    What is a good quality HID kit to purchase?

    I bought the Philip's kit from Roe Racing back when Sean was selling them. Both the ballast and bulbs were made in Germany. I've been running them for about 8 years now (granted they're not on that much) and they still work great. Great improvement over the 60 watt oem bulbs. They're aimed to...

    Sixth gear started jerking today. Help?

    Seriously, your first step should be to call Chuck Tator. He's forgotten more about Vipers then some of us will ever know. True, he can't diagnose a car over the phone but he can suggest places to start looking. Like some have suggested earlier, fouled/bad plug, bad spark plug wire, vacuum...

    Sixth gear started jerking today. Help?

    David, Careful with guys that answer CL adds. There are some red flags with his response that would cause me concern. 1. 4.10's or 4.56's in a Viper? That seems awful low. The 3.73's are plenty low for you. 2. Double platinum plugs proven? In what way? IMO they would be a waste of money...

    Gas Pedal Kits?

    I agree about the feel of the gas pedal being too light. Maybe I've been driving a Crown Vic way too long too. Anyways, not really addressing the issue of the pedal feedback but here's a post that I made several years back regarding adjusting the pedal position relative to each other. I had to...

    So I pulled the cats and my car now sounds like crap, what should I do

    I second this route. It's exactly what my vipertech did and it sounds great. If you still have your stock cats it won't cost you anything except labor. Sounds great, much better then with stock cats, no drone and passes the strict CA smog sniffer test. I have headers and Corsa catback.

    Need Engine Bay Pictures

    The pic angles don't show it but the hose doesn't touch the airbox, only the cross member. I think the difference between your set up and mine is the the hose fitting on my radiator is lower then stock since i have the oil cooler on top. That would be the reason for the top radiator hose sitting...

    Need Engine Bay Pictures

    I didn't have any problems with the airbox fitting at all. There's about 4mm between the box and the radiator hose. The hose does touch the aluminum cross member so I wrapped that area of the hose with some silicone fusion tape (you can see it in the pics).

    Header Trauma

    Al, did you see the post by ILLSMOQ on Kooks headers for his Gen 3? Don't know if they make a Gen 2 header but it's certainly worth looking into.
