    1996 GTS High Idle (2500-3500) at high altitude (8000-9000 ft)

    This issue is very common on head and cam change cars when the tuning is not precise. There is an area in the Map where the computer does not understand the relation between MAP and TPS, the high idle is mostly timing advance, not IAC motor steps. The computer reads Barometric pressure through...

    Is anyone running BC Coil Overs?

    You get what you pay for. There is a reason these are priced they way they are. Just understand that when you make the purchase. Don't expect these shocks to perform like a MCS, KW or a Penske product. Its like comparing a Rolex and a Timex.

    Supercharged v-10!

    I spoke to Dick Winkles (Viper Engine platform engineer) and he indicated there are no plans to supercharge the G5 Viper engine for production. He indicated that the supercharged engine's that were delivered to Arrow were Hellcat V8's destined for the Drag Pack Challenger, which last came with a...

    What better throttle on dodge viper srt10 paxon 750hp?

    I like the BBK. The single blade Throttle Bodies are better for peak power but sometimes I have issues with them sticking. The low speed throttle response does not seem as good either. Just my opinion Dan

    Viper Track Event at Buttonwillow Jan 17-18, 2015

    A hard top or rollbar is required. I am currently trying to get some hardtops to use at the track. If you do track your car Jay, you might consider a rollbar.

    Power Steering Issue 97 GTS - Question for members

    Call Jon at Partsrack or Sean at Roe Racing. They both can provide you with the PS pump bracket (improved) and an upgraded aluminum pulley. You might want to replace the high pressure hose as well. Snake Oyl has an aluminum fill tank as well, the plastic one tends to warp and leak with track use.

    Stainless Brake Lines for Gen V?

    Jon is correct. SRF has the highest boiling point, great for use in track cars that have issues boiling the fluid and getting a soft pedal. Draw back is this fluid is very expensive and hydroscopic, meaning is will absorb moisture quicker than other fluids. Flush it often and make sure the...

    No compression in cylinder

    If a cylinder has no compression then a leak test will only determine if you have a broken piston or bad valve. With no compression its gonna be one or the other. Either way the engine will need to come apart. Sorry to hear about your issue.
