Improving exhaust sound
Discussion
I have been reading on the VCA site a topic about improving the sound of the exhaust on an RT10 and wondered if anyone here had any experience of doing this. The various suggestions also reduced the heat build up under the sills which would be useful as mine get extremly hot. On another subject I took the Viper down to LeMans at the weekend and spotted the only other one, a blue and white SRT but never got to meet the owner. Just wondered if it was anyone here.
Sean roes side exit kit is a great upgrade three or four members here have now had this done... Also great value for money.....

We were in Le Mans also! A steel-gray and a red RT/10...German plates (rear only).
We saw a GEN-I (red) RT/10 with also no front license plate and in the rear "Dodge Palmer, Florida" plate - funny!
He was parked at P6 and had a hardtop on.
And, we saw two other French GTS - a blue-white and a black one.
Since it was so busy we could never talk to one of the owners there.

Yep,
Thats my exhaust system, expertly fitted by VIPER.
I would like to hear my exhaust as well, only ever hear it from inside the car!!
It is certainly louder, with a significant performance boost. It should also have made the car exhaust a little cooler, I will put that to the test during the winter when I will fit fibreglass cills supplied by Colin and hopefully get rid of the cill corrosion problem that haunts all Gen 1 RT10's, or the new cills will melt.........?
What I absolutely love is the way that the exhaust spits back at 1500 rpm when you are slowing down. That noise, even from inside the cabin, is just wonderful.
You can wait and hear it at some point or just buy it. You brought the same hardtop as I have from Bif, based on our conversation, I think you are very happy with it. Trust me, you will also love the Roe exhaust.

Hi Leatherman
It was my Viper in Maison Blanche. Its one of the old silverstone vipers and I still use it fairly regularly for trackdays which is why it looks a bit "lived in". I've been twice to the Le Mans classic and think its a great event. Would be nice if there was a formal viper club prescence as this may then enable us to drive our cars around the whole circuit. I may look into this for two years time. Would be a great opportunity.
(I think my car was the most photographed in the campsite until yours arrived!!)

I only took the car to the track on the Sunday as had a problem with it on the way down. Turned out to be corrosion on the battery terminal combined with a bad earth. Of course then had to reset the alarm system so I learnt a bit more about the car. Great idea for the next one and you can definitely count me in.

Where are you getting the fibreglass sills from ? I could do with a couple of those for my GTS, just to get rid of the bubbling paint work problem around the bolt holes.It is certainly louder, with a significant performance boost.

I replaced the entire exhaust system, using Belanger headers, race cats, and 3" stainless all the way back. Made a great improvement on sound and feel, but also doesn't heat up the sills nearly as much.
