[QUOTE="Sn95Snake, post: 15428962, member: 110774"] Hello Everyone, Well I went to check out a 1997 Viper GTS with a ROE Supercharger on Saturday. During the test drive in mid second gear while flooring it the car backfired and the aftermarket air to fuel ratio gauge was reading at 16+ and would peg at 24 and stop working. So needless to say I am sure the AFR gauge is not working correctly. To be 100% honest I expected this thing to be much faster, it didn't feel much faster then my 04 pullied Cobra does. We put it on a lift and checked it out and the car is very clean underneath, inside, & out besides a couple paint bubbles on the hood (The hood & front bumper have been repainted due to them getting scratched when loaded on to a trailer. I am having the shop take it to RET (Racers Edge Tuning) today to have the car put on a dyno & have the AFR checked out to ensure everything checks out. Mods: ROE 2.8 Supercharger, 1.7 Roller Rockers, Full catted exhaust, water/meth injection, upgraded fuel system. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to look for? Update here is a video of the Viper being pulled out after the Dyno, didn't get a video of the dyno. Well I just had it checked out and put on a dyno, the Supercharger is done. Not putting out any boost and it dynod at 488.44 rwhp & 558rwtq on the first run and 469.93rwhp & 562.96 rwtq on the second run. which explains why is doesn't feel faster then the Cobra. Glad I didn't buy it before getting it checked out. Going to see about getting it for a good deal from the dealer and look into supercharger rebuilds. here is a video of the Viper being pulled out after the Dyno, didn't get a video of the dyno [url]https://youtu.be/2FXH6xTTfm8[/url] [ATTACH=full]696631[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]696632[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]696633[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]696634[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]696635[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]696636[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]696637[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]696638[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]696639[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
