    Carbon Fiber Airbox

    "It's mid-December at Atlanta Motor Speedway, sunny but 45 degrees, and the wind is blowing briskly across the infield of the big NASCAR oval. The temperature and low humidity suggest that the big V-10 engine in the Viper coupe droning around the infield track should have no problem cranking...

    VIPAIR™ Dyno Results on 99 RT 16 RWHP!!

    What's the deal with bashing the Vector? If nothing else it's based on sound theory-and apparently it doesn't come in white btw.. if you read through the ebay ad completely. Why would the color matter anyway? It's an odd group here sometimes..guys post about their aftermarket Gen 3 throttle...

    ACR WHEELS

    Seems to me I read once guys restoring and preserving cars would chrome parts under the hood etc then paint over them. The chrome being a good anti-corrosion barrier I guess. Painting over chromed wheels is easy..a little sandblast with a gentle media in the blaster to give the paint...

    ACR WHEELS

    :rolaugh: I wouldnt think the chroming isn't FREE. Add in the shipping risks both ways, quality of chroming and metal prep before chroming etc. Lots of risks when sending out a set of primo ACR wheels to be chromed. Better to find a set done right

    '96 GTS Indy Pace Car Decals....Get em' before it's too late!!!

    Re: \'96 GTS Indy Pace Car Decals....Get em\' before it\'s too late!!! If only you'd hyped it a little more... - I'm still saving for a $450 oil cooler screen anyway. (McMaster anyone?) :bonker:

    1992-2002 Light Flywheels, $399 while they last.

    Since the Driveline section of your website is Under Construction, do you think you could tell us how much less than OE these flywheels weigh?

    Elite Air Box

    The cool factor alone, it's worth 100 horsepower easy. I haven't performed any back to back dyno testing to give you a scientific measurement.. Don't forget the M2 airbox quote above. Testing isn't necessary for Viper products you know; just pick a number out of thin air that will be...

    Congrats John Hollandsworth! 701rwhp/702rwtq

    Did it? In your Original post (click) almost a year ago, it was noted that at the same time the updated VEC2 was added to your car, and how that VEC2 allowed all kinds of fuel and timing adjustments. If there hasn't been any independent and seperate back to back testing of the airbox then...

    New Car & Driver with Supercar Challenge just came

    :rolleyes: Well...there was some grumbling that in spite of Car & Driver's rules on arriving with an empty or near empty tank, and their overseeing of the 93 octane re-fueling, the pungent odor from [******] Viper's exhaust told anyone with a calibrated nose that something other than 93...

    New Design from CCW....HOT

    Most people with 19" Michelins have said they spin easier than the 18" Michelins. Plus the Michelins are like 2lbs heavier each. The sidewall's thinner, so it's constructed heavier to absorb road impact. That weight's way at the outside where it'll give you a heavier flywheel effect to...

    New Design from CCW....HOT

    Agreed! Even with the 18's I'm slewing sideways when I punch 1st or 2nd gear, the 19" tires don't offer enough traction. I'd like to see less of a reverse lip on a Viper aftermarket wheel. It's just a big dust catcher, and looks ricey.
