    Anyone with a Viper For Sale......

    true.. unfortunately, your upgrades are not worth much when it comes to selling the truck. most folks dont care about them and the one that do would like things done in their own way and you can be sure their way is quite different than your way... the chances of finding somebody that would pay...

    K&N Air filters: hype?

    frams are known to flow actually the same or even a tad better than k&n.. i have a few dyno slips with doubtful results that point to that ofcourse you have to clean and reoil the k&ns and they do become worse with time so my comparisons were done with brand new k&n and fram. i myself would...

    Question for you stereo guys

    there are tables available for sine power vs. wire gauge. if you are running x rms watts, you should be at y wire gauge. do a search on google.com and no, for your power you dont need thicker power lead alex 02 gts few other cars

    Porsche 996 race.... for 5,000 potentially!!!

    Porche 911 turbo

    bad viper- how exactly did you measure the 505 "rwhp"? your model style 911 tt is awd and there are very very few awd dynos.. just curious how you arrived at the 505 hp.. alex 02 gts few other cars

    650Hp to 800Hp = mid 12s ?

    650-800hp=mid 12s only in a supra... at 140+ mph some magazine testers should learn how to launch methinks... alex 02 gts few other cars

    Anyone Else Concerned??

    the stock 03 cobras are dynoing anywhere between 350 to 400 hp at the rear wheels 100% stock. they are low 12 sec cars. opening the exhaust with a good cheap catback and changing the intake + installing a smaller pulley from ford lightning (total $1000) netted 440 rwhp. you draw your...

    Hey MarkusReinhardt a Bike Vrs Car question

    there is no debate. a properly setup high-caliber sports car will lap faster than a properly setup high-caliber bike- everything else equal. take it from somebody who rode liter and above sport bikes for the last 8 years. however, nurburgring is fairly straight so a bike might have a slight...

    Sub {{{{WOOFER}}}} in a GTS. Looking for answers

    although purely amateur, i have very extensive experience with stereo design and installs. so naturally, i was quite disappointed with the factory setup, so i started looking into building a new stereo. although i havent done anything yet, here are my initial thoughts about the subs setup: 1...

    AMSOIL in your Vipers ??

    as long as it is fully synthetic oil and is changed regularly, it makes no difference. the rest is marketing hype. just the voice of experience alex 02 gts few other cars

    1-2 shift - why wheelhopping?

    very informative. in the mean time i experimented with tire pressure and found that going softer actually increases hop while going 35 psi+ reduces it somehow. that is inline with the theory that less spongy rearend = less wheel hop. maybe the bushings are the answer- i will install them and...

    1-2 shift - why wheelhopping?

    hm.. i thought more camber for some reason... how much toe-in should i dial for the street? assuming i would like to keep my rears at least 7500 or so miles... alex 02 gts few other cars

    1-2 shift - why wheelhopping?

    ok, so after some time behind the wheel of my viper i feel fairly comfortable with its oversteer characteristics (very predictable brakeaway and easily controlled once going); however, i have been having one stupid problem i dont seem to be able to get rid of- a severe 1-2 shift wheel hop. i...

    My GTS was delivered today!

    you dont have to duck- i too did have an esprit s4 some time ago and i have yet to find another car that handles and feels like collin chapman's creation.. but thats what lotuses are notorious for - chassis. they had 30 years to perfect it good luck with your new toy alex 02 gts few other cars

    Front plate??

    hm.. interesting. i have my front plate bend into the curve of the windshield and keep it on the passenger side inside in the lower corner (you can pretty much shove at least two corners of the plate into the windshield weatherstrip and fasten it that way.. if you get it right it will not fall...

    The LETHAL 750 has landed!!!

    well, with all the force-fed competition, this n/a package should not cost more than $12-15k. if it does- those folks are pricing themselves out of the competition. however, somehow i have the feeling that it will be more... from what i have seen so far on this board, the viper crowd ought...

    launch RPMs- there is something wrong with the common knowledge here

    i did some searching on the board and i got the impression that most people are launching at 1500-2000 rpms for maximum acceleration out of the hole on street tires.. ??? what i dont undestand is that those rpms are too low. i played for a while with my friend's g-tech and obtained the best...
