Ted would like everyone to know that Autoquest has picked up the car and will be taking care of whatever problem it might be. He asked me to relay his thanks to all who were concerned and he is on his way home, although sadly without that very clean b/w GTS...I'm sure he will keep all of us...
The guys at Autoquest will do the right thing, they're stand-up guys, I was with Ted this morning checking out the car...unfortunately I had to get to work so I didn't get to spend as much time as I wanted. I just met Ted & his wife this morning so if anyone can help them out they are great...
I'm in Ft Myers and I know Tom & Gavin of Autoquest...bought my wife a Boxster there a few years ago...I have a tight schedule at the moment, but would be happy to help...
Vipr GTS : notice my comment said in my area..FL is the retirement state...and second I would never make a reference about age in regards to driving/owning a viper...WE the collective viper owners are all in a class by ourselves and thats what makes US unique :2tu:
I'm a manager at a Chevy store and we have 1 2005 Z06 allocated, after that they are 2006 models...Of the 25 or 30 C6's we've sold 98% of the buyers we're guys 55+ in age that drive like, well...um, like they're 55. If you add that to the price of entry (I know we're putting a $10k LOA bump...
Re: \'97 GTS on Ebay. Buyer Beware!
There is a B/W for sale here in SW FL that I have just noticed in the last 2-3 days at a very small exotic dealer if anyone is looking...
Just went through the same thing, ended up putting (2)JL 6" subs in the rear & Polks 6.5" in the doors...was a MAJOR improvement all around...Good luck !!
What yr and color snake ? I'm in Ft Myers and hardly ever see another...In fact, you're the first person I've seen post anything from around here...
congrats on the thermostat swap, was thinking of doing the same thing :2tu:
Was at the track last night having some fun runnin my daily driver (05 SSR)
when a friend of a friend who knows I have a GTS challenges me to run him
against his 04 C5. Its an auto all stock except for a 150 shot...he put down a 7.93 last night, not bad. I've got 410 hp/450 tq at the wheels...
Just curious, how much are you looking to spend ?
I've got a 99 blk (no stripes) GTS w/10.7k always garaged queen w/only smooth tubes, filters & Random tech exhaust
These guys are in my back yard, have known Gavin (owner) and Tom for years...bought my wife a Porche a few years ago from them...good guys, you shouldn't have any problems as there cars are usually pretty clean. If you need any help pm me :2tu:
Update
After only 2 pulls (this was a Mustang club dyno night)
it registered 396 hp & 447 tq...
Last time I did 3 pulls and there was 9-13 hp/tq increases
on eash run so this may not be completely accurate...
No a/f measurements but I suspect a rich condition...
Any ideas or suggestions...
A couple of months ago I had my GTS on the dyno with just smooth tubes & filters and the rear muffler delete...403 hp & 443 tq with the a/f way rich.
Now I have a complete Random tech 3" exhaust w/high flow cats (no headers) and
its going back on the dyno tonight...
Any predictions ...
Get the Maxcare, I worked at a Dodge dealer for 3 yrs in
Finance & Insurance...big difference is Addedcare is a
inclusionary service contract (covers only whats listed),
Maxcare is exclusionary (only lists whats NOT covered)...
I would only sell Maxcare to Viper owners because of that
Good luck
Being new to the Viper world means discovering all kinds of interesting aspects to this car...like when I received the smooth tubes & filters from Roe (1 day, very nice) I thought, well, I put filters in everything even if I don't really feel a big difference.......until now when I cracked...
As my user name implies, just purchased 99 GTS in Blk w/9800 miles...
this car makes my previous vettes (4 of em) seem slow...ordered the
smooth tubes & filters from Roe, hope that was a good move :2tu:
any other advice welcomed !! :D
