    Who has put headers on their car?

    Lou at Belanger is the man! He walked me through everything before my purchase of the full system. My friend and I installed the complete system on my 04...no problems. Yes it is loud (in a good way), sort of like Armageddon when you start it in a parking garage…hehe. There is also drone at...

    Viper in Pikesville MD Today

    hahaha....a few years ago I was out in my snake looking for another daily driver and stopped by the dealership to look around. Well the sales guy was leaning into a car on the showroom floor and going into his long dissertation about pins stripes, undercoating, blah blah and it started...

    Scratched Viper idea and going with a C7 Z06

    The ZO6 should be a great car however I don't see GM leaving money on the table by charging ~$100K when the new Z28 costs $75K :omg: I'll keep my 04 w/ full Belanger system....it sounds as mean as it looks :D

    Is "new" VCA finally going to deal with bad supporting vendors?

    eBay has not allowed negative feedback for some time now so people are putting it as positive and then telling the real story in the text. I have only sold a few things on eBay and have gotten ripped off by the buyer more than once. Sold a car on eBay for $4K, buyer won auction and then never...

    Belanger install instructions

    Here are the instructions without pictures for 03-06 Viper. If you contact Belanger they will email you the document. A friend and myself installed the entire system and it fit perfectly.

In the good old days grounds would cause all kinds of issues but now there's a new...

    Heater Fan only works on high speed

    good notes about replacing motor and resistor together. I had already taken the motor out and cleaned and lubricated so the resistor should be fine for a while.

    Gotta ask...

    As everyone has mentioned already it really is all about the car. Mine is a triple black 04 with the 6-spoke wheels and every time I take it out there are many complements on the car. Like most others here I worked very hard for many years to get the car and feel very fortunate to own it and...

    Furious!

    The BMW pic is funny and the guy/girl deserved it. It does remind of the other side of the story when I had my M3 back in 99. I parked straight in at the last spot next to curb at far end of parking lot, no cars within 50-60 spaces. Came out of store to find an old pickup truck, well over my...

    Furious!

    PirateViper is not looking for your heart felt "condolences" he is trying to prevent damage to his car.... I do the same thing. The only time I take two spaces is if it is at the furthest end of the parking lot and the spaces are thin, you know so they can cram in a few more cars otherwise I...

    For those of us that have check engine light come on. Here is a tool that might help.

    Re: For those of us that have check engine light come on. Here is a tool that might h The adapters work great. I bought one of the larger ones but gave it to a friend and bought the really compact one instead. It is small and can be left plugged in while driving without being in the way. The...

    Radio Question

    Kenwood DNX6980. This is a double din unit and requires substantial modifications to the dash. I used Double D Mods for the bezel conversion. The antenna connection may have required an adapter but the car audio store will have the part. Reception does seem slightly better, maybe because of the...

    Radio Question

    My vert has same problem even with after market Kenwood system. The problem is related to the antenna type, location and gain characteristics. The two problems you are experiencing are low sensitivity and multi-path. FM radio is typically transmitted with a circular polarization to help combat...

    WTB OEM Car Cover for 2003

    just a quick note, if the cover is for use outside the OEM is not what you want. Even a small amount of wind can cause scratching of the paint and/or displace the cover even though it is form fitting and yes unfortunately this information is from personal experience. There are multiple threads...

    Gen V red with temp tags spotted in Denton MD

    Spotted a new Gen V, solid red with temp tags in town today out on the highway. Friend said he also saw it parked by the pizza joint a few times. Hopefully I'll get a chance to talk with the owner at some point. Until now my black 04 was the only one around, it's good to see someone else...

    Belanger questions

    I just installed the full Belanger system and it sounds great. As I mentioned in a different thread the drone is there but can be dealt with using gear selection. Example: at 30 mph = drone so shift into 4th. 40 mph in 4th =drone, shift to 5th, etc. At about 70 in 6th it will start droning again...
