I did, it sucks. The search capabilities are great if you are looking for 1 specific thing that doesn't have a million spam topics in the way of it. Obviously searching TT is going to net a bunch of topics and the forum search engine groups all positive matches by date and not by usefulness etc in a manor that google would.
Here is the info I've found so far:
UGR = The bomb, 1000+hp on pump gas (cost, high but reasonable for what you get/unknown unless to talk to Kevin)
That place in Houston, not so awesome on service (cost TOO MUCH)
SVS makes decent stuff
UGR D1SC kit a great start
ROE SC a great way to start
Viper > vette for HP/TQ in the long run, crappy outdated interior
96-99 GTS < C6 Z06 stock for stock
96-99 GTS can handle 700+ hp in TT setup on stock block due to it's forged internals and Z06 not so much
ACR's have some +'s and some -'s
They handle a pretty large shot of of nitrous
Costly to build
10-30K for a TT system at a min
2001+ have Antilock brakes
catwood has an awesome 2000 I would consider buying if I wasn't worried about getting shit canned myself (stupid failed economy)
Many individual builds scattered throughout as each poster posts them and as each new update is added
Many people trade up from a Z06 to a viper
Many supra owners trade up to a viper
The forum is often abused by members of other sites looking for info or people trying to start crap
Any n00b takes crap which is fine as long as we can eventually get the info we need
Members here hate the middle east because the cost of fuel
A few awesome video's of races and some articles about wrecks
Threads about how-to etc which is very useful and the search works great for this
This place is a great resource when finding out the history of a particular car and most members are willing to help in that case
Drag records here:
*Can't post URL until 5th post*
TT Search with 300 results:
*Can't post URL until 5th post*
"ONESICKZ06" is as annoying as shit but has a faster car then my 2006 Nissan Titan and 1998 Honda Civic Daily Driver. Still not as fast as most of the vipers on this forum.
Other stuff
That said, Mod's, apparently the members don't seem to like this idea so please kill the thread. I figured it would have just been nice to group a bunch of the information already available into one thread making the search function more efficient by removing duplicate information and by making it a sticky removing all the new dumb questions from n00bs like myself because the info is so easy to find.
Was a long time lurker and figured I would get hammered but worth a try. Sometimes I wish the members weren't so hostile here for people wanting to enter the sport and looking for a good place to start. The Viper is awesome so why not let anybody interested enjoy it. Enough said.
*Lastly, there is no replacement for displacement when it comes to power*
Sticky threads for NA, Turbo, SC, Gas?
