If your 8.3 tt can't pull a massaged 5.4 liter GT 0 to 100 or to 200, something is seriously wrong with your Viper.

Why doesn't anyone want to compare a stock 05 GT to a stock 05 Viper. It seems to me the 08 Viper is basically a modded 05 Viper. I've found that the GT responds to Mods better than the Viper, but at twice the price that might be expected.

any time any place you you want to try lets see what your made of.

Okay, I also have a whipple FGT...with the basic stuff. My '06 TT Viper will eat it up and spit it out. Something wrong with your TT Viper. My '08 Viper is also quicker than my FGT was stock...maybe .3-.4 in the 1320. Love the FGT....but come on now. I think Les said it best. All the great times by the FGT in the mag rags were a ringer car. Before you say I have an under performing FGT...I have had 4 of them.

So the FGT will best a Gen 3 Viper by .2-.4 in the quarter. Stock for stock. The FGT is incredibly easy to mod to huge numbers, no doubt. I dyno'd one of my FGt's at over 1000 rwhp...on all stock internals...with a huge nitrous shot.

I don't think the FGT was designed as a quarter mile car. It excelled on road courses in the 60's. The 05/06's do well at top end as well, there governed for 205 MPH but can do 215 MPH.

:omg: What he said times seven! Pics Please

On the road till next weekend, will post some then. I think I have previously posted pics of 2 of the FGT's....and most of my Vipers. FGT colors were 3 yellow...1 red. Do you think I like yellow? lol. Also my fav Viper color......other than my '08 SSGC. Currently have Red, Yellow, SSG, Black, Viper Blue....with a Violet close to being added. I really enjoy the FGT's...but love the Vipers. Nothing more intoxicating than 10 cylinders of n/a power. Other than 10 cylinders with a TT bolted on.

Here comes "*** Wee" Furman again, spewing his Viper hatred, as usual. An '08 ACR Viper will hand a Ford GT it's ass on a plate, on any road course, so take your "superior" nonsense back home where it came from.

Look you Fu**en poser, Fu** off! If you knew how to read you would of seen where I said I believe the Viper is faster. Are you some kind of Troll? You always seem to respond to my posts with something negative!, well let me respond to you if I ever see you in person I am going to take my 6'1" 215 lbs of *** Wee and give you an old fashioned beat down, and I am not talking about your Pep Boys Special Vette either. I guarantee if you were local to me you wouldn't be talking all that trash, but I'm down in your area occasionally to see my buddy Jason Heffner and if I ever run into you I am going to teach you some manners and you can count on that! Your just a keyboard hero, no skills and no balls just a lot of mouth! and a Viper Payment!

Crane you should be careful giving your opinion some a**hole named Alex doesn't like it when you say another type auto might do something a little better than his viper on this viper board. When he's trollng he might repremand you! Just thought I would give you a heads up, because he's a real BRUTE!

I have to agree a TT Viper is just way too much for a Whipple GT, I have run 10.00 at over 145 mph in a Heffner TT Viper with street tires with Jason a couple years ago and that was his prototype with basic tune, the same car with slicks and tuned now goes 8's! The GT really pulls good but the TT Viper is just unreal! I also have both vehicles to compare!

I think your original quote was pretty logical, and don't think you should have been dragged through the mud for it. That said, matching "***-Wee" with all the poison you spewed to counter it, doesn't seem very productive. Don't respond to a **** by being twice the ****.

I own both as well, The GT I drive has the 2.75 Pulley and Tune as well with Accufab exhaust and it is nice added hp and it feels planted a little better than the new Viper, but that will change with the new ACR's mine should be here in the next couple of weeks. So we will see. Both are great Super cars and if you are fortunate to own any of the above consider yourself lucky. The other car which I have taken a liking to is the Gallardo I know not American Made but it also has a nice fun clean power surge. Change exhaust and you feel like you’re in formula 1, with nice subtle Accoutrements. The Lambo definitely has the fit and finish inside.

Warf your right and I agree!, but I don't even know this guy and this Troll follows around any post I respond to and follows with some negative response and some name calling that goes with it, most of the time I just quit responding to the posts because I don't have time to argue with a poser, but I have had enough! I don't respond to any posts I see Alex has responded to because I don't feel like playing this game, I respond to posts that I feel I have an opinion on and I damn sure don't need Alex's approval. So I wanted to make it clear to him I have been in the Viper community much longer than him and I don't bash other people for their opinion and I am not taking it from him either, and I have never started a negative attack on him in any post ever. I simply stated that if I run across him in person I want to explain my position to him personally in a personal way and help him understand that just because a person has an opinon, that doesn't give you the right to call names and such because their may be consequences! If you read my response in no way do I reference Alex in any way shape of form, I comment that I too think a 08 Viper will beat a GT stock. Well Alex felt that left him some opening I guess? to start a personal attack on me, I noticed that Crane said a GT will destroy a Viper and that didn't seem to bother Alex. But Warf you are right, 1 **** is enough and I won't let it get the better of me, and I don't like the negative bantor on the site any more than anyone else here does.

Hey "PeeWee" Furman, lets not forget your bogus claims in the past that a stock Z06 is a full second and 10 mph faster in the 1/4 mile than a 2006 SRT. Your passion for discrediting and criticizing the Viper did not begin in this thread.

Is this supposed to be a threat? LMAO!! 6'1" 215.........lmao. Yes, you said it was faster stock vs. stock but you also cut it down as usual. Who is the keyboard warrior? You are the one threatening violence, having never met me. By the way, hot head, I paid cash for my SRT (no payment). I would bet that my "Pep Boys" vette would eat any of your n/a cars alive. The point is, when you post on this forum you are always criticizing the Viper. That makes you a troll, not I. Now, regain control of your emotions before you pull your one of your sickly sacs out of socket.

Our 05 GT made 539rwhp bone stock.....we added pulley(18lb boost)
Accufab TB,Headers and Borla exhaust along with a tune. The car now makes 704rwhp.....mod dollars spent was ~$5k.

To the original question,stock our GT ran neck & neck with my stock C6 Z06.....so I think the 08 Viper(with equal drivers) would walk it pretty good.

Nice!! 704rwhp! Have similar mods. I have not Dynoed since Heffner exhaust and K&Ns. I wonder if I picked up a couple of horses?

I'm sure you did pick up some HP with the exhaust...the stock piece is pretty restrictive.:2tu:

Hey! just noticed your avatar...that black w/o stripes is sweet.
Ours is red w/o the stripe.

The Ford GT is a great looking car and surely has lots of hop up potential but what makes the Viper so special is that it starts off with more (cubic inches) and can always end up with more, via mods, than any other car. Chrysler is a ballsy company for making such a car and the day they discontinue the Viper is the day they are neutered and consequently, will lose most of us as buyers of their products. Hopefully, they are aware of the impact that this extraordinary car has on their image.

Softuff, I love the look of a nonstripe GT shows the lines so much better. Very exotic looking without the stripes!

And yes I agree I love the fact that Dodge still builds the Viper and makes new models! I love the Viper always have. Long live the Viper with BIG Block V-10 power!:usa:

I had an 06 Viper and am getting an 08 soon. I have 2 FGTs but they are both tuned up to about 750 HP, the FGT always felt like a more refined car and much faster stock (compared to the 06 Snake) , that being said, just based on numbers I would say that stock configurations are really close with the edge goint to the 08 Viper in the 1/4 mile.
