97 GTS ... considering replacing the cat with a test pipe (below) for more power and better sound. But am wondering if anybody knows of a straight though, bullet type muffler that's bolt-in for the cat assembly. Something I can take on and off without cutting for inspection purposes? Thank...
Except for the Viper, those other cars were either out of tune, babied down the 1320 or the drivers were very poor. Would have been a great day to be at the track tho.

Anybody here ever play around with an asymmetrical exhaust system as described in the paper?

Has anybody replaced their OEM resonators with chambered pipes. Looking to get a deeper tone to the exhaust note. Thanks

Couple noob questions I need help with.
1. How do you determine vehicle build date?
2. Regarding the 1997 high idle service bulletin (below), were most 97's effected by this? I'm assuming its pretty easy to spot using typical techniques to find intake leaks...
For a 2nd generation Viper (GTS), whats the "typical" life of the clutch? I know driving style and road profile has tons to do with it. But lets say this is A typical adult driven car, not raced. not seeing a lot of miles in traffic congestion. Thanks.
