    No Vipers in San Diego

    Hello, Viper-owner living in San Diego and looking for some locals that meet or go for some rides. Most of the events that I've found is out of town or even state; just looking for some San Diegans for something local. Any info would be much appreciated! Andreas (Blue and white -96)

    Took 10 years but got bit! :( Looking for BBS wheel

    Like i fing rockie, I smashed my front wheel into the curb when getting a little too excited. Wheel is damaged (beyond repair I would think) and I have at least a bent tie rod and maybe some other damaged parts. So, looking for the following wheel. Interested in new or used, lightly damaged, or...

    Vendor Review: Dan Cragin at SPT - Great vendor for extensive Viper mods!

    I have yet to post the results of my last set of engine mods but I wanted to quickly give some well-deserved props to SPT and specifically Dan Cragin! Due to the delays related to RSI’s business issues, my straight-forward business for SPT turned into a 5 months ordeal. Every time there was...

    Viper forced to go to STAR smog program in California

    Great... just as it wasn't hard enough to pass.. Why can't they look at the low production special vehicle that the Viper is, and focus on bigger fish.. Don't get me started on which guns you can (rather can't) buy in CA..

    Next power adder?

    Call Dan Cragin. Larger cam is not always better.. And, it should be closely aligned with other variables, such as the compression ratio, specific use, etc. I think Dan actually wrote in a thread here about that very topic not long ago. Use the search feature for his posts (user name: "Dan...

    Next power adder?

    Good info, thanks. Right now, I just want my car finished and on the road. (Ported heads and manifold, larger valves, T&D rockers, light flywheel, 3.54 diff, gen 4 cats, degreed 708 cam, 10.3:1 compression) Dan Cragin is wrapping up the installation and will have it dyno-tuned (hopefully next...

    Really?? Paxton is certified for CA? Gotta look into that, after I get my car on the road with heads/cam. Thanks.

    Next power adder?

    Thanks, tempting but I would never pass smog/visual inspection here in CA. Something I didn't really think about when I first asked for suggestions...

    Next power adder?

    Paul, Can you get away with this install during smog/visual inspection or do would you have to remove every two years? I mean, this would of course only be used on a sanctioned race track!! Edit: This is in response to your post about NO

    Next power adder?

    In my opinion (but that is after a year-long negative experience), it is definitely worth it. Let's put it this way, if I lived in NJ, knowing what I know now, I would pay the extra grand to have Erik and/or Dan work on my car. Or another way: I would not send my car to NJ even if I saved a...

    Next power adder?

    Drumboy: Great insight, it would be track.. NA is where I will be for a while. Something that I have learned too is that CA smog inspection is fairly harsh.. some don't even get header past the visual.. Steve e: You are wrong! :) You just have to do your research and go to the right place for...

    Next power adder?

    Will, I'm glad you're considering the details around the transaction between me and RSI BS.. I totally agree! Lie 1: You have NOT responded to my emails, txt messages and calls. The vendor you owe and I are still waiting for a response and that immediate payment Lie 2: You have NOT...

    Next power adder?

    You are correct. Gary spent 2 days there I believe, then he posted an update of Viper Alley that he was no longer affiliated with RSI. He didn't bash them or anything, just stated after only 2 days that he was there, worked with RSI, suggested needed changes, but he was no longer doing that...

    Next power adder?

    Is that 620 crank or rwhp? Yeah, can't wait to get my car back on the road. As soon as I have dyno #s, I'll share for comparison! I don't think I will get any monster numbers due to the many issues with the heads (e.g., I didn't get the flow promised and will share other issues later..) I...

    Next power adder?

    Hello again, decided to reply to this thread of mine since it's about adding power, I mentioned that I would go the head and cam route, and... I am now close to getting it all wrapped up and onto the dyno. I'll post a summary soon with the details that I considered when doing the head-work...

    Best Engine Oil for the GTS

    Why not Mobil 1 5W30 when it's #9 on the list of best resistance to pressure-wear?

    Best Engine Oil for the GTS

    Well, I use 0W40 too.. But the point after reading the article is - Why not use 5W30 when it's ranked much higher than, for example, 0W40, and comes with added benefits due to its thinner weight. Simply stating that "Amsoil is way better" or "I have had success with Redline" kind of ignores or...

    Best Engine Oil for the GTS

    Interesting read.. One conclusion is that 5W30 could be a much better choice than the popular 0W40.. It's ranked much higher (#9) and is thinner, which according to the paper provides further benefits that are ties to wear...

    How much better are the 01-02 ABS brakes

    Cheaper to add ABS later than repainting the car to your fav color.. just saying in case you want both. I had the same thoughts; went with the color equipped with monster Brembo front and back. Love it

    Vipers and Haters

    I don't know.. I could care less about some ahole who tried to have an attitude.. I bought the car I wanted.. If I wanted a Corvette, I would have bought one... The same is true for Corvette owners.. they could have dropped the $ on a Viper if they so wished. Point is, respect that people want...
