I know it has been talked about alot. I have 2005 Copperhead with 1200 miles. When i shut the drivers door I pushed on the window and heard a snap noise. Now it doesn't line up when i shut the door. I have to roll it down and get in to roll up...sometimes it still lines up but not often. I...
not that I post much but I would guess over half of all vipers are modded with many being a paxton set up so the chances on the street for a vette are slim. Ive already raced one and beat it fairly bad (mine has paxton and some other mods).
the supra is a sweet car if there was a head gasket...
Mine burnt the paint first time around, the second time I made sure they stuck out of the hole about 1/8 inch and that they had room to expand/contract. Repainted it with heat paint and its been fine ever since. I did tack weld the front of the exhaust where it slips on but not the tips...
The paint burned off of mine with in 5 minutes of getting it back from a Woodhouse install. I readjusted them and retack welded them. I then shimmed the mounts with washers so the tip sticks out about an eigth inch. I only tack welded them in two places and they seem to be holding.
Re: Gene, here\'s your Corsa track exhaust sound.
Does the nut on the hanger have to be tight or just tightend enough to touch the rubber isolator? I had mine installed by a reputable dealer that specializes in Vipers (wont say who) and it burnt the paint off the rockers. I readjusted...
thanks cc I will check it out.
GR8 the whine I hear is deffinately from the rearend it doesnt make any noise at idle (just the SC). When I touch the accelerator pedal its gone and let off its there but only when Im going down the road.

* What oil do the guys with paxtons use ? 0w40 Mobile 1 ?
* Ive asked about the rear in my car a few times but one more time and I wont ask again...cruising down the hiway at moderate speed when letting of the accelerator it makes a fairly loud whine. Touch the accelerator and its gone , just...
I should know but I figure it never hurts to ask. To check the coolant level in the air cooler should I just take the cap off and look in or turn the key on and open it and look? One more question for you guys ,Has anyone dynoed their SRT with a paxton install by Woodhouse? If so could you...
Woodhouse installed the paxton on my copperhead and works perfectly. The install was flawless. Bill said if I have any major problems they would handle it but for small things I could go to the dealer.
I would guess a paxton would do it. I had mine over 190mph, I dont know exactly how fast , cause I couldnt take my eyes off the road (neither could my friend).
I have hit the rev limiter in first gear a few times already. The supercharger makes it rev so much quicker that you really have to be paying attention.
Re: why\'d you buy your snake??
I bought mine because growing up I would read the mags and say "it must be nice to be able to own one of them". Well it is and my Copperhead is better looking than any vette I have seen. I had the paxton installed in case I run into a Z06. Besides say the words...
