    Shifting Help - man, I suck...

    Paolo, doesn't heel and toe also involve a quick double clutch as you blip to bring up the speed of the layshaft and output gear, before you slide the lower gear in?

    New Poser Brake Rotors

    I hope those Hooters, uh, stickers, didn't leave any sticky marks on the car.

    Shifting Help - man, I suck...

    So you had no gas at all, either when the clutch was in, or when you let it out? Yep, that's gonna hurt every time. Probably won't hurt the car too much unless you do it regularly. To drop it back a couple gears and fly, you'll need to step on the clutch, get the engine up to the speed it'll be...

    SVS Stryker TT-Quickest and Fastest Viper in the World [email protected]

    Heh.. stuff all over the place.. who cares. Fact is, the car is HEAVIER than a street car. So if they restored it to street trim, it would go FASTER. "Straws! Straws! I'm clutching, but I can't find you!"

    Design specifications

    Philip, welcome and good luck. Damn, I wish I had thought to recommend torquemonster to you earlier.. where is my brain?! Cudaman, does it work well? You got the new version 2? Which sensor did you go for? I'm looking at one of those, and a Knock Link from New Zealand. I notice Tech Edge say...

    What is the difference in suspension set up here. (Bushing question)

    I think poly squeaks more and gives a harder ride.. the rubber is there to bend for the axial movement, *and* to take a bit of up and down shock I guess.

    Wha do you think about the extra injectors set up on a S/C system

    I've seen the Rebic used on a few Supras. Problem is, the manifolds these days on the Supra are designed to flow air, not air/fuel, so the fuel tends to stick to some walls. Also the rear 2 cylinders got a little less than the front. I have personally heard of 2 Supra engines in Australia with...

    Features and Benefits of the Vortech Blower Vs Paxton ??

    I'd like to know the sound differences between Paxton, Vortech and ATI... I am supercharging another car, and want something with a little bit of belt noise and whirring at idle, to sound sweet at the line :) Once I'm off the line, I don't really want to hear a whistle though.. any other...

    Running Hotter??

    Sylvan, I believe there was a bad batch though that went on cars around 2001?

    Headlight discoloration solved and fixed

    My SC400, and Supra headlights go yellow after a while. Takes them about a year or two. I just run the buffer over them with some car polish, and it takes the yellow off in about 5 minutes each. I had assumed it was something like oily road spray cooking on? They are made of some kind of...

    1992 -1996 RT/10 Supercharger kit....

    Looks like an extra 250rwhp and all of the added parts that go with that... they're apples and oranges.. Sean's power level would be enough for me, at least for quite some time. When he gets an intercooler sorted out, you'd be able to add more too. Thanks Sean, you put Gen 1 Vipers back on my...

    Frustrated with the VCA

    I'm not a VCA member.. heck I'm not even an owner yet. But to me, it sounds like the club is doing a pretty decent job for the money, all things considered. Joe looks pretty easy to talk to, and seems like he is doing a decent job. Only thing wrong is, noone knows what the hell is going on. I...

    CARFAX says....Fleet Vehicle?

    Over here fleet vehicle means a large company owns it as part of its fleet, and gives it to an employee as a company car, for a part of his salary.

    Venom Twin Turbo SRT: 713 rwhp & 757 rw tq

    Right.. so you are proposing the best the SRT can get is -1.7psi, or a whopping 47 inches of water of vacuum at WOT? Don't mistake a stock VE multiplied by the PR as a new VE, and then try and multiply it by the PR again. We are talking *volume*, not mass. To get a volumetric efficiency greater...

    Venom Twin Turbo SRT: 713 rwhp & 757 rw tq

    Treynor is right, you are wrong. PV=nRT helps tell us the density of the air in the manifold. There is no MAGIC associated with bigger turbos flowing more. You are thinking of bigger turbos being more efficient at compressing the air. That is, less heat is added when the air is compressed. The...

    Venom Twin Turbo SRT: 713 rwhp & 757 rw tq

    John Myrick, if you read mine carefully, you will note I am considering the pressure ratio and intercooling to give a "perfect" increase in density ratio. In reality, this wouldn't happen. You are not going to lose THAT much power to a Roe charger either. I would expect in the 30-40hp region...

    Venom Twin Turbo SRT: 713 rwhp & 757 rw tq

    Mmmmm... even assuming 100% intercooling, 1.4 times the number of air molecules is still only 1.4 times... Surely you aren't disputing John?! ;)

    Help! Viper wrecked at dealer. Fiberglass cracked, don't know what to do!

    Re: Help! Viper wrecked, fiberglass cracked, don\'t know what to do! I would say this is VERY good advice. I don't have any experience in the USA, but over here, this is what a lawyer advised me as well. Sounds pretty logical when you think about it. A guy sideswiped my parked car. His...

    Dyno results: DC Performance SRT-10

    Is the SRT ecu still as hard as the Gen2 apparently was to tune? Maybe the next bang for buck will be aftermarket engine management, depending on the results..

    Dyno results: DC Performance SRT-10

    WHOA! The sniffer was DOWNSTREAM of the cats? I would think that would mean less oxygen and fuel in the exhaust! When I wideband a bike I always put the bung within 6 inches of the port - further away definitely yields "leaner" readings. I can't imagine how much of a difference being on the bad...
