    Normally Aspirated power upgrade on a Gen 2 (96)

    Removed the inlet manifold this afternoon - no issues. :2tu: A pair of long nose pliers were useful for removing the 20 securing bolts tucked down beneath the inlet casting. The injector wires were cable tied to the inlet manifold. The only way I could get to these was to careful...

    Normally Aspirated power upgrade on a Gen 2 (96)

    I'm no good at "multiple quote" so you'll have to suffer as follows. Viper Grenade:- “Did you mean to ask what is the flow rate difference between Gen2 and Gen3 Stage 3 race ported Heads?” I think he did - I’ve no idea what exact flow figures are involved but I’m sure someone out their...

    How many of you track your Vipers?

    IOM on four wheels - excellent! I've only ever done it on two wheels, many years ago. And Mad Sunday - you haven't lived until you've done it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjWt0PFbPg4

    Normally Aspirated power upgrade on a Gen 2 (96)

    Thanks Mike, Yeh, I know I've got some welding to do for the P/S pulley mount - it's on the list of things to do. :2tu: But the rockers..... I thought stock Gen 3 rockers were 1.7?

    2000 GTS transmission problem

    I'm switching to Syntorque this winter because when I'm on the track my transmission runs at too higher temperatures for the stock mix.

    How many of you track your Vipers?

    Yep - track mine. Would be rude not too. Here's one I did last month at the Ring. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGLKMgz2R2g And another at Siverstone. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQtTdbkw3GA

    Oil catch tank

    Without getting into which catch tank is the best - oh what the hell, I have the same one as ViperTony - I checked mine today and drained just over 1/2 pint of oil. :omg: I wasn't really expecting quite that much but I guess after a season of spirited driving - two trackdays and a weekend at...

    Normally Aspirated power upgrade on a Gen 2 (96)

    Thanks all. And thanks Mark - appreciate the offer of support. Not much progress this week – only managed a few minutes in the garage - jacked her up into the usual wintertime position. Tested new SCT programmer. :2tu: And removed some other bits and bobs. Still a long way to go before...

    Normally Aspirated power upgrade on a Gen 2 (96)

    Thanks PC - I can assure you I did consider a cam upgrade but the decision to not upgrade was based on several factors namely extra cost and a lot of extra work. Also I’m hoping I can get the power increase I'm looking for without changingout the stock cam.

    Normally Aspirated power upgrade on a Gen 2 (96) Heads and Headers Replacement “At last Winter’s here!” Well, almost here. Most people aren’t general too pleased to see winter arrive but this year “I am” because at last I can begin my long awaited winter project. I started planning this over...

    fuel filter

    If nobody else can help with an image, I can look at taking you some photos during the winter months when the car'll be up on axle stands. But if you're after photos of the inlet port on the filter when fitted, I'm gonna struggle - I could only just touch it let alone photograph it!

    Vipers looking for revenge at The Ring Today!!!

    Hi Dale, Welcome to my world - hope you enjoy our website. We should have tried harder to hookup when I visited the Ring end August - had a fabulous time. Bump into Michael of Mintgen in the padocks on the Sunday afternoon - wasn't racing Vipers that day though. Also saw the Lexus steaming...

    Almost wrecked my GTS this weekend. Quite a scare...

    Glad you and Mrs E tar are safe and nobody was hurt. Thanks for sharing - respect your humility, first class. :2tu: It's stories like this that make a difference to our community - they certainly help focus my mind.

    Your experience at Nurburgring.

    "Plan your trip a little early and come say hello - you'll see us at the Ring on 26, 27, 28 & 29 August." 5 or 6 Vipers from the UK celebrating plus the German's who usually number around another 12. Many other car enthusiasts out during that weekend too - it's a good meet and includes...

    Upper Radiator Hose Bleeder Kit

    I think you've hit the nail on the head Tony. It's the silicone hose bleeder that's discontinued, replaced with the one I list above.

    Rear main seal???

    Yeh, I agree - I think he's talking rear crankshaft oil seal too. I did this job a few years ago on my Gen II - check-out Illustrated Upgrades. http://forums.viperclub.org/threads/621507-Rear-Crankshaft-Oil-Seal-Replacement-(including-pilot-bearing)-on-a-96-GTS Think it includes sealing the...

    Water leaking into the rear hatch area

    Water leaking into the boot/trunk is probably caused by the rubber weather seal lifting away from the bodywork. The seal needs re-fitting to plug the gap. What's happened is the seal has shrunk (contracted) over the years and lifted away from the bodywork next to the drain holes, ironicaly...

    performance mods for a 2002 gts.

    I agree, the 3.54 gear is a definite first class improvement. But I don't see any mention of changing the diff? It's the next weakest link, depending on how you use your horse-power I suppose. I fitted a 3.54 gear with an OSG diff last winter and the difference is remarkable. :thumbup:
