Viper Owner
I'm in a little bit of a conundrum. I have a GTS Viper with 7,000 original miles, 100% OEM. I realize that the car being OEM definitely adds to the "collector" appeal of the car.
I'd like to add a Corsa exhaust to the car, which is bolt on...shouldn't be an issue if I ever sell the car because I could just put it back to stock. But for the potential paint bubble issue (as well as sound/performance), I'm really considering getting a Random Tech high flow cat (which would need the stock cats cut off since it's not bolt-on). At this point I really lose the OEMness of the car.
In either case, I will be driving the car 1-4k miles a year probably, so it definitely won't stay at 7,000. With that in mind, is it even worth trying to keep it OEM to retain the value in the car?
Looking to get some of your thoughts as to what I should realistically do? Please no "drive it because it's meant to be driven" answers, as that doesn't really help lol.
