    My 08 SRTC Impressions after 400 miles...

    Joe......you would be very surprized with the way the car puts the power to the ground. Being an old drag racer from the 60's (yes I'm that old), we had a saying that the engine could "catch up to the gearing". What that meant is that the 3:55's seem to be the true match for the engine rpms...

    My 08 SRTC Impressions after 400 miles...

    Hey Joe.....If you would like, I could drive your 08 a few months and let you know what the differences (likes & dislikes) would be with my 05 S/C'd....3:55's Comm. Edition........well, it was a thought anyway.......on my 05.....I have to agree on the shifter knob height......I rectified that...

    What Would you do 1st????????

    I can tell you from first hand experience that headers make a difference (Gen 3, Comm. Edition) in not only sound quality, but performance. On the dyno, after Belanger headers, and full exhast gained 47 hp. They were a piece of cake to install (on a two post lift with a good friend helping...

    What happens to Vipers without premium fuel

    S/C and 87 or less octane spells DETONATION, which spells engine failure........not my cup of tea........at least 91 is available in AZ!

    Adj. Pedal Switch - Trim Plate

    You have got to be kidding!? I guess you wouldn't kid about something like that. Could you take a pic of the piece and forward it to my email.....maybe it can be repaired with some fiberglass......I've gotten pretty good at it if you want me to just take a look and see if it's possible. How...

    Eliminate Gas Cap to Body Contact During Refueling

    I guess for us OCDer's, we have to have everything right on the car, and the "no touchie on the paint thing' haunts us. My simple solution was to have an old sock under the drivers seat, and when I get gas, I just slip the toe of the sock over the gas cap and let it hang. Costs me NOTHING, and...

    Belanger problems again

    I have had Belangers on both of my Vipers.....Gen 1 and Gen 3. No problems with the Gen 1, but did have an issue with the downstream O2 sensor on the passenger side throwing a CEL. Finally....... discovered that the O2 sensor wiring harness on that side was just touching the back header tube...

    missing a gear while shifting

    Watch that down shifting to the wrong gear! IT happened to my previous Viper on a test drive (after front rotors installed) when the mechanic went hard from 1st to 2nd (Roe S/C'd car!!), and then instead of going into 3rd, went back into 1st. Long story short, back end came around, went out...

    Suggestions on Viper Charger...

    The reason that I open the hood after I drive, is to release the heat of the engine. I just hook up the pig tails and then use a small box, covered with felt, about 6" X 4" X 2" to block open the hood and release the hot air. Works like a charm!

    Golden Collection of Viper Tricks, Traps and Lessons…

    Living in the Phoenix metro area, and having tempatures like today's 111 degrees, I have saved my self a great deal of frustration by "always" using the battery tenderr on the viper after each drive. My previous Viper (94) had the same red top optima battery in the car for 7 years! Yes, 7...

    Some Viper pics from a car show in England today

    Thanks for all the pics. Just had to ask.....what do the European exotic car owners think of the Viper? It has to hurt that they can be out performed in most instances by the cheap "Chrysler" product from America! thanks for getting back with type of information!

    Parts Rack

    JonB has ALWAYS saved me money, and when I needed some valve cover overlays (for my 94), I called JonB and he just sent them in the mail that day. He said send me the money.........I sent the check 3 days later. Now who would do that as a vendor? That was about 5 years ago, and since then the...

    Gear change - Pros and Cons ?

    I have an 05 Comm. Edition with S/C, and 3:55's and I think they are the perfect ratio. Great performance in any gear when you want it, and in 6th gear on the open freeway at 80mph, your turning 1,700 rpm and I have gotten as high as 25mpg. On a recent trip from Phoenix to Flagstaff then to...
