    So I decided to check my compression and here is what I got..........

    I had some time on my hands this past weekend so I thought I would replace the plugs and check compression while I was at it. The car is a 96 RT10 (GenI) and the motor has over 25k on it since I’ve modded it (48K total). In all honesty I haven’t even taken off a valve cover. I race it and I...

    Calling out for some help on this one. A friend of mine buys a 2004 SRT with only 18k miles a month ago. He bought a Viper because I talked him into it.

    Speedo jumps ? All other gages OK ?

    It's an 02 RT10 and the speedo will spike (sometimes up to 100mph) if you give the gas a quick blip while sitting still. All other gages work fine. The Speedo works fine once you start moving. It seems to only do it when stopped Anyone heard / seen that one before ?

    Broke a Unitrax Half shaft - Thought it was rated for 1000hp

    I bought these new some 3-4yrs ? ago. I don't think I have more than 10k miles on them. I bought the higher hp ones for weight savings and a piece of mind knowing I would never break them. My car only makes 490/520 at the rear wheels on motor and I do spray it. Last night I had a short (no pun...

    So what could it be ? a POP every once in awhile from the rear end ?

    I've heard it four times now and I can't find anything wrong :mad: Everytime it's happened I've been either backing up stopped then starting forward or stopped and making a sharp turn to the left. It "POP"s and feels like I ran over something. The "POP" is hard enough I feel it. Only thing...

    Can coil packs have an intermittent problem?

    I’ve just developed this miss that I can only best describe as a cut out. Kind of like a having a bad spark plug wire but only worse. It’s definitely more than one cutting out. If I throttle up fast I get this miss but if I throttle up slowly. No miss? I’m now thinking coil packs but I always...

    My Battery is dead ! What to buy? Are Optimas worth it? and do they fit ?

    I bought my 96 in 2001 and had to buy a new battery then. Now 5 years later mine is finally dead (almost). I replaced it back then with a factory battery. No complaints here since the life seems to be 5 years. I'm tempted just to go back to the dealer and get another factory one. My good friend...

    Replacing the Center Speakers on a GenI - What do you think?

    I've been wanting to do this for some time now. The stock speakers have always looked cheap and I know it's mostly due to the covers. :smirk: I chose these Infinity Kappa speakers. Mostly due to the look and design. What do you think? It's only the grills but I wanted to see how they...
