    Favorite Gen IV code reader/clearer?

    Hey, all... I'd like to pick up a good code reader and code clearer for my '09 ACR. Hopefully not too expensive, but I don't want a "budget" compromise, either. Bonus points if the unit can be bought at typical (Autozone, O'Reilly/Kragen, etc.) retail stores. Thanks in advance for your...

    Personalized Plate

    ^^^^^Very nice, John. Now the inmates can get to work on mine... if it passes the editorial board, that is. Tick tock.

    Lil help, 08 vs 09 differences

    No longer true, happily. I run the skipshift eliminator on a stock 09 PCM, no CELs.

    Personalized Plate

    I had some similar ideas... and I think you're right. You're kinda tempting fate if you ever leave the car unattended. BTW, in California it's not permitted to substitute a number for a letter of an existing plate. In my case, I'd used the DMV web tool to find "P1T VIPR" and order it...

    Gen IV vs. Gen III: leg and headroom?

    I have no idea how you're driving that car with a stock seat setup. Knees and headroom were both a problem for me and I'm only 6'4"! If I recall correctly, the 1" drop kit will allow you to keep the under-seat electronics module mounted and permit seat adjustment. Once you get the 2" kit...

    Proud New NorCal Viper Owner!

    Hey, welcome to the club. Ditto what 72hemi said above; we'll both be at the Mopar Rally on June 5. And thumbs up on the road course days... I'd like to get the NorCal group together for that as well.

    535 Hp 600 Torque stock gen 4 viper !!

    I've seen this before, and for some reason it's not too uncommon to see a torque (and resulting HP) spike on a Dynojet trace. As mentioned, that's the cause of your aberrent peak number. Nice to see that your operator applied SAE correction to his results.

    Raptor shiftlight in Gen IV...

    I'm wondering if it's a loose connection to either the coil or ground. It has flashed on when at constant speed in traffic, no throttle or gear change.

    Raptor shiftlight in Gen IV...

    ...search reveals nothing more recent than June 2008. Who's using a Raptor shiftlight in their 2009 Viper? Mine's just in, and behaving similarly to what's been previously noted on this forum: seemingly random activation, sometimes a little flash... other times flashing non-stop. Turning...

    Picture in Autoweek of Vipers at the Blackhawk

    Meaning Blackhawk Auto museum in Danville, CA? If so, my guess would be Maurice (Liang). Post the pic!

    Key question. Exactly.

    Gen 4 FULL Belanger set up. Opinions?

    I'm pretty sure this is the first auto enthusiast internet thread in history that actually accomplished anything. Well done, sirs! And now I have "full exhaust" on my mind... dammit.

    Gen IV ACR rear KW adjustment...

    Thanks, guys. Anyone have a quality "mini" jack that they recommend for track days? My jack at home is a bit ungainly for the Viper trunk...

    ACR wheels

    Veering a little off-topic: would a set of ACR rims be my most cost-effective way to have a separate set of street wheels with PS2's? I'd kinda like to save my Sport Cups for the track. I'm sure there are many aftermarket wheels that people use on their ACRs for street driving, but I don't...

    Gen IV ACR rear KW adjustment...

    OK, the fronts are easy to adjust, but on the rear KW does one need to pull the wheel? Or can you get enough room if you just jack up @ the pumpkin?

    Gen IV ACR as a DD????

    That is so true. Also very true. I try to dd mine only on days that I can flex my commute hours farther off-peak.

    Gen IV ACR as a DD????

    I know where you're coming from; I'm a "drive it!" kind of guy, too. I have to admit that the beauty and holycrap styling of the car (once it's in your garage) have changed my original opinion on dd'ing the car. When I bought it, I thought I'd commute with it once a week (~64 mile round trip)...

    Dodge front bumper emblem/sticker?

    Verrryy nice, Bruce. Your car is probably one of the places I'd seen them. What do you think of the quality? I assume these are rub-on letters... or are they part of a single contiguous clear background?

    Dodge front bumper emblem/sticker?

    Well, there you go. That's the one... but jeebus, buried in a frenzy of sticker bling. Thanks for the link.

    Dodge front bumper emblem/sticker?

    Hesitant to post this for fear of flaming (Really? Asking about a bumper sticker?!), but I've seen pics of a couple Vipers that have the modern "Dodge" with two red slash bars graphic on one side of their front bumper. And now that I look for an example to show what I'm talking about... D'oh...

    How do I avoid swirl marks in the paint?

    Frickin' subscribed. This thread is like a Wiki. Thanks to Junkman for all the extensive, clear info and recommendations. Also to KCobean; the back-and-forth posts have become teaching tools. I can tell I'm gonna have a love/hate relationship with this car's paint: Snakeskin Green...
