    2 inch seat drop

    Need more info. What year is your car? Pass side seat lowering kits are different from drivers side. Gen III 2-inch kit installs fairly easily on pass side. Gen IV 2-inch kit is more work on pass side. Lowered seat will not fit over Amp, must relocate. I put the Amp behind the seat. While...

    e-brake relocation kit

    There are pluses and minuses to every track I've run. I prefer higher speed tracks in the 09 ACR and enjoy ACS Fontana best so far, though the infield could be improved there. I'd agree that CW was not ideal for Viper or any higher hp car as the longest straight is only 1330 feet. I maxed at...

    Adj. Sway Bar End Links HELP!

    Top one in your photo looks OK for the rear. Bottom one in your photo looks incorrect as stated. Install tip: when you get the correct front adjustable end link, you may have to trim the bolt a bit to eliminate pre-load, depending on ride height, i.e. if your car is lowered to smooth track...

    The Forum Wars: Viper ACR versus Modded Z06

    I recorded an episode for the "Forum Wars" last year. Ran my 09 ACR against an 09 ZR1. They never showed it. Guess who won? Tip, it wasn't that close. You're right, of course. Dan

    SCT Question.

    Hey Guys, Been down this road, i.e. bigger power and tuning. Lost two engines with improper tunes. Lots of wasted $$$$ by not going to the "Pros" the fist time. Tried AEM and while it made OK power, the unit I put in my SRT was designed for a GTS / RT. AEM should work OK for those of you...

    Gen V Photo in 4/11 C & D is Scary!

    Saw the prototype in SLC. These are not close......no worries. Will be very surprised if most of us don't like the styling of the new Gen V.

    Gen 4 FULL Belanger set up. Opinions?

    Want louder? Pull the cats - car screams! Belangers + Corsa Track, no cats for the track. Dan

    Gen 4 FULL Belanger set up. Opinions?

    redtanrt10 and I have done several dyno days together and I've done a few more. His comments are right on. Generally, the Gen IV car with headers, either American Racing or Blanger will make 40+ rwhp over stock. My own 09 ACR made 520 rwhp / 505 rwtq when new and bone stock on DC's dyno...

    Gen 4 FULL Belanger set up. Opinions?

    I've found it to be too loud, too much drone. IMHO, put a set of Corsa track mufflers behind it and it will not drone, will make more power and sound better too.

    what are the best options for ported heads and intake manifold for a Gen IV

    I'd ask about the power gains, hp and tq, that you might expect on a Gen IV before spending a bunch of $$$$ on porting heads as the OE heads flow very well. You could likely achieve very good increases in hp / tq by tuning, once somebody breaks the Gen IV code.

    Gen 3 tranny sticky going 1st to 2nd?

    Chad, 1 - 2 notchy feel is pretty normal in cold weather. I've been "double clutching" it, i.e. clutch in, shift to neutral, let clutch out for a few seconds, clutch back in, shift to second; for the first few cold shifts which helps smooth things out. All is OK when warm. Dan Dan

    Big Brake Dave's car Killer deal

    So, come on out and kick our butts! I'm just hoping my trans gets rebuilt in time. Car has been in the shop waiting for parts for the last 3 weeks. Anybody else lost a TR6060 trans? Dan

    Vette Forum's ZR1 vs ACR challenge?

    Like Magnus, I track my ACR whenever possible. I have noticed that the ZR1's start out pretty fast in the morning, then heat soak quickly as the day warms up, especially in longer sessions. I've tried supercharged cars at the track and didn't have much luck. Perhaps as technology improves, so...

    Vette Forum's ZR1 vs ACR challenge?

    Viper Days will be at Spring Mountain in Pahrump, Nevada October 22, 23 and 24. Lou has worked with Viper Days in the past and knows the people. He and other Vette owners should come out and drive the track with us - there's plenty of room still available. The ACR X series final and VRL...

    Gen. IV oil catch can installation

    The catch can I developed and installed is working very, very well. Very little oil in it (with 2 -10 AN lines and a large capacity billet can) in 8 track events pulling 1.5 + G's in an 09 ACR. It is also easily converted back to OE for emissions testing. PM if interested, provide your...

    Big Brake Dave's car Killer deal

    Looking into driving the day before now.....likely drive the 3 sessions in the afternoon on Thursday. Never been to Miller so won't have much time to learn the track and certainly wont' set any records (maybe slowest ACR?). As you know, there's "track time" and there's "VOI track time" with an...

    Unfortunately, there won't be a Challenge Series at VOI. Was really looking forward to driving Miller for the first time. I'll see you at the finals at Spring Mountain. Dan

    Seat Lowering

    Installed the 2-inch in my 09 ACR. Have to relocate the Gateway module. Not that big a deal.
