Talking I'm Back, sort of ;-)

Well not a Porsche but a high performance car.
Simply missed having some high HP/Torque.

Just picked it up yesterday.
I plan on lowering it, smoked signals, headers, cams, intake, and exhaust.

If anyone knows of a place to get all this work done in Northern California please let me know.

thanks guys!

Congrat Fred. the car is raw & fun. watch out the tail.

Congrats, nice color w the stripes. I sat in an ACR just like yours. The thing is a beast that is raw and simple.

For recommendation on a shop, I'd search for a viper forum for recommendation. Those things are pretty reliable I heard so you may just need a speedshop for mods?

Enjoy it!

Nice ACR. I had one just like it (non ACR). Watch the 1,2 shift under full throttle. It will put the fear of god in you. I did the Mopar/Corsa exhaust and it sounded great. The Mopar part number is P5007274. Enjoy!!

Sweet Viper! I used to see you driving around MP with that M3 earlier this year. Can't wait to see the mods on the Viper.

The ride height looks higher than stock. Plus those rims are not OE. They look like Fikse's.

yeah, people told me the height is higher. Keep in mind the original owner was 60+, so maybe he raised it ;-)

West Coast Viper in the LA area will take care of you. Nice buy, very different from a 996tt, dont hammer it in the rain!
