    PS2's GOING AWAY ???

    Had pirelli's on my SRT10 RAM and they so totally sucked I had to get them off at 4000 miles. Absolutely no traction, especially bad in the rain.

    Pleasantly surprised by my registration fees

    Not so much a matter of how much cash in, but rather how much spending / cash out. Simply the others don't spend as much, therefore no need for as much cash in. CA is a disaster when it comes to spending and that's why you're broke. Outrageous taxes and regulations are driving your business...

    Pleasantly surprised by my registration fees

    In the old days in MN they were based on weight and age and actually dropped to about $15 if the car was old enough. But then the tax mongers decided to tax based on value and they have their own "book" ... And yes I am very glad I don't live there. Besides the socialist govt and outrageous...

    Pleasantly surprised by my registration fees

    Ouch! FL tags are about $40 .. They used to be lower but state raised all fees a couple years back [no income tax either]. $600!!!! Another reason I'm glad I don't live in CA.

    So what's the Story on the SRT 10 Ram Trucks ?

    All I replaced was the carrier [ different offset with 4.10 and 4.56 ] and the gears. also the usual bearings, etc. Nothing wrong with the housing. The only thing that REALLY annoys me is that on a truck with this much power/tq is that they didn't put c-clip eliminators in there. Geeze...

    So what's the Story on the SRT 10 Ram Trucks ?

    (1) No it's not with a 31.5" tall tire. I had to pull the 4.10's out of my RC and put 4.56's in [ and it only cost a few hundred $$$ ] to make 6th even usable. I've ridden in my friends QC and it's just fine. He uses it as a DD BTW and has a pile of miles on it. With the 4.56's at 80 I'm...

    Josh at Roe Racing is THE MAN!!!!!!

    Sean is awesome. I sent him a question about getting a tune for my truck after hours and he answered my email an hour or so later. BTW he sent a new tune next morning straight away. And the price was right. This was not any sort of emergency or anything, 2 thumbs up for Sean ! The tune...

    O2 simms for GenIV

    The O2 simms for the JTEC powered Vipers [ pre GenIV ] won't work. To my knowledge nobody makes truly functional O2 simms for an NGC equipped Viper. You can *try* some of the tricks the LX/LC guys use like the anti-foulers and "mini-cats" which aren't 100% reliable or you can do the...

    10 Car Designs That Failed Miserably Guess What's On the List ?

    When I was at Lingenfelters years ago they were putting a Corvette driveline in one. It was for a GM exec ... I'll bet it hauled when they got done as well.

    Gen 4 T-stat

    170'F TStat and a SCT tune to lower the fan temps makes a huge difference on my GenIII ... Not sure what can be done with the GenIV.

    So what's the Story on the SRT 10 Ram Trucks ?

    I have an SRT10 Ram 6spd Regular Cab. It has the usual mods, long tubes, catless, cat back, flash, TB, 170TStat, K&N, etc. I use it as a truck, it tows my boat like you can't even tell it's back there, and pulling it out of the water is like taking off at any stop light. Monster brakes make...

    2006 SRT10 Vert with Paxton

    Oh hell yes. And you should inspect all the wires and/or replace them. Also dumping all that raw fuel into the exhaust when there's cats can cause issues there as well. --FQB

    2006 SRT10 Vert with Paxton

    Well besides the obvious being no 2 dyno's are ever the same, did you put the old tune back on and try that after the low readings on that same dyno, same day ? That would tell a lot. I'm assuming you have an SCT since you seem to indicate you are doing this remote with DC. Your dyno's are...

    Viper owners, what car inspection rules are required in your state?

    Years and years and years ago they had inspection in FL that consisted of checking lights, brakes on a brake dyno, wipers, exhaust for leaks, etc, etc. BUT thanks to some thoughtful people in Tallahassee they got rid of all that crap which resulted in a massive savings to the state. Haven't...

    Gen III N/A -vs- SC build

    I'm convinced now that a GenIII build is the way to go especially with the tuning issues. Going NA with some awesome heads, cam, intake and a catless exhaust is a definite advantage. It's been told to me by a tuner that putting a GenIV top end on a stock GenIII bottom end with a cam and good...

    Jack points on a Gen III viper

    If you look under the car just behind the front tires and just ahead of the rears you will see a piece of angle welded to the chassis with the "fold" pointed downward. Those are the jack points illustrated above. Very simple.

    What would you like to see as the NEW Engine for the Gen V Viper?

    DOHC makes the heads way too wide and it's way too much mickey mouse. Maintain the same old simple, brute power 600 - 700 hp and tq should be fine. I'm not sure about DFI in gas engines. The manufactures that have tried that like BMW and Porsche have had HPFP issues with them, and it requires...

    Wanting to buy a Twin Turbo (or similar) Viper. Questions..

    A Viper in stock condition is a pretty simple car and pretty easy to work on. Add a pile of complexity in external systems and you make it harder to access some bits. --FQB

    Question: RB4 Nav Unit in a RB1 Equipped SRT 10?

    There's a really slick "bean bag" mount that has a sticky rubber bottom and works like a real champ. Legal everywhere as far as I know and doesn't move, not in the Viper, not in the SRT10 RAM, not in the Challenger SRT8 .. Tried all of them. However, the big benefit to the RB1 in the Viper...

    Question: RB4 Nav Unit in a RB1 Equipped SRT 10?

    I put the RB1 nav unit in both my '06 coupe and my srt10 ram. Not only do you lose the 6 disk capacity of the RBq?, but if you're using the nav, you must have the dvd inserted so you better be prepared to listen to the radio or buy the xm or ipod interface because you won't be listening to...
