Lpe542 Viper Gts 1 Of 8 Ever Built 770 Hp. on 2040-cars
San Diego, California, United States
You are bidding on one of
eight known builds by LPE of a Gen II Viper.
This is most likely the last Gen II they built but you would need to confirm
with LPE. It is a Model year 2000 with 7100 miles on it as of this writing. I bought this car in
December 2012 and proceeded to put additional upgrades into it. The first and foremost is a PROEFI 128 system
installed by A&C Performance who is one of the premier Viper tuners in the
world. If you research the Viper
community you will see he his the guy on the west coast. With the PROEFI we added
traction control which makes the car much better in driving. Previously traction was an issue and even in
3rd or 4th gear you would loose the tires going up an off ramp. Now, it’s just solid full acceleration. The car drive great with this tune set up, doesn't get hot, and the air blows cold. But it is loud and it is fast. This is my 5th Viper I have owned. I'm getting to old to keep a car of this magnitude and plan on getting a more current daily driver, perhaps a HellCat which would be alot more tame. With the EFI Tune the car
pulled 674 RWHP Do the math, with drive-train loss that is about 770 crank HP. Here is a video from when
I picked it up from A&C http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a7bR-7rHgyA Additional things
recently added are: New set of Michelin Pilot
tires. Trap door oil system to
the engine oil pan. MGW billet trim pieces
and gas cap (have original pieces still) Short shifter and knob
(have original pieces still) Billet PS bracket Billet steer rack
bushings Rear air diffusers Current upgraded HD
Unitrax half shafts. The engine work at LPE is as
follows: Engine
disassembly & inspection In addition, LPE
installed Penske fully adjustable shocks, RPM Stage VI Transmission, Brembo Big
Brake kit with floating rotors front and rear, new clutch, HD radiator, HRE
18/19 wheel set up. The car passed CA smog
when I bought it but currently has no cats so it won’t anymore therefore buyer is on
his own in that regard. The cats got hot with the dyno pulls and left a small
mark on the side sill. You can see it with the doors open but not so much when
they are closed. Picture attached. In
addition the PROEFI is piggybacked over the OEM computer so that window and
doorlocks work but the check engine light remains on. It can be deleted if needed but never was an
issue for me. If you read though the
forums you will find I am a track junkie. However, this car has not been on the
track. Primarily for two reasons. It is extra clean and I don’t want windshield
and paint chips. If I broke and engine, which I have done before in another
Viper, it would no longer be an LPE car as I’d have to go backwards (stock) on
the engine. This car is clean and it
runs great. The cam in it is huge. Todd spent hours on the tune to make it run
so good. http://www.lingenfelter.com/LPEforumfiles/showthread.php?1869-new-to-me-540-Viper&highlight=viper http://www.lingenfelter.com/engine-packages/dodge-viper-1999-2001

FCA cuts powertrain warranties to 60k miles
Fri, May 29 2015FCA US is cutting back the mileage of its powertrain warranty on some 2016 model year vehicles. Rather than the current five years/100,000 miles of coverage, the new amount is five years/60,000 miles for gasoline-fueled models from Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge and Ram. In March 2015, General Motors made a similar switch to five-years/60,000-miles of coverage for Chevrolet and GMC, and FCA US seems to be citing this as part of the reason for the shift. "Following changes already made by competitors, FCA US is adjusting powertrain warranty coverage for 2016 model year vehicles to be more consistent with industry practices," the automaker said in a portion of its statement. The bumper-to-bumper warranty for these vehicles is unchanged at three years/36,000 miles. According to Automotive News, Fiat's warranty is remaining at four years/50,000 miles. When it changed the mileage limit, GM also halved the number of free service visits for Chevy, GMC, and Buick to two from the previous four. The automaker claimed that the reason for the adjustments to its coverage was that a long warranty was seldom a reason for customers to buy a vehicle.

Stellantis reports record margins, $7B profits despite chip shortage
Tue, Aug 3 2021MILAN — Automaker Stellantis on Tuesday said it achieved faster-than-expected progress on synergies and record margins in its first six months as a combined company, despite suffering 700,000 units in lower production due to interruptions in the semiconductor supply chain. The company — formed from French carmaker Peugeot PSAÂ’s takeover of the Italian-American company Fiat Chrysler — reported net profit of 5.9 billion euros ($7 billion) in the first half of 2021, compared with a loss 813 million euros during the same period a year earlier, which was impacted by the coronavirus restrictions around the globe. Shipments rose 44% to 3.2 million units, while revenues rose 46% to 75 billion euros. “We are very pleased with the speed with which the new team has begun to execute as one company, as Stellantis,Â’Â’ Chief Financial Officer Richard Palmer told reporters. Semiconductor shortages accounted for 200,000 units of production losses in the first quarter and 500,000 in the second quarter. Semiconductors are used more than ever before in new vehicles with electronic features such as Bluetooth connectivity and driver assist, navigation and hybrid electric systems. Stellantis achieved 1.3 billion euros in cost savings in the first half, mostly by sharing investments in new technologies and platforms, which Palmer said was a faster rate than initially forecast. It aims to achieve 80% of the targeted 5 billion in cost savings by 2024. “These synergies allow us to continue to invest in the electrification strategy, which we talk about every day,” Palmer said. Stellantis, which lags competitors in rolling out electric vehicles, plans to launch 21 fully electric or plug-in gas electric hybrid vehicles over the next two years. North American posted record profitability on global sales of Ram trucks and the strong launch of the Jeep Wrangler 4xe, which was the best-selling plug-in gas electric vehicle in the United States in the second quarter. Stellantis was the market leader in South America and second in Europe. The results were presented on a pro-forma basis, taking into account the performance of each of the carmakers as separate entities during 2020.

NHTSA investigating power modules on Chrysler Group SUVs and minivans
Mon, 29 Sep 2014The Center for Auto Safety is officially petitioning the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to begin scrutinizing alleged problems with the totally integrated power module (TIPM) on about 24 Chrysler Group SUVs and minivans. The advocacy group claims that the part's failure can cause affected vehicles to stall or not start at all. NHTSA is still looking into the accusations and deciding whether a full investigation is actually warranted.
The CAS petition claims at least 70 TIPM failures, but according to NHTSA, six of the complaints are for models that don't have the modules. In 34 of the reported cases, the vehicles refused to start, and in 17 of them the engine stalled. There were also two allegations of smoke and one of a fire. However, none of these affected airbag deployment or resulted in a crash.
This petition isn't the first TIPM-related problem for Chrysler Group. A recent report in the New York Times alleged that it found 240 complaints potentially related to the issue on NHTSA's website alone. In September, the automaker also recalled 230,760 examples worldwide (188,723 in the US) of the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango replace the fuel pump relay circuit inside of the TIPM-7 with one external to the unit. The original part could allegedly cause the models to stall without warning. Even earlier, the company also recalled about 80,000 examples of the Jeep Wrangler and Dodge Nitro in 2007 to have the module reprogrammed.
