    GTS Coupe Water leak

    The foam around the fitting at the top of the heater box goes bad.Put a towel in the foot well and run a garden hose slowly around the fitting at the top of the heater box. Water will probably come in. If so, pack some paper towels around the fitting and the water should stop. The fix is to fill...

    Yet Another Annoying Gen V Article

    My last subcriptions to all those mags expired in 1996. They kept me from buying a new 1992 Viper. The first time I realized they were full of it ,was when someone's article praised the new 1979 Ford Turbo Mustang so much I traded my 6 month old 1979 Corvette for one. After buying my 1995 Viper...

    Purchase 06 SRT10 vs. 08 SRT10

    I know it's not the exact color combo you want. I am open to some discussion. I am only about 10 miles from Doug Levin if you would like his opinion on condition.

    Some time has passed - these are my IMOs

    It's not about the big number. It's about the smallest "1". The ring is not enough. I like rocket g's not skidding into walls.

    Purchase 06 SRT10 vs. 08 SRT10

    Between the gears 4000-6000 rpms. The power drops down lower than the N/A car and takes longer to get back to it's peak horsepower in the supercharged car.

    Some time has passed - these are my IMOs

    My opinion has changed too. I no longer want 700hp. I want 800hp. Brute horsepower over technology works for me.

    need new windshield - 2009 ACR

    In some states (FL) windshield replacement is free under your insurance policy (State Farm). No deductable. Safelite replaced mine in my driveway. He said he only did high end cars for the company. Better still he asked that I watch him during the whole process. Took a little over an hour and...

    your thoughts on my mod list.

    Depending on the price of the Gen V I may not sell my Gen IV either. The only mod I haven't done yet is the ported manifold and I am already at 600rwhp. So....headers,yes. With or without mufflers or cats base it on how much noise you can stand. Probably the best combo would be headers,no cats...

    Purchase 06 SRT10 vs. 08 SRT10

    There is no comparison between a supercharged Gen III and a Gen IV with headers and pcm. Though most base supercharged cars put down 650rwhp compared to 600rwhp on a modded Gen IV. The Gen IV will be 2-3 tenths quicker in the quartermile,10-15 mph faster in the standing mile and faster on a road...

    FOR SALE: 1997 GTS, Blue/White, $27,000

    If people buy 150,000 mile Honda Accords I don't see a problem with a 100,000 mile Viper. If it drives and sounds good when you buy it thats all you can ask for when buying a used car.Certainly the parts alone would cover the purchase price. What a great daily driver.

    anyone powershifting?

    Move your seat or pedals so that your knee is not fully extended when you push in the clutch. This will keep your body from moving from side to side. Next on the 2-3 shift the spring in the shifter keeps it lined up to go right into 3rd. The trick is to trust it by not grabbing the shift knob...

    Apology to Ralph Gilles and Dick Winkles

    Don't confuse complaining with disappointment. I love the car. They brought it back(better than ever)and that they pretty much gave us everything we asked for (except 700+ hp). I don't think I ever went to a meeting where a Dodge representative spoke in the past 15 years that the number one...

    Gen V Debut Compared to the Gen III Debut ?

    Paul, the Car they showed ended up being the Comp Coupe. It was presented as a production car with full interior in Las Vegas. If it wasn't going to be the production model Dodge certainly didn't try to tell anyone otherwise at the time. The Gen III was certainly a very watered down version of...

    Gen V Debut Compared to the Gen III Debut ?

    They showed us a Competion Coupe styled car in Las Vegas. It was an instant hit with most everyone there. Then for some reason they made the Gen III as we know it. It turned out to be a big disappointment and Dodge didn't do as well with it as they should have. Looks like they are going to miss...

    Only 640 hp? WTF

    Well, I've read the posts and have begun to feel better about the car overall. I am very disappointed with the low horsepower still. We all know 700hp is there,just give it to us. SRT you have done an outstanding job bringing the car more current while keeping some of the best styling ques from...
