Looking for a shop that is able to still tune with the VEC3 systems? Any stateside?? Id rather not make the switch to a SCT if I can as the VEC has been great to me, but with new mods it be nice to make some tuning stuff on the VEC.
Anyone able to point me to a few shops that I can call?
A VEC is easy to tune and that is all I know how to use. I am not an expert, but I have tweak mine without issue. Your location would help us answer you amigo, but there are many folks that know how to tune with it.
I'm in davenport Iowa.. Lol I'm looking at removing and going sct. Just I hate working on this myself nobody around me knows a thing bout these cars, or are scared cause they think oh viper if I break it blah blah...
Yeah been in touch with Torrie. Issue is being in Iowa nobody else needs tunes so flying him here will be expensive as heck! Remote tuning tho, that's a thought! Didn't think bout that really..
Now removing the VEC since I didn't install it, I assume it's unplug it. And track down like 3-4 wires it's spliced into and re-solder the connections. Then install 2 bar map and get on the horn with Torrie?

Am I correct tho on the removal of the VEC? Sorry I don't know, I didn't install it. And something about the methanol kit from roe, I think I can buy the aem controller and it would wor just the same?
I think.... Then I wouldn't need to pull my meth kit, just a few wires and done!
Reach out to Todd at AC Performance. He tunes remotely and might know the VEC. And FWIW, power numbers seem to be much lower with the SCT, lol. I would not trade my VEC for an SCT. I won't settle for less power.
I cam't compare dyno numbers because my SCT tune was done on a different dyno than the VEC. Drivability is excellent, and I was more than happy to get rid of antiquated hardware for OEM level durability and simplicity.
My VEC on my GEN II was great except every once in awhile it shot W/M when I turned the key forward. I reloaded and it went away. Sent the VEC in and then changed to VEC 3, same shit. I want with a used AEM which I still have now. If you VEC runs great, KEEP IT-why change it? I found it easy to work on once I learned how t use the software. Sean has a LOT of detail in the papers IF one reads like getting the base % of fuel correct for the lb injectors.
I don't have an issue with the vec honestly it works great. Issue is I am doing mods to my car and fine tuning is something I don't want to learn myself, and id rather pay a professional for that. As such nobody really messes with the VEC for fine tuning. So I am going to go to the SCT, or a standalone. Most likely a SCT but I really like the idea of a flex fuel 2nd gen.
anyone ever go up and get tuned by Done Rite in Wisconsin? Ed seems very very knowledgeable, and seems to have done his scare of vipers. Anyone have any experience with them?
check your pm . i to live in davenport and have a gen 1 tuned with a vec
