -4) in certain choke points you will understand why I...

    Question for turbo or supercharger guys...

    Andy, Just did 2 so here are my .02cents worth of advice. 1) You should be getting an AEM with dual wide band sensors, unless you like replacing expensive motors. a) EGT gauges are worthless(this is free advice from years and years or racing), you set your tune and be happy with it an EGT...

    Stock looking but modded ends....

    I dont do pics not trying to convince anyone to buy anything, especially this front end. Just pointing out the fact that his choice is the best you can get. Oh and the autoform front end is a copy of the Oreca front end.

    Stock looking but modded ends....

    The Autoform fascia is by far the best looking mod for any gen 2 viper, the problem is the price. The parts alone are around 5k, and installation when done right can be just as much if not more.

    Paxton with nitrous ?

    The solinoids you can mount on the bottom of the factory cross memeber, they wont be very noticeable. If you want to hide the nitrous setup completly you can put everything into the heat exchanger.

    Paxton with nitrous ?

    Didnt someone make a throttle body plate for vipers at some point? That would be the best place to put the nozzles. Best hidden location would be to do individuals underneath the intake manifold, and you wont be able to see it either. The only problem will be that the min hp shot will be...

    Enclosed Trailer Opinions

    Depends on what you are buying a trailer for. If you just plan on using it for short hauls several times a year then it makes no difference what you get long as your car fits in it as you want and your tow vehicle can do the job. So in this situation the Haulmark is just fine, but a bit over...

    ACR PURCHASE

    With that many miles I would say 50k. Even for a viper that is very very low miles, you are basically buying a new car.

    Viper Driver Dies - Driver's Fault

    If he really was drinking and was in fact drunk enough to be really drunk not just a few beers then its a good thing he died and didn't take anyone else with him. There is no excuse for driving in this condition, zero. And if his friend that survived knew he was drunk he should be prosecuted...

    Looking for Opinions on an F1 Racing DF Clutch Kit??

    Unless your car is making 800rwhp or more there is no reason to switch from stock clutch.

    09 ACR vs 09 ZR1, Forum Wars on Speed Channel

    If the rules allowed for those swaps then why not? He didnt write that this was supposed to be a stock vs stock comparison for motor trend, did he?

    what will it run?

    If you are semi compitent on the track I would say 10.50's @ 140 or so.

    Rear window in RT/10 shattered!!!!

    Could be wrong here, but I am fairly certain that leaving the rear window out is actualy causing more resistance when driving down the road than less. Leaving it out just beats the crap out of the back of your head and body, and it gets much worse the faster you go. Have had the car to about...

    Headers on Creampuff

    The problem with mild mods on any viper is the lack to tuning available in the past. Now with SCT tunes, Vec, AEM, etc, you should be able to pick up considerable power with headers and a tune. Remember peak hp isnt where the real gains are its the rest of the power band that you need to be...

    Went to the track Saturday.....

    Never mind just realized this was with the glide. Who made the torque converter? On a glide there is nothing more important than the right converter.

    2000 GTS Dyno Sheet

    What Camfab said, absolutely no need to do anything to the bottom end if your doing just heads/cam. All you will accomplish is to spend lots of your hard earned money.

    Rebuild?..again?..help!!!

    Treesnake, Plum is correct I was referring to your engine build being so over the top, for a blower that is capable of producing 700hp huffing and puffing as hard as it can. So have you asked Arrow how they managed to run the motor on their dyno without it being tuned? Its very easy to hurt...

    Rebuild?..again?..help!!!

    I am having a problem with the break in that you did at Arrow. How did they break it in when the electronics were NOT tuned? Puke cans over filling are a crankcase pressure problem, which is most likely caused by poor ring size choice and/or piston size choice, and last but not least damage...

    UK TT GTS for sale

    Simple answer is they dont know how good they have it until its gone. I know of a few guys that sold their TT vipers and are now regretting it.

    Dyno'd My Roe Setup today. Man do I have questions.

    :rolaugh: Gonna have to make a new category for you, not sure what to name it yet though. Something that brings across the message that says I dont need boost to make 545rwhp on my roe, your all doing it wrong. I dont know why all those people are bothering buying Stryker heads all they need...

    Dyno'd My Roe Setup today. Man do I have questions.

    The more restriction you have on your motor the more the boost is going to creep. If you do some searching on this forum and the alley you will find that boost creep is very common on roe units. If you got some headers, roller rockers, a free flowing exhaust(corsa is not it), some head...
