    Might be buying a B/W GTS this week!

    Depends. If 2001's are only worth low 40s, how is an older '96 at that price such a questionable sale? After having 5 Gen 2s I know there aren't many differences between the years, but there should be some price differential between cars 5 yrs apart.

    Anybody know this car?

    I emailed the seller in TX, all he would say is it's "Real nice" then wouldn't reply when I wanted more info before thinking about it seriously.. Autocheck says it spent most of its' life around Palintine, IL.

    Another Intake Question for a Noob

    You seem fairly intent on bolting some doo-dad on your car.. Like they said, there isn't much if any HP to be had with typical bolt ons. Some things can even slow you down. Save for the blower..

    Viper on the edge of 200MPH in the 1/4

    Myself, I fail to see the difference. If the rest of the car has had just about every OEM mechanical part changed at huge expense, harping about the rear suspension in an anything goes class is pointless.

    Will I notice any diffirence?

    I met you at Bakers Hemi Head, I had the '01 Bumblebee ACR there last summer. 3 inch Borla exhaust on my car slowed it down at the strip so I sold the exhaust. I did manage over 123 mph with other easy mods though. (11.80 best)

    Headers on Creampuff

    H pipe on my catless 2001 ACR dropped ET average from low 12 teens to 11.91. That's over 20hp for a few hundred

    Help Me ID a 2001 ACR

    The ACR oil filter adaptor is internally different than non ACR oil filter adaptors. If those oil filter adaptors look different from the outside, or if the hoses in that area are different somehow, that could give you a clue to whether it's a real ACR or not. Someone selling a clone probably...

    Kool Vue Muffler

    If you use the stock tips they are double walled and the outside doesn't get as hot as the inside part. Aftermarket tips are sometimes double walled

    Crank Case Vent Issue

    Mine wasn't blowing bad, but I cut slots into the spigot that holds that little filter, forming tabs to hold some small pieces of fire retardant foam I had lying around. I shoved the foam down into the catch can spigot and bent the newly formed tab over enough to keep the foam from being blown...

    Roe used to use plastic but after some troubles...went to metal tubing inserts is the story I heard a few years ago

    Exhaust sound

    Instead of buying a complete new system, why not replace the B&B mufflers with some Dynomax muffs?

    Help with exhaust

    Maybe.. I added a 3" Borla 4 muffler catback to an experimental undersill system that had no cats on my '01 and lost .25 second at the strip. It was louder-but not quicker. One of two others have noted an ET or HP loss with the 3" Borla on a near stock Viper. Exhaust is tricky stuff...

    loudest exhaust?

    Depends what you'd be using aft of the factory exhaust manifolds. I kept mine and the OE rear exhaust as well, but added some things of my own design under the sills. It managed 123.2 mph at the strip on drag radials. Not bad for a creampuff '01.. Adding 3" Borla slowed me down .25sec so that...

    Borla exhaust great , service sucks

    Had the same problem when one of the welds on the rear hanger in my new Borla catback broke before I put it on. They sent me a complete new catback, then sent me a UPS shipping label to have the first one sent back to them because there just aren't any individual parts to be had..

    is woodhouse really going to charge me $45 to ship motor mounts?

    I disagree with your shoving the blame to Darko. If that's a Woodhouse website, then the charges would have been or appeared to have been what he saw, and those fees would have been excessive. Glad it all got worked out.

    Seems like they'd fit in a USPS Priority Mail Box that's under $12 to ship anywhere in the US.. :bonker:

    so tubes and filters alone were good for 2mph in the 1/4 *before & after slips*

    By the way, just to set the record straight, the idea that " a .1 sec reduction in 60' time = .3 sec quicker at the end of the strip is so far off it's not funny. At least on near stock Vipers For example, PAULS had a 1.375 60' when he went 11.05 on slicks. That about a .6 quicker 60' than I...

    Give me a shout a few days in advance, I'll definitely try and be there one way or the other
