    Get more boost from your Roe Blower!

    Oh man, Kenny. That really stinks. I feel terrible for you. I know how excited you were about the project and I almost felt like a part of it by the way you kept everyone posted on the new goodies and the status of the build. Because I am also a Roe supercharged Viper owner, I was very...

    Get more boost from your Roe Blower!

    Kenny, What kind of street drivability problems are you having? High end miss? Partial throttle stumble? Poor transition from vaccuum to positive manifold pressure? With all the time and money you have invested with your tuner, I would have hoped for 100% flawless performance out of that beast.

    What is it with some people....

    I usually just drive around with no pants on. That ends the "you must have a small weiner" crap REAL quick. And after most people see the dyno sheet from my supercharged GTS, they don't even QUESTION the size of my balls. :)

    What is it with some people....

    Wow. I have NEVER had any negative reactions (physical or verbal) to my GTS. I've gotten literally dozens of "thumbs ups", I've had guys and girls yell out the window that they love the car, I've had girls ask me to marry them (even with another girl in my car) and I've had people standing...

    How to get 600 RWHP with a N/A motor?

    Top, A good set of headers and a free flowing exhaust, plus filters, smoothtubes, ported and polished heads, a more agressive cam and a VEC2 for tuning, should get you somewhere in the neighborhood of 550 rwhp on pump gas. To pick up the extra 50 rwhp n/a would require going through the motor...

    Aftermarket Intake Questions

    I also have the PBJ airbox, smooth tubes and catch can. The quality on all products is top notch. Another advantage to the PBJ airbox that you will probably not find with any other airbox is that it relocates the air temp sensor to the middle of the airbox, directly behind the NACA duct. (Look...

    I'm sick of haters including Viper owners

    Re: I\'m sick of haters including Viper owners I can honestly say I was extremely surprised by this thread for two reasons. One, because I've never had anything but positive experiences from 99% of the people out there on the road about my car...(the other 1% being the guy who catches his...

    Where else to buy a Roe supercharger ?

    I bought mine from Tony Armour (1TONY1). He gave me a great deal on not only the supercharger itself, but also the water/methanol kit and the sparkplug wires. Everything arrived EXACTLY as he said it would and very quickly. I highly recommend contacting him. Excellent customer service.

    Roe Supercharger Limits

    I think the highest hp Roe cars (including heads/cam/rockers and all supporting mods) are right around 750 rwhp. That's a VERY stout car if you can get it there. I'd say if you can get a solid 750 rwhp on pump gas and no NOS, you have a VERY strong Roe car.

    REPLACE GTS REAR WINDOW STRUTS??? NEED HELP!

    I ordered those exact same ones myself. Shipping was super fast and it only took about 10-15 minutes to install. Hatch pops up on its own and stays up. No more lifting it myself and trying to get it to "catch" at the top. No more having it bash me in the back of the head when I'm leaning in...

    supercharger

    Synfull/Gary, I am not much of a mechanic, but I installed the Roe blower myself on my car in a weekend. I did have a buddy help with the electrical stuff because it makes me nervous as all hell. Basically, instead of using all of the "quick connects" to hook up the VEC2, he stripped back the...

    supercharger

    Anotn, First and foremost, it's my humble opinion that you should consider your supercharger choice based on performance goals, not simply based on sound. That being said, if you like the sound of the 03 Cobras, then you'll like the sound of the Roe blower. Roe basically uses a Kenne Bell...

    Nice Story about the generosity/kindness of the Viper Community

    That's an AWESOME story. The one thing I told our Kansas City Viper Club president when I was thinking about buying my Viper is this, "It's not just about the car. It's about the kind of people who own them." It makes me proud to hear stories like that and know that not only are we a group...

    Anyone close to Olathe, KS 66061 Carchex dosn't go there.

    Anyone close to Olathe, KS 66061 Carchex dosn't go there.

    Re: Anyone close to Olathe, KS 66061 Carchex dosn\'t go there. There are several Viper Club members here in town. Any one of us could probably find time to go check it out. Several of us will be at a big car show tomorrow, so I'll ask around. If you can email to me some details about the...

    Bravo -10; Halfshaft - 1

    Well, I did a little closer inspection under the car tonight. It looks like it's not so much the halfshaft itself that broke, but the passenger side u-joint. The halfshaft is still intact and just laying on the framerail. The caps on the side closest to the pumpkin even look "ok". Once I...

    Bravo -10; Halfshaft - 1

    Well, it was bound to happen. I took the Viper to the track Saturday with the new setup. I wanted to see if the car would run a 10 second pass on the BFG drag radials and pump gas. My first pass right out of the box was a 11.48 with a 1.85 short time. Knowing that they were going to piss and...

    What to do, what to do...

    Other than Mike Anderson's shop, the only guy I let touch my Viper is Joe Donovan at Performance by Joe in St. Louis. It is MORE than worth the 4 hour drive each way to make sure my car is in the best hands possible. He's also one of the very few independent shops (non Dodge dealership) to be...

    Need Opinions on Roe

    I've got an almost brand new pair of those Roe cats sitting in my garage. Less than 500 miles on them. 3" in/out. PM me if you're interested.

    How driveable is your supercharged Viper?

    I have the Roe blower on my car, as well. Until you put your foot to the floor, you'd never know it was there. I have the big TNT 1 3/4 headers, 1.7 rockers and a custom exhaust built to my specs with mufflers and resonators which I picked. I "allegedly" don't have cats on the car, but it's...

    New custom airbox

    I am using a 50/50 mix of pure methanol that I buy from a race shop and distilled water. That's what Joe recommends. The car runs better and he was able to roll in more timing with it set up that way. Truth be known, it's not much more expensive than washer fluid. I paid $2.50 gallon for...

    New custom airbox

    Thanks guys. I'm very pleased with it. Between pulling in more cool air, having better flowing filters and relocating the intake air temp sensor (plus the upgraded piping for 3" throttle bodies down the road), I think it was a bargain. It also has the collateral benefit of hiding the...

    New custom airbox

    I believe they'e a standard K&N conical filter with a 3" outlet. I've had these types of filters on all of my other cars. I've never had to replace them. Rather, you just take them off, clean them and re-oil them. K&N makes a "filter charger" kit that comes with one can of cleaner...
