    ECU connectors

    Any advice on sourcing loom-side ECU connectors (all three) for a 1996 car? There needs to be access to all pins (i.e. not the factory version with some blanked off. Even just a part number would help greatly. Any advice greatly appreciated! :)

    Pulley wheel for 10-12 psi Paxton Gen 1.5

    Does anyone know the best place to source a pulley wheel for a 10-12 psi Paxton Gen 1.5 set-up? Thanks in advance.

    Alternator

    My alternator on my 1996 RT/10 has packed in. Is there any advantage in getting an uprated one (I have a Paxton system running 6-7lbs boost) or should I just go for stock? Thanks in advance.

    AEM 'plug and play' engine management system for Gen 1.5?

    To confirm, it is a 30-1500U EMS.

    AEM 'plug and play' engine management system for Gen 1.5?

    I have been offered a second hand AEM 'plug and play' Engine Management System that is compatible (presumably in terms of ECU loom connectivity) with all 1996 - 2002 Vipers (presumably Gen 2). My question is if this is compatible with my 'Gen 1.5' (i.e., 1996 RT/10) car? I think that one of...

    Standard closed-loop map on 1996 RT/10

    Re: Some help on definitions.. A great and informed read there thanks! Now to work out how to tune my car in closed loop!

    Standard closed-loop map on 1996 RT/10

    Fairly basic question - how is the closed-loop map managed on a 1996 RT/10. I know that later cars have four narrow-band lambdas but how about the 'Gen 1.5'? Thanks in advance.

    Boosted engine oil breather systm sizes

    I was wanting thoughts on what sizes of pipes I should be taking: 1. from the rocker covers to the oil separation/ catch tank, 2. from the oil separation/ catch tank back to the sump? I was thinking -12 for 1. and something smaller (-8?) for 2. (since that will back-feed the system on boost...

    Good OBDII scan tool?

    Thanks for the info. Given my requirements for the tool, I'm wondering if this is a bit of overkill though? Looking on eBay, you're talking at least $600 for one. What is the actual increased functionality of this tool compared to one of, say, about $150 (plugs directly into lap-top)?

    Good OBDII scan tool?

    Yes, I'm getting the feeling that LTFT is a pain in the ass for a tuned car! Does it have any advantage in a modified car when you are modifying the map 'manually'? I have an SCT hand-controller for flashing maps onto the ECU - can I flash on a 'map' that just turns the LTFT off?

    Good OBDII scan tool?

    Thanks for the reply. I'm using a 'piggy-back' tuning tool (Split Second FTC1) and need to know what the amount of adaptation in closed loop (i.e., ST + LT fuel trim). With the intention of minimising that using the fuel mapping capabilities of the FTC1.

    Good OBDII scan tool?

    Can anyone recommend a decent OBDII scan tool that will acquiring engine data for help in closed loop mapping? Specifically ST and LT fuel trim. I have one right now (ODB Link SX) but the software associated with it (OBDWiz) will only appear to show very basic data. Or can I use more advanced...

    1996 RT/10 transmission code/type

    Can anyone give me details on the transmission code/ type that a 1996 RT/10 has? Sorry, I don't have my service manual with me right now and I need get this information back to a tuner asap. Thanks in advance.

    Pics: got my Lemke 3pc Trunk Top!

    In which case, the loss of head room would make it impossible to have a helmet on in the car for me then - bit of a deal-breaker! However, I'm also thinking of going for a proper racing seat with 5 point harness (the inertia lock on my standard seat belt has stopped working anyway) - the right...

    Pics: got my Lemke 3pc Trunk Top!

    Great pics and I've always thought that that is the way the RT/10 SHOULD have looked out of the factory. I'd love to fit one on mine BUT how much head room do you lose without the 'double bubble'? I'm 6'3" and had to get the seat lowering kit for the standard hard top. Gave me an extra couple...

    Another Crank Pulley / Harmonic Balancer Slip Instance

    Sorry to hijack the thread slightly but how important is an uprated harmonic balancer on a boosted (SC) car?

    Anyone have the drag coefficient #'s of 1994 Dodge Viper?

    Is 0.45 with the top on or off though? Edit to say I've now read the first thread properly!

    Those with Paxton superchargers....

    When you say 'heads' I wonder what actual head work you mean. N/A headwork (i.e, before you go down the forced induction route) normally increases the compression - not good for a S/C set-up! I need to lower my compression at some point (slightly raised above standard right now due to previous...

    Paxton kit fuel pressure regulator

    Thanks again. One thing I'm also not sure about - in the Paxton kit, the Split Second FTC-1 is said to control the two auxiliary fuel pumps. But how exactly do they do this? As far as I can tell, the only functionality that the FTC-1 has is to be able to retard timing and reduce fuelling...

    Paxton kit fuel pressure regulator

    Thanks. But it can't be directly related to boost as boost, as far as I'm aware, is not directly monitored on the Paxton kit? Or is this measured from the MAP sensor in the Split Second FTC-1 unit and then fed directly to the fuel pressure regulator/ fuel management unit?

    Paxton kit fuel pressure regulator

    Can anyone advise as to how the rising rate fuel pressure regulator that comes with the Paxton S/C kit works? Obviously not directly linked to boost so does it just work off of RPM? And also how the fuel pressure is regulated as standard on a 1996 RT/10? Thanks in advance.

    Tuning issue - please help!

    The FTC-1 software allows you to map across all cells. It is effectively closed loop mapping as I will have WBL AFR as an input (as well as knock) and can map across all load vs RPM cells. I suppose that you could argue that it is 'static closed loop' through the manual fixing of cell values...

    Tuning issue - please help!

    Can you provide more details as to how I'll have difficulties? The Paxton kit already has a Split Second controller but it's not used to allow mapping. I've bought one that has two signal inputs (I will input and log AFR and knock) and I'll tweak the tune in terms of fuelling and timing at map...

    Tuning issue - please help!

    I have a 1996 RT/10 with a Paxton set-up (with some uprated parts over the kit spec, 50lbs injectors being most relevant). I'm finally in the process of getting the car mapped right now. I'm using a Split Second fuel and timing controller (FTC1) to modify the basic tune on the ECU across map...

    A-pillar gauge install on 1996 RT-10

    Has anyone experience of fitting a gauge mount on the A-pillar of a 1996 RT-10? In a sort of tidy kind of way? I've seen an awful lot of nasty looking A-pillar mounts (on many makes of car)! I'm not sure what the later cars are like but the A-pillar on the 1996 is like tubular steel and...
