    I also used the Hush Power mufflers, behind stock cats, and am very pleased with the look and sound.

    Help - How hot is too hot?

    That is exactly what my 97GTS does, unless it is one of our "wonderful" 114-116F days, then it goes higher. I have had the computer turn off my A/C compressor, due to water temp. All normal according to manual, and our Viper Tech.

    Why in the heck do Vipers eats batteries so badly?

    I guess that I have been lucky, as I just 1 month ago replaced the original battery with a Sears Platinum. Anytime my car is in the garage, it is on a Battery Tender without the alarm set. A couple of weeks ago I didn't get the passenger door completely shut and it kept the Battery Tender busy...

    Side pipes for GTS

    I also love my side pipes. I went with fairly subtle mufflers and stock cats, so the exhaust note is acceptable to me. I went with the Gen 1 side sills and am pleased with the end product.....Doc

    If you install side exhaust, then you can have TWO black areas on your garage floor.

    Side Sill Anti-Chip Applique (Gen 1)

    I repainted my Gen 1 side sills that I installed on my GTS. I went to my window tinter and he had a bucket full of 3M scraps and he gave me a hand full. I used it only on the leading and trailing edges. I did not use it at the exhaust port like the factory does. To date, it has worked great with...

    Battery Tender Cigarette Lighter users I need feedback

    I go through an open passenger side window, but I don't store my car as we can use them the year around. I just lay an old towel on the door so the cord is not on the paint and it works great.

    Viper Temp Gauge Question

    Boy, I wish mine ONLY went up that high!! The ambient temp right now is 110F. That makes the asphalt about 160F or higher. If you drive your Viper in traffic in this temp., it WILL go much higher than that. In fact I have had my computer turn off my a/c because of the water temp. Oh well, when...

    Octane

    I wish that we could get 93/94 octane here in Az. 91 is the best that we can get. I have a couple of cars that would love it, especially a blown car.

    Just found this video .............

    I wonder if I could get that fella to drive my Viper........NOT!!! He drives like someone else is buying the tires. Maybe he has some out-dated tires and wants to have some fun before he changes them.

    First month of ownership.

    Congrats on your new ride!! As said before, it is good to have another Viper in Az. If you are expecting the temp gauge to show like other cars, you will be disappointed. These cars run hotter, especially in Az. in the summer. Get yourself a factory repair manual and read up on what Dodge...

    Re: Help - new owner can\'t find cruise control button! I agree with X vetter, it is great here the whole weekend. Of course around July/Aug time frame, it gets pretty rough in the "other" way.

    Sill Corrosion Repair

    Jay, I re-used the factory Gen1 insulation, minus the stainless steel piece(the insulation can't go anywhere). If you don't have the gen1 insulation, you can use your Gen2, but will have to open up an area for the exhaust turn-outs. I also had some asbestos cloth(I think the real item) that had...

    Side sill heat... how much is to much???

    mAVPR, Go to illustrated upgrades section of the main menu and look under Corsa installation on GTS. That will show you how to remove your sills and what to be careful of(over tightening the screws). The sills are made of very soft alum., not steel, and are easy to deform with slight pressure. I...
