I ran the Torco on a supercharged Mustang for a while. The only thing negative a will say is it really ate up spark plugs. They were always orange and corroded looking. That was when I was adding a full quart to a tank of gas. It didn't do it as bad if I ran 1/3 quart per tank.
The Viper will stay in open loop mode for about 3 minutes after starting during which it runs on a rich preprogrammed fuel setting of about 11:1 A/F. After about 3 minutes, it switches over to closed loop mode controlled by the O2 sensors and leans the engine out towards the 14.7 A/F range...
Do you guys notice that your Viper accelerates rough the first few minutes after start up even if you take it easy? Mine does unless I let it idle for 2-3 minutes before pulling out.
One of the first things to know about your Viper is not to let anyone else drive it if you don't have to. (Like carwash attendants, valets and friends)
As V10Speedluvr said take it easy on the gas when you're turning and learn where the pedals are because they are pretty close together. Very...
Re: Why didn\'t this car get more bids?
You guys are good. I wouldn't have noticed those things except for the stripes. I guess that comes with having been around Vipers for a while. That's why I asked.
What aftermarket water pumps have you guys installed? There's obviously a big difference in prices. What do you need to consider when choosing one? I need to replace mine soon.
Yeah, I put one on my teenage son's truck that told me everywhere he went, how long he stayed, how fast he drove on the way there and how long I should ground him for when he got home.

Seems like a nice clean car for the price.
I bought some custom made wheel centercaps from them. Very good quality. The guys are friendly, had quick turn around time and were very easy to get ahold of by e-mail and phone.
I have had two 97 GTS Vipers. One had the factory paint and the other has been repainted by a custom paint shop. The custom paint is smooth and glassy looking while the factory paint had some orange peel and some fiberglass veins in it. (Not terrible but noticeable)
I might have given Macedo the benefit of the doubt not knowing much about his side of the story but when he came on here and basically threatened someone about "not taking him on" he lost all credibility.
I haven't had my car long enough to know if I could ever take it for granted but this story relates to how other people see Vipers. I bought my Viper from a small luxury car dealership here in Arizona called Autohaus. The owner is from Germany and has been around cars his whole life. He had...
I know who you are talking about. I used to run my Mustang out there alot. I think I'll be able to make it. I might make a couple of passes. How will I find you guys if you're not by your cars?
