    Header bolts

    Thanks for the info, will scrap the allen key idea and just get some stainless bolts. Will be doing a few dyno pulls after this mod, so should have some good before and after numbers, from stock logs with cheap cats, to stock headers with high flow cats. Have already replaced the mufflers with...

    Header bolts

    Hey all, So I got my 2001 stock headers back from ceramic coating today (they look SWEEET :2tu: ) and had some custom made band-clamp flanges made up, picked up a pair of Magnaflow high flow cats, have new exhaust gaskets and am off to my mechanic's sunday to install it all on my 94 RT/10...

    Pics of color matched wheels

    Those blue rims do nothing for the car... When I bought my Viper a few months ago it came with white rims Guess it looks better than the stock color, but I'm keeping an eye out for a set of the polished 98 rims to spice it up a bit... Jay PS: Yeah, I know, I need asphalt...but driveway...

    It's a yellow day in Denver

    Re: It\'s a yellow day in Denver Must be something in the air.....yesterday I saw a grey rt/10 and what I am sure was a Shelby Series 1 :2tu: in seperate incidents throughout the day...I was pulling up to a set of lights (in my minivan :o ) as the Series 1 crossed the interection and...

    How many of you guys make less than $ 50,000.00 a year ?

    Does she have an equally successful sister? :rolleyes: I've never made more that $50K (US) per year, but have wanted a Viper since the day I saw the prototype at the auto show around 1990. I opened up a seperate bank account and had $25/week automatically transferred from my regular...

    Wing or no Wing?

    Think that mopar wing is the way to go...will definately cover the holes, and probably cost the same has having the holes patched and the trunklid repainted...have carriage bolts painted "royal blue" drying right now to fill the holes temporarily (I know, tacky, but effective short term fix :)...

    Wing or no Wing?

    I too think it looks a lot cleaner. Will check into that Autoform wing, I don't have a problem with a smaller, more sleek wing that flows with the car, but the one that was on it was too much. Plus, I'll need something on there to cover the ugly holes and pedistal marks from the old wing...

    Wing or no Wing?

    Well, my suspicions were correct, it doesn't work. I'll pull it off this afternoon and post an "after" pic. Will probably just put some little plastic caps (like on the sills) to cover the holes for now. As for the hardtop, I have one, but rarely use it. The rims are the...

    Wing or no Wing?

    I have been contemplating taking off the aftermarket wing that was on my car when I bought it a few months ago, but having a hard time deciding. Decided to go the public opinion route. I think the previous owner was trying to do the 98 GTSr/GT2 look (too bad he didn't get the rims!), and I...

    Engine Light

    Just recently, the Engine Light has been coming on on my 94 RT/10. Not the Check Engine light, the big light with the picture of the engine. According to my shop manual, this is either excessive temperature or inadequate oil pressure. No codes are being thrown, and my temperature and oil...

    Exhaust Size

    Thanks everyone, you've confirmed my suspicions that 3" would probably be too loud and result in little if any hp increase, will stick with 2.5". Off to see my exhaust guy now for some parts! Jay

    Exhaust Size

    Been thinking about this for the past few days and think I will take the complete exhaust system off, Put the Ceramic Coated Gen II headers on, new flexpipes, put a flange on so I can bolt the stock cat/resonator setup back on in two years to pass emissions, and put straight 2.5" or 3" pipe in...

    Exhaust Size

    Will check into the ceramic coating, would be nice to get rid of the shields! Need the cats up here in Ontario, Canada, they test every two years, so I'll be going with high flow magnaflows. It'll be alot cheaper if I don't have to buy new 3" pipe, 3" mandrel 90's, and mufflers (have to buy...

    Exhaust Size

    Just received the 2001 GTS stock headers to install on my 94 RT/10, and upon inspection noticed that the outlet size is only about 2 1/4". I was planning on installing 3" high flow cats and 3" high flow mufflers, but since my restriction is already at the headers, is there any point? I already...

    Lapping Day

    Well I took the Viper to a Lapping Day yesterday and tossed it around a 2 mile road course for the day, all I can say is WOW! Unbelievable how well these things handle. Even with the OEM Michelin Pilots, it stuck like glue to the track. A few time I was sure I was going to spin out coming into...

    Need opinions on which exhaust I should keep

    Hard to tell from the pictures but from the size looks like a resonator...if you look into it is there any "honeycomb", or can you see straight through? Guess the question is how much $$ do you want to put into sorting out the exhaust right now, if the red car has 3" pipe with a resonator and...

    Need opinions on which exhaust I should keep

    I'd definately swap the 3" onto the black car, with it being supercharged your going to want that higher flow... Jay

    Anyone interested in a 96 Gen2 stock cam

    Anyone know how this cam compares (performance wise) to a stock 94 RT/10 cam? It is worth the effort? Is it a direct drop in (ie: same springs, lifters, cam gear)? Jay

    Diff Gears

    Hey all, Since I rarely get the opportunity to go 160+ mile per hour, I am thinking about sacrificing some of that top end for some seat of the pants pull. After driving my Viper for the past 2 months, still amazed at how looooog the gears are..man, the thing will do well over 100mph in 3rd...

    diff between Gen 1 and late model Gen 2 headers

    Well I found some 01 GTS headers :2tu: and they are on the way, now I need to find the flex pipe portion with the gen2 V-clamp configuration as above. Anyone have? Let me know! Also, since I am upgrading the exhaust to 3" while I am at it, does anyone know what the maximum outside diameter...
