    Gen IV; Paint Blasted from inside of Rear Wheel Wells

    This is not your standard "rock chips" situation on the inside of the wheel well. Big chunks of the paint came off and only in the one wheel well. Again, the Dealer will fix this and I will consider a Venture Shield coating like I have on many other portions of the car. Apparently from this...

    Gen IV; Paint Blasted from inside of Rear Wheel Wells

    Dealer will cover this matter. This is not standard "sand blasting" from the road. Instead, big pieces of paint on the passenger rear wheel well on the inside behind the wheel are flaking off. (this spot is about 1.5" wide. There is no flaking on the outside of the wheel well--all of the...

    Gen IV; Paint Blasted from inside of Rear Wheel Wells

    I will check again but my paint guy said the blue was flaking off so I think it is just debris blasting.

    Gen IV; Paint Blasted from inside of Rear Wheel Wells

    Just noticed that the paint on the rear inside of my passenger rear wheel well is blasted to show some of the yellow beneath the paint (my car is GTS blue). It looks like debris thrown from the tire has just taken the paint off. While it is easy enough to have my guy repaint the area, I am...

    08 mods

    I am still on the fence on the K & N Air Intake--waiting for some verification of the 18rwhp claimed gain. AT $575 or so and going "non-factory" I am not sure this is a good mod. On my Z06 K & N claimed 27rwhp. Maybe Dodge was straight with us when they indicated that the factory air intake...

    09 ACR vs 09 ZR1, Forum Wars on Speed Channel

    Great Event! Please let us know when we can see the article! Does your ACR have Headers and the Mopar PCM with programming? Just curious! Why 1/8th Mile instead of 1/4? It sounds like you did an excellent job representing the Viper Nation! :usa:

    2010 Viper Details - LIVE from Laguna Seca!

    Thanks Martin! I am with you--I like 1-4, and would love to shorten 5th and 6th on my '08. Hopefully Jon and Mark and others will keep us posted on various alternatives!

    2010 Viper Details - LIVE from Laguna Seca!

    Anyone know about this? Also, it would be great to know the difference between this gear change and the overall 3:55 gear swap. Thanks!

    Can the new 5th gear be added to a 2008 Viper? It would be great to have shorter gearing there!

    3.55 SWAP Part #'s

    What happens to top speed in a Gen IV with the 3.55 Gears? I recall that stock we are looking at 202 mph in 5th gear. Is top speed in 6th gear with the 3.55s? If so, what is the estimated top speed for an otherwise stock car? Thanks!:usa: Btw, I have always been a VCA Member but the...

    Gen 4 intake from K&N, 18HP....

    K & N makes nice products--I have owned several. That said, it is highly unlikely that you would get 30rwtrq from an air intake. I will wait for the DC report.

    viper vs. sl65 amg.....

    The SL65 will crush you in a drag or street situation. You need a supercharger. On a roadcourse, things are more interesting and the Viper could have an advantage. The post about the Gen III or Stock GTS beating C6Zs is also false. I had a C6Z before my Gen IV Viper. No matter what, you...

    Used 09' ACR value?

    It is very hard to do well on a Dealer trade. However, it is less of a problem and generally closes the deal for good (vs. private party potentially calling later). Btw, Ford GT is a great car except: (1) no room for anything; (2) super tight head room; and (3) consistently overheats (stock...

    Any Great Deals on OEM '08 Tires????

    It is getting time for new tires and I was wondering if anyone knows of any great deals out there? Usually, I just go to TireRK, but their prices are pretty steep right now. I also need tires for a different car so I could do a package deal if that helps. Thanks for your thoughts!:usa:

    Who's keeping their SRT 100% stock?

    Ahh, have you spent any time on road race tracks? With roughly 620 fwhp in my viper, power is not the issue. Driver ability, downforce, suspension and maybe tires are more relevant. As to California emissions requirements, they are VERY strict. We have visual and sniffer tests and the bar...

    Who's keeping their SRT 100% stock?

    My '08 is great from the factory. Only mods: Corsa Exhaust; 6-points from PartsRack; short shifter; windown tint; iPod adapter; mats; SS brake lines and Castrol SRF; and venture shield everywhere where it is needed! I do not want the drone or legal problems associated with headers (I am CA)...
