BELANGER headers are the only thing out there right now that are proven to make power and not throw check engine lights. There are also suspension mods etc... available.

Just call and I can help you.

No PCM monkeying on 08s. Too trigger happy.

Complete Belanger Exhaust systems IN STOCK, proving +50HP.

Rear gear swaps IN STOCK (great mod-really! Feels like 80HP !!!!)

HiFlow air filters/intake hoses, no "box" yet.

KW or Moton adjustable suspensions from under $3000, or just lowering kits from $179....

We have some **** floor mats that look like +20HP ! (1 seller probably claims it!)

Welcome to our wacky world......

Once you get your 2008 Viper...be sure to upgrade to Viper Owner by letting the mods know: kcobean/citysnake/lee00blacksilver...you'll have to already have the car and the VIN#. GOOD LUCK to ya~~~~and welcome to VIPER FEVER....there IS NO C-U-R-E~~~!!! ~juli

Dear Doc,

You've got some great friends of the Viper community responding here and I know you'll be blown away with an '08!! I know the Viper show car previewing the '08 talked about an intake option when I talked with Dodge reps at the New York Auto show, but I haven't heard about this more yet.....anyone have details on that?

Regards,
Aaron

I think Ive done most of the basic mods out for the 08. Belanger headers/exhaust and a K&N air filter. I dyno'd mine at 568 to the rear wheels while two other stocks dyno'd at 507 and 521hp..you can also give the car speed by lightening it up. Take off the heavy rotors and put on some stop tech aluminum slotted or drilled rotors. Jon B will sell you a set of the light weight SSR 18" wheels which shave off more weight. Along with some Kumho Ecstas for extra stick. Motons and Eibachs, a wing, splitter, and canards give it that sleek look and make it stick on the track corners. Then theres always the little stuff: short throw shifter, carbon fiber console, 6 point harnesses, seat lowering kit, clear bra, e-brake relocation kit, stainless steel brake lines and a roll bar if its a convertible... anyways ..thats what I've done so far.

Which K&N filter did you get? I looked at their website and they did not have a filter listed for an 08.
Thanks
