    Who is selling programmers for the DIYer?

    Esteemed Colleagues: Are any vendors selling PCM flash programmers wherein you can create/modify your own tune?:dunno: I did some searching and only came across programmers that limit you to 2 or 3 vendor provided custom tunes with the option to have the vendor 'fine tune' via your provided...

    Drag Radial and inexpensive rear rims

    I just ordered some of those :omg: M/T ET Street Radial IIs. The size I've been waiting for is finally here, the 345/35/18. I've had very good luck/times running these, albeit a smaller size, on my Grand National. They wear a little faster than the Nittos (2nd choice), but the M/T are the...

    Nitrous - Info to select Window Settings and Cam

    I've been running nitrous since when TBI motors were 'IT" and SFI was but a dream (pre-Grand National) nevertheless, I continue to educate my noodle by reading various theories, application, and tune tune tune it on my motors. Very often I see inquiries about window switch settings, cam...

    New VEC timing table

    Just a quick update in some revised street gas timing table for my 02 GTS. So far, no problems on pump gas, although I added a little more fuel of 2ms pulses. Low/midrange SOTP is certainly there, even on 100 degree days. I also moved the IAT out of the 'open' box, and into the base of the...

    Tell me the scan tool to use for viewing STFT and LTFT

    I'd like to log and/or view more data than that provided or accessable with my VEC II. For example, I'd like to view: STFT, LTFT, Spark Timing, IAT, TPS volts, oil and water temperature, etc... It would be great to see the timing table or delivered timing. Then if I could log it, along with...

    How to share a VEC tune?

    I wish this idea could find some traction. I have a simple nitrous tune I'd like to upload/share. Is there a central file sharing location?

    Too late for the Party ?

    Hello, I am finally going to get serious about tuning my GTS buggy with its VEC II. I recently updated from true OEM to a free flow exhaust (bullets), step colder plugs, fresh air intake (filters/smooth tubes), and TNT nitrous (Texas Nitrous Technology). All good. Prior to the above changes...

    Swapping heads

    With all the recent posts I have read on stryker and goods heads, I think a swap is in order for my 2002 GTS puffdaddy buggy. From the looks of it, this appears to be a simple weekend job. Any tricks I should know about? Thanks in advance ! :cool:

    Upgrade to 708 Lumpy Cam or aftermarket?

    I am looking to port and polish my heads and figured while they are off, I might as well drop in a cam...assuming a few things. So I need a little help/advice here. This will go in my 2002 GTS that I run a little 100 shot of nitrous through every so often. I'd like the cam to 'drop it' using...

    Stock wheel & tire. Tire slipping on rim !

    This is the first car I have experienced tire slip while on the street. My GTS w/stock tire & wheel will spin the tire on the rim when I dump the clutch from a stand still or hit a hard 1-2. Strange, the tires are not 'old' either. I remember there is a 'home' remedy that works very good...

    Can you recommend a place in North Texas for a gear swap?

    I would like to drop in a set of 3:55s or 3:73s in my 2002 GTS. The car is used for 'heavy street' action and will undergo a little TNT here when I get time. I've done the searches and have narrowed the choice down to 3:55s or 3.73s. And while I battle myself on which gear to use, I...

    Need recommendation for install of knock sensor

    I have a good handle on the VEC II tuning for my GTS. What a great product, it will sure be a benefit if/when I add 'the juice', especially since I own a creampuff. Anyway, I was surprised to discover we do not have a knock sensor in our cars ! Wow...so along with my wideband install, I want...

    1/4 or 1/8 mile times with 150 shot?

    I have not had much luck searching the site for some drag times with someone running a small shot of juice on a relatively stock GTS of the 'Cream Puff' variety. So, would it be an accurate statement that one can run the 1/4 in the low 11s with only a small shot of juice, say 100 to 150? I...

    2002 GTS stock weight configuration

    Has anyone weighed their stock wheeled GTS at the track. I'm curious as to the weight of the GTS, say 2002, with 1/2 tank of fuel.

    Looking for spark tables

    I am looking for the spark/ignition tables for an '02 GTS. VEC2 seems to work off the delta so I would certainly like to know what the 'base map' contains.

    Has anyone installed 2003+ Intake on Gen II Motor

    I am new to the Viper community, and am curious if anyone has tried the 2003+ intake on a Gen II (i.e 2002 GTS) motor. It 'looks' like a vast improvement, and afterall, the increased HP on the '03+ is not solely from the increased cubes. Seems this would be an easy bolt-on. Since I'm pulling...

    Tell me how to track my GTS and protect motor

    Next year I plan to have a little road track fun with my '02 GTS. But I have come across several posts about blowing out the #3 rod and oil starvation on sweepers. I've done a few searches and just can't seem to peg the correct search words to nail this issue down, with specifics. Soooo, is...

    Who are the preferred Viper Techs and Dealorships in DFW

    I am a new owner of a 2002 GTS. I am a car freak and do much of my own work, but......professional help is sometimes called for. So I would greatly appreciate some opinions on what shops and techs you can trust in the Dallas, Fort Worth, and Frisco (where I live). Wouldn't hurt to also know...

    GTS Newbie

    Just wanted to introduce myself. Last night I picked up a GTS Creampuff....bright red. I am a car freak. I tune, race, build, blow-up and fix all my own stuff. I have always loved the looks of these cars and am thrilled to now own one. Just to show you how bad I am, yesterday (same day I...
