Longtubes, Arrow PCM, under drive pulley and Gen 5 intake manifold.

I saw your Gen 5 Viper very sweet car, BUT i prefer the Gen 4 more aggressive body style in my eyes but if I was looking for a red Gen 5 yours would be sold its Rocks! I traded in my 2009 Viper Coupe VOI car for my 2016 C7 Z with auto tranny and realize it was a mistake and I MISS my Viper and the Gen 4 ACR has always been my favorite Viper of all time.

Have you owned a Gen 4 ACR or Gen 4 Coupe?

If yes, let me know bro we need to talk!

No I haven't owned a Gen4, but as far as power mods go, they'll be about the same. I love the American Racing Headers and Corsa combo!

Full exhaust
Tune (Arrow PCM or custom HPTuners)
Underdrive pulley
Gen5 Intake.

600rwhp easy. And if you want to step it up... Heads/cam. Todd @ A&C Performance would be able to get you a sweet kit. But of course anything more than the basic mods for these cars get expensive. Heads/cam $$$$


If you haven't heard of Doug Shelby he makes some trick parts for these cars. And makes some pieces that make the Gen5 intake swap onto Gen4 heads very simple.

All vipers are awesome, and all look aggressive IMO, any 6 hood viper is aggressive looking, I think mine looks pissed off from all angles, either way you can't go wrong with either car.

Make sure you look at both cars side by side, and most important drive a gen V it's still brutal but has the creature comforts of your current Vette.

As far as mods , you would do the exact same as a gen 5.

If you can help please PM and shoot me your best phone contact as I have just about 3 or 4 minutes of questions regarding this bad azz car!

Also, If Tony (Viper TA) or PDC Johnny sees this please help another Gen 4 Viper nut out. Thank you advance.

Purity is right. My Gen 5 has a load of bullshit. Who needs touch screen navigation and a backup camera in a Viper?! Along with traction control, stability control and even a RAIN MODE?!
