My '94 Viper has the TSB screws to lock down the ratcheting buttons on the throttle cables. I thought that this would mean I don't need to do the throttle sync. However, after reading through the throttle sync instructions in the "How to: Illustrated Upgrades" I realized that my car was exhibiting all the symptoms: drive line clunk, idle undershoot and surging. Honestly I thought this was just the way the Viper drives, since this is my first.

After talking to everyones favorite Viper tech (you know who), I was convinced I needed to do it...Hot D@mn it drives like a new car. It runs like a brand new car, I cannot believe the difference...Even my wife commented on how much better it ran.

I got the screw kit for my '94 but never installed them.
With my Gen1 I had to sync the cables every now and again. It makes a difference alright.

I'm happy with the Viper that way it is. I won't be monkeying with it while everything is running well.

besides, I want to get another sportbike, I'm starting to miss having them around...
