Hey guys,
I'm new to the site, and a new Viper owner. I just picked up a 2002 Red RT-10 and I'm in love w/ the thing. Been wanting one since I was a kid and I finally did it. I didn't want to get an SRT-10... too much and I only like the Startech version.
Anyway enough of that crap.. I'm ready to mod -- getting ready to pick up a Snake Oyl muffler delete. I was hoping I could hear what it sounds like. Anyone have any sound clips I could listen to?
I already ditched the stock speaks. Put in an Alpine 400W amp, a JL 6.5" sub and a pair of Boston Acoustics in the doors. FYI for other guys looking to do this in their RT's...
The Boston's are money!! They sound bad ass. You'll need to do some drillin /images/graemlins/cursin to get them to fit because of the Viper's non-standard hole config in the doors. Also, the stock tweeters are held in there with two screws that you can only get to by pullin the door panel off. You should have seen the look on my GF's face when she looked in the garage to see my 5000 mile new Viper's door panel on the floor /images/graemlins/smiles They come with crossovers, which I used commercial grade velcro to hold to the inner door panel. The power windows clear them with about 3" clearance.
The JL sounds good too, but the magnet is so damn big I couldn't fit it in the standard sub hole. I didn't want to cut the rear trunk or the sub hole (yet) so I reversed the thing and its magnet is sticking out, blowing into the trunk. The woman thinks it looks dumb but I think it looks pretty good, and sounds REAL good.
Anyway I'm excited to be a new Viper owner and look forward to being a member of this cool ass site.
