    Viper Dyno Results

    Hello All, As I just picked up my GenV today and have not had a chance to do anything with the car yet....I can only speak from past experiences with Gen 2 and 3 Vipers. One thing I remember vividly about the PCM is that it is a "learning computer". You need to unlearn it when you arrive at...

    I'm Back!

    Been away a while on other ventures and playing with different toys but recently bought a SRT8 Jeep Cherokee and just yesterday bought a 2013 Viper GTS. Since it's raining and raining and raining her in Georgia the last several days, we didn't drive it home and will pick it up sometime this...

    Belanger problems again

    Patrick, You spoke an untruth here....as you contacted me by phone, sent me your pictures, then I gave you a solution to try. Never since then have you attempted to contact me with your findings. As for Lou, he is kind of like me, in that while we appreciate customers, they are NOT always...

    1997 Red GTS with yellow and gold wheels

    Sure will, if you want to PM me your address, I can send you a DVD with lots of footage of the car at the track on stock wheels and CCW Wheels. You may also be able to dig up a DVD created from a race in Bowling Green Ky. 3-4 years ago. I won the street tire shootout there and a modified Viper...

    1997 Red GTS with yellow and gold wheels

    Hello, Yes, mine is one of the 14 that were made, and that night time track picture was at a streettire shootout 4 years ago in Texas....as can be evidenced by the brake dust all over the wheels. When I first bought mine, I thought it looked hideous compared to my brothers blue/white 1996...

    OK NOS experts-installing a NX on my Viper - I need to know

    NGK FR5-1 Be careful not to lean out using the stock fuel system. Keep in mind that the dyno with a fan in front of the naca duct does not immulate the pressure generated by airflow at 130++ MPH. This will lean your mixture. Adjust jetting for maximum power at 10.5 A/F. If the power...

    Barrett-Jackson observations

    50k My thoughts......... Other than the charity cars, I think that the bidders were given a code like x4 or x2 meaning that what they bid was 4 times the amount that they had to pay. Lots of the same bidders as last year. Where are these guys throughout the year, there are lots of cars for...

    AH Hell....Its Christmas time...... Try the following..... Your jetting is good. 1. Warm the propane bottle to maintain 160 psi. 2. Check the propane solenoid filter to insure that it is not clogged. (propane can be "dirty") 3. Warm the nitrous bottle to maintain 1050 psi 4. Insure...

    He's right on both counts.........but your torque is about 170-200Ft/Lbs too low for the HP Tom

    NOS or Roe, Paxton?

    Juice Mike, Juice! No fancy timing and fuel computers, no extra pulleys, belts, high engine temps, crowded engine compartments, deck of special cards, and high octane fuel required to turn up the boost. A 15lb nos bottle will last quite a few weekends at the Gandy, and you will have a...

    Nitrous + Champion plugs = disaster

    A stock pump cannot keep up with more than about 580 total hp. Keep in mind that fuel starvation has always been the silent killer of any nitrous or forced air engine. Most fuel pumps are mounted in the rear of the car and the fuel must travel forward against the G forces caused by...

    Nitrous + Champion plugs = disaster

    First of all, your fuel system cannot support 300 hp worth of nitrous injection! To make matters worse, you have larger throttle bodies which add even more air to an already lean condition. It's stuff like this that give nitrous a bad name. Guys like v10speedster will always be ignorant and...

    You Winers!

    Re: You Whiners! Chris, They'll eat their young on these forums! I too just bought a 06 coupe (black/silver) and while it is not perfect, it still has the "gawk" factor that is expected from the Viper brand. When I get finished with its upgrades, it will be a force to be reckoned with by...

    Exhaust choices narrowed to 2

    You should look at Belangers before you pull the trigger. Check out my website for details. On a sidenote, you rarely see folks selling used Belanger exhaust.....the other stuff is all over the Internet. Best of luck, Tom

    1/4 or 1/8 mile times with 150 shot?

    I have ran 10.80's on stock tires with 160RWHP of spray on a Viper with only an exhaust system. I believe that there is a video of it on my website. This was several years ago. You should be able to go low-mid 11's on any track. Best of luck. Tom

    Loud thump coming from the rearend?

    Your halfshaft is bent and not sliding properly. Upon acceleration it "pops" as it has to slide along the spline that connects the two parts of the halfshaft together. You may be lucky enough to grease them....but its probably too late or bent or twisted along the spline. Order a pair of my...
