    Rotrex supercharger

    My point is the adiabatic efficiency and the size of this type of supercharger. Both Patron and Procharger need intercooling. But I am not an expert. I am wondering if this supercharger has a real advantage compared to the others (Espectially regarding izing and adiabatic parameters ). If I...

    Barrett -Jackson & Vipers

    We only saw one Viper. It went on sale on Friday for $50K. Prices were down by 25% below hardware value on some cars ..... The Challenger sold very well $400K. It was one of the cars that attracted the most attention. The new challenger has a great futur and might even save Chrysler ...

    Presidents Meeting

    It was very interesting ... As you all know Chrysler is working hard to restucture the company so it will be financially viable in the near futur. They know very well that Viper is an important Icon within the Company and its trade mark is closely linked with. So far everything is very positive...

    Viper Owner Invitational # 10

    You are right Rick the track rental and the instructors are a major cost factor. This is why it is better to work with locals who know the local ressources available. I would also think about low speed tracks with wide run over place. An airport is not bad at all. I think in Chicago they have a...

    Viper Owner Invitational # 10

    The question is how to reduce the cost of the VOI. All VOI events cost 2-3 mio to Dodge. It is not easy to justify that money these days. Last year we hold a 3 days event at Calabogie (Open House Days 2007) that cost only $500 per car on a week-end with open bar !!! We had 250 persons and...

    Rotrex supercharger

    The supercharger itself with all the bolts and cooling system turns around $1500 cost. Then add: Air filter, piping, bypass valve, allum support, pulleys, pcm programming­. You keep stock injectors since boost will be around 4-5psi. And you got a reliable engine with 100hp more. This...

    Rotrex supercharger

    There is no problem at all with the sizing. The SC is intented to boost performance by 100hp and keeping the Viper reliable. If you want rocket high HP number you better go with a turbo. The advantage of this kit is its size and efficiency. No need for intercooling when boost is kept at 6psi.

    Reading between the lines....

    Re: More axed rummors for the Viper These rumors are likely normal. Chrysler is loosing a lot of money and they have to find a way to stop this bleeding. The battle is on at Chrysler's head office withing accountants, engineers and sale people.

    Rotrex supercharger

    Has anybody tried to fit a Rotrex supercharger on a Viper ? (Rotrex) It has a very good adiabatic efficiency. Installation could be easy and a kit would turn in the $5000.

    Pulling the trigger on the ROE... which pulley to use on forged 99?

    I have tried both 6.5lb and 8lb. The 8lb requires prime quality fuel, unless you retard the ignition a lot. 8lb is sensitive the fuel quality. For street and autocross use I would recommande 6.5lb. You have plenty of power. The stock michelin tires are just enough to hold the car to the...

    WB sensor placement

    Yes you can place it after the cross-pipe but there is no bung. However the cross-pipe doen't make big exhauste mixing. What modifications do you have and what year is your Viper ? If you get into serious tuning you will definitely need two WBOs.

    WB sensor placement

    Unfortunately in the case of the Viper you have to have two WBOs. The PCM dates back from the stone age and doesn't provide any protection agains pinging. If you miscalculate your AFR, it is a matter of time before you blow up your engine. If you have a NA Viper you can use a single WBO to...

    Strong Recommendation

    FREEDOM is very important .... It is not up to us to judge VCA members. They have the right to say what they want. If what the guy said was wrong the company could have sued him .... until bankruptcy. But I am scared that the issue was with the job done. Unfortunately the customer didn't...

    Those with black cars...

    You can easily scratch any paint. On black paint scrathes are visible from 20 yards. So the challange is to wash the car such a way that you won't scratch the paint. The other challange is to dry it as quickly as you can so the paint will have a mirror finish. My viper used to be very dirty. I...

    Replace fog lights with Cessna landing light's ? Worked on my Harley

    Hahaha ... I never tried the landing lights but I used 130w bulbs and they melted my wires ... In addition all metalic parts will rust very quickly. When a hot 800F metalic part gets some water it rusts right away. My Hella fog lamp lasted 2 years ... I think I will try the landing light mod...

    Im doing the comp coupe cam

    Shifting too early ... ? Sometimes I hit the rev limiter .... Take this : in third gear the GEN2 Vipers over take me like rockets .... There is about 50-80hp missing. I think it is due to some anti pollution setup. I have asked DC to modify my PCM so WOT is trigger at 2.5Volt (70% ). I hope...

    Roll Bar

    The Viper body is already very strong. The rollcages sold as a bolt in kit are just "cosmetic" improvements. If I was you, I would take a local rollcage builder to install something strong protecting againt side and front windshield impacts. For $1500 you can have something really customized and...
