    1000 to Burn

    You have a stock Gen 1/2 Dodge Viper. Aunt Gertrude passed away and left you $1000 in her will but insisted it goes towards your passion. What do you buy for the Viper? Or do you put it towards something else?????

    You drive a Viper......but your beer of choice is more along what the Vette crowd would consume. Coors light ? My dog voids her blatter with a higher quality fluid.

    Otherwise your list is ok

    Wish you were local. I'd sell you the HF cats and Borla Cat Back for about half your budget just to help and get them out of my attic. Shipping is just to damn expensive these days though for big boxes...

    Thanks for the offer and I wish you were too. Although I have had pretty good luck keeping my costs down buying from the US using ShipIto dot com. Freight forwarding company. They have a warehouse in California and Oregon.

    Sounds like you intend to put some actual miles on your car. That’s blasphemy in many garage queen circles.

    I bought 3.73 last year but still haven’t put them in. I really need to make this a higher priority



    MartyB, good to know regarding BC coil overs. Those weren’t on my radar

    I take the high road and put the $1000 in Aunt Gertude's coffin so she can buy some internet time up in the sleepy zone and learn about the Viper tax.

    It's October and you're in Canada. The answer is obvious: snow tires!
