    Water/MethalNozzle location????

    One of the advatages of water/meth is cooling your air charge, so knowing that you need to give it as much time as you can to make that happen. It depends on your setup but ideal would be just post compressor, if you have an intercooler then just past that in the end tank.

    Anyone with Eibachs,18X11s on GTS?

    18x11's on front, gen 2 rt with eibach's same as gen 2 gts far as you are concerned. Your only issue on rubbing will be when you open the hood. Your hood will slightly touch the tire during opening and closing.

    DIY guy lookig for Paxton build advice

    Your fuel system will depend on the power you are planning on making. If you are trying to make more than 900rwhp then you will need to do some minor fuel system upgrades. However considering the fact that you have a stock bottom end I am betting your goal is not to set new records for power...

    DIY guy lookig for Paxton build advice

    Hopefully you will understand all this since you say you are all about DIY. 1) Get a paxton with brackets. Do not get their inter cooler or fuel system they are both crap and you will need to through them away after install. 2)AEM-Perfect Setup for batch fire to run #3. 3)AEM meth kit...

    Help me put my 2001 RT on a diet

    The spare on an RT is NOT part of the crash structure, it is just a spare. But the cars crash testing was done with the spare in, what does that mean? Who knows... Forgeline wheels VR1r's(not sure if they still make them) 11x18 front 13x18 rear, 17lb's front 19lb's rear just about the...

    OK my viper looks almost as bad as this..help!

    The first thing you need to do is stop causing the problem. Those scratches are there because of the rags/towels/etc you/carwash are using on your paint. When you figure out what the problem is then you can try to remove the swirls, it may or may not work depending on how deep they are. But...

    Information to keep regarding 43mm ABS rear calipers for 2001-02 Vipers

    Does this mean we can soon have 43mm rear upgrade for gen 2 non abs cars? Or would that be too much brake force when compared to the front.

    Rims back from Cal Chrome

    Get a more accurate scale, I would be shocked if you found someone who could chrome a wheel and add less than 1/2 a pound of weight to it in the process. Far as strength goes I guess you know better than Porsche or the German TUV, who does NOT allow aluminum chromed wheels on any road driven...

    Rims back from Cal Chrome

    Chroming affects wheel weight considerably, and makes the wheel weaker.

    The Build has Finally started.....Pics...

    Baz, Although the base map in the AEM is a good start, it is far from perfect. You need to tune your car, it will be worth a good bit of power. The map was made on a stock 1997 car which only made 422rwhp after tune. On my car tune over the base map was worth 15rwhp and even more torque...

    car running TERRIBLE..no power..gas smell on start-up

    The question you gotta ask yourself is why were those 2 plugs wet? Any obvious damage to wires or plugs on those 2 cylinders?

    car running TERRIBLE..no power..gas smell on start-up

    Check the wires, make sure they are all connected and solid. Far as the plugs go, unless you tell me that the car is heavily modded or uses nitrous I don't see how you could have damaged the plugs with only 6k miles on the car. Did you remove the wires recently? Possibly plugged them back on...

    Cat Removal

    Frank, On a car like yours you can't just remove cats without tuning. You have lots of mods and power output much higher than factory. While on a stock car cats will only affect hp just slightly, on your car the difference can be big. Your cat's were most likely a huge restriction and now...

    Cat Removal

    Any modifications to the car besides the cats? Did you reset the ECU? How many miles on your o2 sensors? Year car? o2 sims? I have never seen a car loose anything when it came to hp when cats were removed.

    car running TERRIBLE..no power..gas smell on start-up

    No way is it plugs or wires. Were you washing the car before this happened? Specifically under the hood? Maybe coils? Maybe some sort of sensor? Fuel pump, but doubtful I would bet my money on a sensor that went bad or got damaged.

    HP Gain From Just Adding High Flow Cats?

    The reason to delete cats is not a power boost, but rather a fix for something that ruins enjoyment of the car. When you remove the cats, side sills become normal temps, foot wells become normal temps, and your paint no longer changes color on your side sills.

    692.25 RWHP... What simple mods next to break 700?

    MikeR, I am assuming he is talking about a gen 2 because of his avatar, if not then changing the rocker arms will most likely do nothing cause the SRT ones are already 1.7 ratio.

    692.25 RWHP... What simple mods next to break 700?

    Roller rockers should easily bump you over 700rwhp, some people have seen 25rwhp gains on lightly modified cars in your case it may be a lot more. Out of curiosity how much boost are you running? A buddy of mine has a stock paxton setup and his car only makes 540rwhp on Dan's dyno with stock...
