Valaya installed Belanger headers, hi-flow cats and Borla Cat Back a couple weeks ago. Sounds good under throttle, nice deceleration rumble. Pretty mellow at idle. Volume is not excessive in the cabin.
John Archer installed the K&N cold air induction at Viper Days last week. Actually had the system installed Friday morning at the Brian Angen Memorial before I raced the 2005 Corvette during lunch. Bob Lutz sent it to Maurice for an opportunity to compare it to the Viper. No performance comparison, a stock 2003 Viper SRT totally destroyed the Vette. A 96RT gave it a good spanking, and my 2005 Ram SRT10 Quad Cab pulled a great hole shot but after about 400 feet the 5500 pounds and wind resistance took its tole and the Vette slowly pulled away. Spectators said I lost by a 1/4 sec. I keep the throttle to the floor to the start finish at Thunderhill. Many were concerned that the Ram would not be able to slow down for turn One. But the Ram has amazing brakes rated at 60-0 in 126 feet.
Having no experience racing the Ram I just put the tranny in the tow mode and let the computer shift.
On the street the RAM SRT will drive Corvette's nuts. Red light to Red light the RAM wins. Except for very long blocks.
