I haven't done a darn thing to it so far! I sorta drained the checking account for a while when I bought it. It already has tubes and filters, so that's out of the way. I plan to do the exhaust in the next couple of weeks, and a Roe charger in a month or two.

 

[Craig 201 MPH]

big wing and 50 TypeR stickers. That's where the real power is

 

[Snake Bitten]

For a Blue/White?

1. Tubes/Filters
2. EBC Green brake pads
3. Exhaust (Headers, no cats, catback)
4. Chrome your 17's (California Chrome)
5. Eibach springs (and adjust your Koni's while they are off)

 

[garolittle]

1. Smooth Tubes
2. K&N Filters
3. Delete Cats

[SUN RA KAT]

Belanger Headers

Random Tech Ultra High Flow Cats

Corsa 3" Cat Back

Lightweight Flywheel

MGW Gripper Shift Knob

Woodhouse Modified Shifter

Roe Clutch Adjust

Roe Supercharger System with VEC2 and 70 mm Throttle Bodies & 70 mm etc.

Abacus so I can count to only 5

 

[NCVCA]

Don't do headers if you want to race scca. Wheels are the biggest bang for the buck (imo). Unsrung weight reduction is king!

 

[jimandela]

Roe filters
chrome smooth tubes
Roe clutch link
Randomtech cats,B&B catback
EBC greens

 

[MichaelP]

filters
tubes
EBC greens
Shorter shifter
Zaino

Not neccessarily in that order.

 

[Viperzilla]

I like what you put, Craig

If I had a Viper (still dreaming):
1. Smooth tubes/ K&N filters
2. Snake-Oyl or Corsa cat-back exhaust
3. MGW shift knob with short shift kit
4. either "Porsche for breakfast, Ferraris for lunch" or
"I'd rather be...oh wait I am" lic plate frame
5. minor cosmetic mods- painted hood pad, painted
letters on hood and rear, clear side markers, painted
cowl, interior knobs (Snake-Oyl), stripes if it's
not on there.

That's my top 5, but I'd also like to get wheels and tires, supercharger, possible paint job depending on the color of the Viper I land on, and maybe brakes (rotors and pads) depending on if I'd track it.

1. Gears
2. Gears
3. Gears

RedSled took me for a ride in his RT/10. My head was bouncing off the seat! Chicks Hate It!! It's got to be the gears................

[meggleto]

1. Supercharger kit with air filter (I haven't seen any big gains for header, exhaust or smooth tubes mods)

2. ECU replacement like AEM, Haltech, Motec. (Vec I/II seem to work but not enough toys in them)

3. Competition Tires (Victoracers, A032R's so I can put the power down)

4. Adjustable Suspension (Set on soft to drive to the track/autox, switch to firm to lay the smack down, switch back to soft and drive past the Bowtie guys while they're loading the cars back on the trailers)

5. Hot passenger to ride with me.
