    Tire sensor ??

    I have HRE’s 542 with Pilot Sport Cups. The sensor is in the valve stem, they are very easy to install. I have a tire changer but it can’t handle low profiles wheels so I had a local tire shop do the mounting and balancing. Anyway, it’s not a big deal, just $$ to get the wheels broken down...

    Horn sounds weak

    yep, I have installed 2 and they both did that. You don't need a horn any way, your car is faster than the speed of sound w/Paxton.

    Tire sensor ??

    I have 2 sets of wheels. I put sensors on the other set of wheels too. $39 each sensor (Dodge dealer), I change the wheels back and forth no problem. Jon also told me they would have to be reprogrammed by the dealer, but they don’t. You do have to be careful not to break the sensors when...

    Sport Cups on HRS's

    Sport Cups on HRS\'s Sport Cups installed on HRE 542’s. The front and rears are about an inch wider than stock so they are flush with the body. The rims in the rear barely touched the calipers so I made some wheel shims to move the wheel out a tad. I used 2 .06” shims on each side...

    Engine light, will not crank, help

    I don’t know yet, I have e-mailed them to ask if this is possible. One possibility could be, the Racelogic unit is connected the #1 ignition signal wire and some how it shorted causing something to go wrong with the ignition. I placed the control in the engine compartment and with all the rain...

    Engine light, will not crank, help

    The ASD fuse was blown. I replaced it and the car will start, but it runs very rough. I took a spin around the parking lot and the fuse blew again. My scanner is now reporting “ignition coil A primary/secondary circuit malfunction”. I guess the coil is down somehow. Anybody seen this before?

    pilot sport cups

    I busted a valve stem while mounting the Cups so I have no test results to share, but the difference between the stock wheels/tires and the Cups is 64lbs. Rear tire/wheel 72lbs vs. 55lbs, front 65lbs vs 50lbs. 34lbs savings with the StopTech rotors equal 98lbs total weight loss. Should get...

    Drive an SRT with Traction Control today

    There is a rainforest on the other side of the planet that is now a dessert because all the rain is over here. Out of town all week (beautiful weather) and can’t play with my Viper and when I return, rain, rain, rain. I posted some pictures of the install in my gallery for reference. Anyway I...

    Drive an SRT with Traction Control today

    On the way into the office this morning, I was playing around with the TC. On the 10% slip setting I was launching fairly hard (75%) and no spin, I was really cool. Normally when I launch hard I get the tires hooked up initially, the acceleration is great and then when I reach 4K the back end...

    Drive an SRT with Traction Control today

    I took it out and around town earlier tonight, it was still raining but I could not get the back end to come around. I took about 8 hours to install and was pretty straight forward, though I am pretty familiar with the guts of the car by now with all the stuff I have installed. The hardest...

    Drive an SRT with Traction Control today

    Re: Drove an SRT with Traction Control today Sorry, thought I would tease a bit. Anyway, I installed the Racelogic unit this weekend and so far it seems like it is going to work out well. It is pouring down rain today so I can only report on the “wet” setting. Giving it moderate gas off a...

    Viper Comment of the Day

    I was filling up at a gas station, when this beat-up old Chevy pick up pulled along side and revved his engine. I gave him a look like, what do you want. The guy leaned out and said, “I'm just a dumb country boy, but that is the prettiest thing I ever seen . . . . except for my wife’s a$$”...

    Vendor Report Card

    I thought I would share my experiences with Viper vendors that I have dealt with: PartsRack – I have bought a bunch of stuff here, they are consistently very prompt with delivery, for a guy who does all his work on the weekends, getting everything by Friday is vital. They always include a...

    I think I've been duped

    Re: I think I\'ve been duped I reported just the facts guys. John told me he had one set of Motons in stock, they were promised to someone else but their credit card did not go thru so he would send them to me. I said great, please make sure they arrive on Friday or before so I can install...

    Paxton Superchargers

    I admit it I have been lurking. I have personally installed 2 Paxton units. The first time, it took me from Friday night to Sunday night solid. The second time it tool about half that. The installation is pretty straight forward but you need to be mechanically inclined. Both times the water...

    I think I've been duped

    Re: I think I\'ve been duped You took my exact story, I ordered Motons 3 weeks ago and every time I call John says they shipped and UPS lost them and UPS will not give him any answers. I ask for the tracking number and John promises to call me right back. He doesn’t, so I have to call back...

    Why did you buy your Viper?

    I was actually looking at the 911 in various versions. My wife is the one who got me on the Viper. She asked me what was special about the Porsche. I said engineering, performance, quality, always wanted one and so on. She responded with “I see them all the time, every middle age man has...
