My ride needs some love.ALL STOCK for now but No garage queen here I plan on modifying. This is my first VIPER so any advice and guidance will be well appreciated. Winter plans are : Short throw shifter/Belanger Full Exhaust System/engine trans Mounts.

Thanks
William

All good. You can't go wrong with the IPSCO short throw shifter. It comes highly recommended by viper owners. The Belanger exhaust is also a great choice.

I would recommend belanger headers and high flow cats going into a Corsa system. That will eliminate the awful drone. I had a full belanger set up and made this change up after 3 months. Love it now.

The cheapest 10 RWHP you can add will come from K&N air filters and smoothie tubes, just like they did on the Gen 2 ACR.

I'd recommend becoming a Voa member before you do anything

Str8chillin, "smoothie tubes" are smooth air intake tubes that replace the stock tubes that are accordian shapped.

Welcome. Be sure to join. We have a couple members in Charleston area. Be sure to look at the regional forum. Also if you have Facebook, we have a Carolinas VOA group for meetups and discussion. So be sure to join that also.

Beautiful car! Blue cars are a little faster...especially Sapphire ones....red is nice too though.

Join the VOA....especially since it's January.

I'd look into joining the VOA Facebook Group (Free) as simple questions and tech support are answered almost instantly on that platform......although these and the Alley forums have more experience, and verifiable content.

There is a new style of engine mount available. I don't know the brand off/hand but the YouTuber 'Boosted Motorsports" just did a review with them, they look promising.

All of these/our recommendations are researchable...........pick your own poison.

!!!!!!!!!!!Tires!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, Steel or Aluminum Power Steering Pulley, Bracket, and new OEM Power Steering Line!

Smooth Tubes
I recommend Cor$a cat-back....no drone...but expensive!
BC Coil-over shocks if your 20yr old shocks are toast.....cheap, adjustable, and ride better than stock.
Etc.....
