    Gen 3 oil change tips

    Here in FL where it's very warm most of the time I use Mobil-1 15-50. I always have good oil pressure even after some spirited driving on a hot day. Probably can't do that where it's cold. Engine runs a lot quieter than with 0-40 as well. Tip #2, ALWAYS pre-fill the oil filter giving it...

    Who recommended EBC Redstuffs?

    Not sure what year your SRT10 Truck is but what part number were the EBC Reds for that? I've been looking all over and can't seem to find an EBC red for my truck.

    Just installed NGK IX Iridium 6441

    With plugs a couple drops of light oil like 3-in-1 are all you really need. After a good while the oil will carbonize and act like anti-seize and you'll never have any problems if installed to the torque specified in the FSM. Way less messy than anti-seize. Anti-seize is also acceptable but...

    Need new tires (I guess?)

    I'm needing new tires for my '06 coupe. I'm not a michelin fan boy and my choices due to the sizes are somewhat limited. I've used nitto's on several other applications in the past and loved them. I'm just trying to get a comparison opinion from someone that has used / driven both on Vipers...

    Need new tires (I guess?)

    Have you ever used the PS2's ? Can you provide a comparison of the PS2 vs Nitto Invo's ? 18's / 19's for a Gen III TIA

    Mopar exhaust = Borla exhaust ?

    I have the MOPAR exhaust and I love it! It is built by Borla. It has a rather unique muffler and isn't really all that loud but it does get rid of the cross over and the cats. The price by comparison is a bonus.

    San Diego Header Recommendation

    I have the M&M's on an '06 coupe. Fit good, do not leak, and have good hp gains. The M&M's are mild steel like Bellanger as opposed to American Racing and B&B which are stainless. I already had the MOPAR Performance exhaust which is actually fairly quiet compared to other after market...

    Poll - Mod Question

    The Quaife is awesome even N/A ... It launches straight, allows you to come off a corner a lot harder and won't fail. The stock diff is a piece of crap and is inconsistent at best. With a power adder it will die sooner rather than later. I have 3.55's and I absolutely love them. Makes 6th...

    Wheel hop.......

    What he said and : Initially the vibrations from the mounts is significant. BUT after a couple hundred miles it actually subsides quite a bit. And it does help with lots of things including hop, shifter feel, if you have headers they're a double bonus your tubes will last a lot longer. Cheap...

    How far can you cruise on a full tank?

    Cruising between 75 and 80 in 6th with my 06 coupe and 3.55's I get between 19 and 21mpg pretty consistent. Real gas as opposed to ethanol "enriched" usually gives 1-2 mpg's better on a long run so good gas runs closer to the 20-21mpg. Watch the gas gauge but watch your mileage which is...

    Exhaust?

    On my '06 GenIII I use M&M headers and the mufflers and tips from the MOPAR Perf Exhaust P4510176 .. Gets rid of the cross overs and cats. Not a whole lot louder than stock. Noticeable power increase the dyno backs up. Car stays cool inside as well. The M&M's have the benefit of not...

    Side Sill Removal

    Yep, been there done that. Now I don't have to mess around, don't need to take anything off or even jack up the car. The slight elongation of the hole is insignificant, doesn't hurt a thing and allows for zero hassle access. While I wouldn't drill a hole in my hood, I have no issue elongating...

    Solid roller cam

    You would need adjustable rocker arms, new push rods and the lifters of course. The power a solid cam produces and and at what RPM's is determined by the profile of the cam and not necessarily specific to the lifter type. They are noisy compared to hydraulic and require frequent adjustments...

    Opinions needed!

    Oh the dealer games and BS just never seem to change or get old. I personally will walk on any dealer that tries that crap with me. If they think I'm so F'N stupid that I'd believe that then I guess I'd buy any bridge huh. If they disrespect you so much they continue to come across with the...

    Side Sill Removal

    You can use a 10mm open end wrench and reach through the side vents to loosen them. You will probably find the front stud actually touches the inner fender liner. Make sure you place a loose lanyard from the wrench to your wrist, you'll probably drop it. You can get the rear one with a 10mm...

    Felt like I blew a tire, but I didn't... any ideas?

    Lets see, CA and hit a bump in the road .. Hmmm, was it one of those 5000 lb sea lions ? Sorry d00d, just couldn't resist.

    Life Expectancy of a Viper???

    Only 2 months you don't want to drive them in FL, luv-bug seasons. But if you don't mind scrubbing those little $%^%^&&* off after every drive and doing a detailing even some under hood, then zero down time here! Viper is built like a tank, drive it a lot, they do better than garage queens...

    optima battery

    I've had mixed luck with optimas. I had a die-hard explode in my Vette. Go with an Interstate or Gould. Get the longest warranty conventional lead-acid battery you can, it will cost you 1/2 the price of an optima and last probably 5-7 years trouble free. Oh BTW get a Battery Tender and use...

    Viper or Z06: Help me decide

    Like 90% of every other Viper owner, I had Vettes. The operative here is HAD. Vettes were a maintenance headache. As for the daily driver opinion, I'd use my Viper for a driver way before my Vettes, it's way, way more reliable, and seriously more fun. I can take the ash tray out of my...
