    96 RT/10 Question

    The side/rear emblems aren't original (RikRok is correct, should be white). They did make 324 white/blue in 96. Only other colors available were black/silver and red. 96's are unique due to them being gen 1.5. Only vipers other than the GT2 to be painted white/blue, other than the 3 GTS painted...

    Engine backfiring

    Cracked boot/foweled plug. Look at the engine at night/dark, see if you can pick up any stray arcing. Also, you can test for "fire" in each of the wires individually. Paperclip in the boot, have someone crank the car over (with the fuel pump fuse removed). You should get nice clean blue spark...

    I am taking the battery out, few questions.

    Clean/repaint the battery tray, it's probably rusted and corroded. Simple fix. Also, might want to look into buying an optima, cheap insurance. My 96 left me stranded once due to dead battery. Joe Blow can't jump start you with his honda, trust me.

    My viper classified is getting phony replies !!

    Is it in direct reference to the ad? Usually these 1-2 word emails have attachments which are virus related. Or HTML imbedded that you don't see if you don't have it enabled. I get them all the time.

    Fuel system upgrade?

    I don't know if he offers an injector upgrade, his injectors should support ~700hp crank safely. I know that you can run larger pullies, but w/o intercooling you will get detonation. Some have rigged up alky/h20 injection to compensate for lack of IC, and are able to run ~2lbs higher boost...

    Fuel system upgrade?

    Roe ships with 56lb/hr per website. I'm guessing thats rated at 100% dc. Those are 550cc injectors. You may want to step up to 720cc injectors (74lbs/hr roughly) if you decide to up the boost. 900hp V10 should require about 62lbs/hr@ 80% duty cycle. Nice flowing 720cc injectors can do this @...

    GAME: NAME THE YEAR and Generation !!

    Yep, Gen1's T-stat was located at the back of the block near the coils. PITA to get off too :) They had hard lines on both sides of the block to the t-stat housing.

    GAME: NAME THE YEAR and Generation !!

    Gen1 engine. Has duel throttle cables, note the cable bracket on passenger side of the plenum. Also notice the hole on the drivers side valve cover. This connected the valve covers to the airbox in order to vent (which is why gen1 airboxes got so damn oily over time). Gen2s did not vent in this...

    Fuel system upgrade?

    The roe setup came with rails and injectors right? What size injectors are they? Are you doing a DP nitrous setup? What are you goals for the fuel system? Are there any non-stock fuel pumps (inline or other) already on the car?

    Why does my emergency brake light come on at WOT?

    Garolittle: Was it the flow fluid? Also this isn't a pressure activated issue Tom. There is a fluid level sensor in the MBC resevoir from what I remember. A simple little dummy light will illuminate if the fluid level drops beyond a certain point. If the fluid is low, but not below the line...

    Removing Stock Cats

    I never had any problems running strait exhaust. Perhaps that's because I've been around drag strips and muscle cars so long I'm imune hehe.

    Removing Stock Cats

    2.5" inlet dynomax "bullit" mufflers from summit fit right in place of stock cats. Sawszall the cat off just outside the factory weld points, loosen the rear exhaust hanger and slip the new muffler in. It will quiet you down a tad, but louder than with a cat for sure.

    Too Cold To Drive?

    Just make sure you give it plenty of gas on those cold tires. Nothing says fun in the morning like 360's.

    advice on color change please!!!

    Only repaint if you're going custom. If you want OEM color schemes, just sell the car and buy OEM. If you want some crazy deep purple or color-shift paint, then that's when ya go to the spray booth :)

    advice on color change please!!!

    It shouldn't cost a ton to repaint a viper. OEM paint was actually pretty good for a semi-exotic car, and any good shop should be able to produce results of the same quality. One good thing about the viper is that there isn't that much to paint if you think about it. Hood accounts for 30% of...

    Yeah, I always had a fun time jacking up my RT. I have an aluminum low profile jack I use for most of my cars, it fits under the viper sills.

    Revolution 4 Post Lift for storage or service - With Price

    I always wondered... if you have to do suspension/brake work, is there any way to jack the car up prior to lifting? I doubt you can, or would either. Just curious, I need to figure out my lift situation soon.

    Any one used UNICHIP piggyback PCM(ECU)

    Problem with "chips" is that every car is different. You can use base maps, but you still have to fine tune.

    Any one used UNICHIP piggyback PCM(ECU)

    Why not just buy a 200$ Apexi SAFC-II, and a wideband O2? You would be surprised what that little sucker can do.
