    ARH, Belanger, Emissions in GA

    I have a full Belanger system with a single cat, utilizing the stock O2 sensors on my Gen IV and I have no issues in New York. I got to believe that it would pass GA. That said, you can always give them a call at Belanger they are glad to help and provide support.

    Quietest 3" exhaust?

    MoparMap, have you spoken yo Lou Belanger directly? He is surprisingly easy to get ahold of and loves talking exhaust for Vipers. I would recommend giving him a call and getting his advice. Kevin

    I went with full Belanger on my SRT-10. I know different generation but fit and instructions were very good. Also Lou himself will take a call if you have questions, whi lch is very helpful. Kevin

    2008 SRT 10 Differential clutches defective

    I will second, exactly what John said. I wanted the 3.55 gears and I worked with Jerry, he is Super nice and knowledgeable. I pulled my own rear-end (wasn't that bad of a project) and shipped it to California. I just did this in the spring, so if you have any questions feel free to contact me...

    Exhaust on a 2003 SRT10

    I have a gen 4 and went through this process of deciding what exhaust to get last year. I searched the internet and you tube videos to help me decide. I end up with a full Belanger system, header all the way back and couldn't be happy. If you want to discuss further, don't be afraid to call or...

    Aftermarket exhaust question

    I went with the 2.5" not 3", after speaking with Lou Belanger, 2.5" actually gives you better performance and a better sound. Yes 3" is louder but at cruising speeds it will be a loud drone and can be obnoxious. With the 2.5" it gives a louder sounds especially at higher RPMS but at cruising...

    Gen 4 New York State Inspection - Incomplete Readiness Tests

    All, I just wanted to send the update/conclusion. My battery was 6-7 years old and I ended up replacing it just to make sure this wasn't causing the issue. After that I tried all the steps/procedures posted on line to get the O2 and Cat test completed. I had a scanner and would check each time...

    Aftermarket exhaust question

    John D, I did a full Belanger system on my 08 in the fall. Everything else on my car is stock, and I kept the stock tune. I have 1000 miles on it since the installation and don't have a CEL. If you have any other questions about the installation, feel free to reach out to me directly...

    In your opinion, which is a better deal...

    Anthony, Last year I purchased a 2008 and I believe the Gen4 offers a lot more car than the Gen3 for a little more money. Like everyone else has stated it really depends on what you are looking for and the quality of the car not mileage. If you want to have a discussion about my similar...

    Fluids and How many Quarts?

    Ironically, I am in the middle of flushing my clutch fluid in my 2008. The car has only 12k on it and I didn't have any issue prior to flushing, just saw it was black and did it just for maintenance reasons. I was able to easily remove and refill the system by gravity bleeding. Everything seemed...
