    '08 Tuning

    Very good points. Besides the Mopar controller there really is no reliable "power adding calibration" for the 08-10 models. The only time where calibration work is needed is when the engine is modifed. Cam changes, superchargers and turbochargers require a new programmable engine management system.

    Viper Car Cover... Which one...?

    California Car Cover sells a cloth cover with a soft felt type lining on the inside. Its a very durable cover and breathes well. I use it on cars that I need to store outside overnight. It is not good for wet weather. I like it because its soft, wears well, washes well and is really easy on the...

    Ideas on possible fuel system upgrade

    The earlier pump has the fuel filler breather hose routed into the top of the module. The later cars had the breather hose routed into the top of fuel tank. One important point to consider that Chris mentioned earlier, the pump has a dual function, one is to fill the pump bucket and the other is...

    Camber adjustment bolts

    This is pretty common, more so on track cars that have many alignments done. You might consider changing to shims like we use on the race cars (Comp Coupe and ACRX). They are sold by Dodge Motorsports and most likely available through the VPA.

    Where to buy huge cam???

    For a Gen 1, these cars work well up to about 550hp, past the brakes and driveline does not work well without modifications. The geometry and weight of the suspension does not lend well to lots of torque, so a hp balance is good. Stock the Gen 1 puts out about 360 to the wheels, 500rwhp is the...

    New AEM Infinity 10 ecu?!

    There are many new systems on the market, as Dan has stated, integration is the biggest factor. Many thing things need to be considered when making the jump to a new engine management system. First off these systems will not pass any emission test and should not be considered for any build that...

    Great Products for your interior

    In regards to your interior, there are two products Mopar makes that work very well. In the past I have found other products are "greasy" or leave a film. Satin Select Interior treatment PN 5174395AA This stuff works great on dashes and anything plastic or Vinyl Leather and Vinyl conditioner...

    Ported Intake Gen 4

    We did quite a bit of testing on the Gen 4 manifolds, we tried numerous things including welding, reshaping the ports and shortening the runner length. We dyno tested all these options and found a point of diminishing returns. There was a point were we gained hp and lost torque. The biggest...

    $209 Full Service Oil Change at the Dealer?

    Expect to pay $120 to $140 for an oil change. You can save some on the oil if you by it on sale, but most dealers are paying 6-7 dollars a quart so the resale it for about 9 dollars a quart. You need to use the factory oil filter as this Viper specific filter has a oil relief valve that is not...

    '08 Tuning

    There currently are no tuning options for the Gen 4 Venom computer. Mopar does offer a performance computer that works well with bolt on modifications and ported cylinder heads. For boosted or highly modified engines, an aftermarket engine management system is needed. Motec, Pectel and Pro EFI...

    Modified horsepower posts

    Speaking of Omni's. I worked for Dodge back in the days when they were cranking out K cars. I remember the when the little GLHS first came out, Dodge had a great Ad that stated "guess what ate the Z28", yep the Omni GLHS. I pumped one up to about 300hp, what a fun ride.

    Greasing suspension parts, do gen3 viper have zerk fittings?

    Yes, the upper and lower control arm ball joints have zerk fittings. Be careful you do not overgrease them or the grease can get on the brakes. Make sure you use grease with the NLGI designation of LB.

    Left rear hub area makes a distinct "clink" under torque application

    This noise is pretty common and most likely will come back. If you replace the splined yoke and bearing it will not happen again. I have never seen a failure because of this, but it is annoying. Things are going well for me, the new service facility will open in October and I will let everyone...

    Who is interested in a Gen 2 adjustable coilover set for less than 1400

    Great option, how do they compare in weight to the stock shocks? Will you you provide a rebuild service? Do you have a shock dyno graph? There is a market for these, have you considered doing the Gen 1 shocks as well?

    Left rear hub area makes a distinct "clink" under torque application

    This sounds like the "axle crack noise" that was a big issue on Gen 1's but also bled over to Gen 2's. The splines in the hub and snub axle are worn and shift making a crack noise only when you go forward or reverse. Changing the rear bearing should get rid of it, but you might want to replace...
