    Baseline 1/4 Mile Results - 1999 RT/10

    As TOOFAST said, I had the system installed by Finish Line Dodge (www.finishlinedodge.com for directions)in Glenview, IL. I just picked the car up tonight. I really like the sound a lot better than stock, especially when I got on it a bit. Problem is I still have not been able to really get...

    '99 RT/10 1/4 Mile Baseline

    \'99 RT/10 1/4 Mile Baseline I took my Viper to the Route 66 Raceway on Tuesday for Test & Tune night. It was my first time running my Viper in the 1/4. I finally got some time to post my results. The only modifications to my car are S&B filters and smooth tubes. It has 11,000 miles...

    Ceramic Brake Rotors and or pads?

    Porsche has Ceramic rotors as an option on the stock GT2. Also in an old Car and Driver that was doing a shoot out, I noticed that the Lingenfelter Corvette had Ceramic pads. Does anyone make Ceramic rotors and or pads for the Viper? If so, how much do they cost? How much weight do they...

    MY Drag Run this Sunday, not bad for the mods I got and SUMMER HEAT !!

    I am taking my RT/10 to the strip for the first time tomorrow and could use some pointers. I have been to the strip pleanty of times before, but not in the Viper. What RPM do you launch at? Are you easing it out of the hole or dumping the clutch? What RPM are you shifting at? Are you keeping...

    1995 RT/10 Road Coursing

    I don't have enough experience in either car to answer your question directly, however everything that I have heard and read tells me that the GEN II is going to be much better around a track than a GEN I (stock for stock). Also you can buy side pipes and modify a GEN II to have the GEN I look...

    Post Dyno sheets here.

    Take a look at the overall graph not just the peak numbers. It looks to me like there was an across the entire RPM range increase. At 4500 RPM there appears to be almost a 50 HP difference. I am surprised to see such similar numbers too, but it is still deceiving to look at only the peak...

    Track Day at Gingerman

    I was there as well in a 99 RT/10. I was usually in a group with 4 SRT-10s and I can attest that they are way faster around a track than my stock RT/10. Granted that I was new to the track and it was my first time at a track in my Viper (I have been to tracks in other cars), but it was obvious...

    Just curious. What is a good time and range of respectable times for a stock GENII non ACR around the Gingerman track?

    any other wheel makers than the 3 normals?

    millitary people and vipers?

    A used GEN I Viper may be within your reach, but I wouldn't get your hopes up too high. You will be spending almost all of your pay on the car and insurance and storage. You won't see many Vipers at all owned by folks in the military. If you do even see one, it will probably be owned by a...

    All the talk about Cams

    I hear a lot of folks talk about year X cam is better that than year Y cam and so on and so on. I would like to get the record straight. Is the chart on this board correct or not? http://www.viperclub.org/menus/index_ivr.htm If it is correct then everything about all GEN II cams is the same...

    B&B Complete Exhaust

    Hopefully one of the tuners will post a more complete answer, but this is how I see them. I assume that you are trying to compare just the cat back portions of the systems. You can get both systems in 3" stainless steel. They both have some form of a crossover pipe in the back. The Corsa...

    Modified SRT dyno results!

    In a post a while back, someone stated that the new SRT-10 heads, box stock, out flowed even the best ported GEN II cylinder heads. In your experience with this car and development is that true? If so, how hard would it be to adapt SRT-10 heads to a GENII? Do you plan to offer this as a...

    New to Board, have a few questions

    ThinkingViper, Maybe I am just not hard core enough anymore, but I would learn to dislike my Viper very quickly if I had to drive it every day. As a toy, I love it. When I drive it now, every drive is special. The thrill of the performance does not wear off, and the car stays in reasonably...

    Installed Belangers last night. Observations

    Mike, Describe the sound difference between the B&B complete exhaust with their high flow cats vs the Belanger, Random Tech, Corsa system that you just installed. Which system is louder at idle, cruising, WOT? How do the tones compare? You say that the Belanger system is the exact same...

    B&B Complete Exhaust

    I am considering the B&B complete exhaust. 1 3/4" headers 3" cats and cat back, including X pipe rear section (can order the cats prewelded to the cat back from B&B) What kind of power should this make? How loud is it going to be compared to other systems and stock? My experience so...

    Dyno Advice

    I will be attending an Illinois VCA Dyno Day next Saturday and I was hoping to get some advice on how to dyno. It seems to me that there is a large variation in what I see folks post for STOCK dyno numbers. For a stock GEN II car I have seen numbers ranging from about 383 RWHP to about 422...

    VIDEO: DLM S/C+Nitrous Viper on the dyno!

    I don't know what transmission the Supra used. One correction though. The T-56 is made by Tremec not Getrag. See the following site. http://www.tremec.com.mx/menu1b.html BTW I enjoy your posts and admire your car.

    Mothballs

    I have read that mothballs in a closet will cost the foam padding in a helmet to deteriorate, just from the fumes. Not sure how true it is and have never experimented. Will mothball fumes, say from mothballs on a garage floor hurt a Viper's body?
