Can you start with what the car has done to it?
My first guess would be that you are missing boost, but I am not sure if your car even has boost in any way.
Do you have an AEM unit? They come with the dual wide band built in.
If not you need the dual, no point in not knowing what the other side of your engine is doing.
Put the AEM unit on your car right now, you dont need to do anything else.
You will pick up power, at certain RPM close to 50rwhp and even more torque. I have seen it first hand on several vipers, including mine which went from ~430-450+rwhp, and went from 480rwtq to 510rwtq.
Not to mention...

Its your car and you can do what you like, just trying to warn you on whats going to happen sooner or later.
A/F ratio's in the tail pipe are very unreliable from my experience, and considering you are running stock fuel system...

No
Even though geographicaly it is more south than LA area, most dont refer to San Diego as So Cal.
Re: Before and After JM\'s Striker Heads - Not so creamy anymore!
As I said before you are playing with fire, and missing a bunch of power while your at it.
It is NOT uncomon to pickup 20hp and 50lb's torque on a stock viper with a good tune. Now you have done all this work but still have no...
Dodge does not test at the ring, the numbers listed for the Viper are independently tested. If someone bothered to test and prep a car like Chevy does with the Vet they will find the times to be much more competative.
Same goes for Ferrari, and many of the other cars that seem to be slower...
Re: OMG! Viper running terrible!! Hard to describe symptoms but I\'ll try
Sounds like you are experiencinng some sort of sensor failure or fuel pump failure.
Are you getting a check engine light? This might be stored as an error code in the computer, if you check logs.
My personal take on them is that they improve looks, thats about it.
Cornering ability is similar if not worse than factory, and ride quality is the same. There has been no bottoming out for me, or the need of a kidney belt, I find them very soft, to soft actualy.
Sounds like your friend is full of it.
While it is not uncomon to put a few cars on a turbo car because of the turbo lag, it is comon to see that same car blow past you in a few seconds if it makes much more power than you.
Your cars are similar in weight, so there is no reason why his supra...
Its probably an IAC motor(Idle Air Control).
The throttle body service can be beneficial if your intake is filled with residue, the price is a bit high but its the dealer.
The fuel induction service usualy involves running a bunch of chemicals through your manifold/T bodies.
The injectors you have now are good for 950-1000rwhp @100% so you are either.
A) Running out of fuel pump
B) Not tuning the vec 2 properly
C) Making more horsepower than that.
C) is not likely with a paxton
Viper hoods have very minimal adjustments.
Unfortunatly for as most used viper owners find out when your hood has big gaps or is sitting weird its because of collision that were never fixed properly.
There really is only one Guy I would take my viper to in LA or anywhere else for that matter...
Doubt it.
The reason they are available in the sizes they are is because of them being used in special race series. No race cars in the near future will be using 19inch wheels, even 18 inch is pushing it.
Cant emphasize this enough,
NEVER EVER let anyone drive cars like this, no valet, no mechanic, etc, etc...
Sorry to hear about your car, you need to get a hold of some legal advice right away. The car wash will want YOUR insurance to pay for the car, and their insurance to cover what yours...
ASKYOURWIFE,
The ROE sims should work just fine, but you should really consider having the computer tuned so you pick up even more power for the $500.00 that DC charges. Even if you gain only another 5 rwhp(and you will gain more) the power curve will be much stronger after the tune, and you...
Why on earth would ANYONE buy a Zo6 when you can buy such a car for 76k, which is cheaper or just as much as z new Zo6?
What the hell is wrong with people.
