    > HorsePower Freaks Feramic Clutch is in my car and tested! <

    Although you can use the feramic clutch on all years, it appears the flywheel must be swapped for the 92-95 model years. To simplify the process, we've gone ahead and added the 92-95 kit to our site that will be a direct replacement for the stock clutch, as the 96-02 is for its respective year...

    Thanks for the post guys. We currently have 4 Viper EMS's left in stock if anyone is interested. We also have plug-n-play knock sensor kits for the Viper GTS. Take care, Chris.

    HorsepowerFreaks Feramic Clutch

    Lou... We do not manufacturer the "HorsepowerFreaks" clutches. We leave that up to the experts. We determine which materials to use, clutch disk thicknesses and often test various pressure plates with the clutch to determine optimal performance. We also have them vary the clamp load on...

    HorsepowerFreaks Feramic Clutch

    I am unable to edit my original post. Please disregard Requirement #5 It should really say, "#5) You cannot use a Fidanza flywheel". I have spoken with some Viper owners that have been running with the Fidanza flywheel without issues. The stock clutch disk is less prone to be adversely...

    HorsepowerFreaks Feramic Clutch

    Lou, I thought about this after my original post. I actually prefer people run the stock flywheel with our clutch as the stock flwyheel dissipates heat WAY better and is not prone to warping. I don't let any other cars run lightweight flywheels with our clutch during the preliminary phases as...

    HorsepowerFreaks Feramic Clutch

    Well, fortunately for us, RPS doesn't sell a Feramic clutch. RPS will typically warranty any problems you may have with whatever clutch you tried from them. Of course I don't know what your paticular scenario involved so I don't know if they will do that in your case. I saw your post on the...

    HorsepowerFreaks Feramic Clutch

    I need two testers for our new Viper Feramic Clutch. This clutch is for Vipers that have between 700ft-lbs and 1,100 ft-lbs of torque. The Feramic material is a brand new compound which has a higher melting point and coefficient of friction of any other clutch disk on the market today. The...

    AEM EMS Release Date End of This Month

    One thing Sean didn't mention is that the AEM allows you to build a knock noise table. This allows you to draw a graph that differentiates simple engine noise from actual knock. The table axis are "Knock voltage" vs "RPM". Anytime this knock voltage is exceeded, the AEM will inject extra fuel...

    Viper Video

    Nice Video. I'm always amazed with people doing burnouts just for the hell of it. That was probably the last day on those tires. Chris.

    AEM EMS Release Date End of This Month

    I can see how this assumption could be made. Consider that if you didn't have an AEM and you weren't making optimal power, you would be looking at a black box wondering why. The key to the AEM is not to make a perfectly running car run better. It is to make a poorly car run better, or to take...

    AEM Dyno Results - bone stock 2000 GTS 461ft-lbs.

    Good question Itony1. VPC/GCC or SAFC is a standard setup on a Supra and is VERY reliable because the Supra has awesome knock sensors and the stock computer pulls out timing at any hint of knock and keeps the timing out for quite some time. The stock computer from a BPU setup also loves to run...

    AEM Dyno Results - bone stock 2000 GTS 461ft-lbs.

    Current status on AEM EMS... We were having trouble getting the cars idle motor to park properly with the AEM for a couple weeks causing spurrating idle on startup. This problem has been resolved with some minor tweaks to the program and the car has been running flawlessly ever since. The EMS...

    AEM Dyno Results - bone stock 2000 GTS 461ft-lbs.

    Thanks!!! For those of you that don't really know who we are, Sean and I have been installing and tuning AEM engine management systems since they first came out for the Supra over 2 years ago. We work hand-in-hand with AEM to promote, distribute and support their products and have installed...

    AEM Dyno Results - bone stock 2000 GTS 461ft-lbs.

    I was definitely disappointed when we strapped the Viper down for the first time prior to the AEM install. The car did feel a big sluggish when I bought it from the prior owner and I could audibly hear pre-ignition doing pulls in the upper gears. I haven't confirmed this, but I believe the...

    AEM Dyno Results - bone stock 2000 GTS 461ft-lbs.

    We just finished tuning the AEM on my bone stock 2000 Viper GTS with the AEM and I am very impressed with the results. When many of us think of standalones we think of them running on race cars that never see the street. Cars that often stumble to start and sometimes sputter on the track, with...

    Video of 2000 Viper GTS running on AEM

    I just got a chance to drive my Viper after Sean's AEM tuning work yesterday. All I can say is "unbelievable". I bought the Viper a few weeks ago so that we could have a test car for the AEM, and when I test drove it I didn't like it much. The power band was rough, idle was rough...

    Video of 2000 Viper GTS running on AEM

    Jeff, You could take it to AEM to have it installed and tuned there, or drive it up here to Portland, OR and have us do it. We also have a vehicle shipper that delivers cars to us from all over the US that is fairly inexpensive for a fully enclosed trailer. Our service dept also flies...
