    Viper Supercharger, Production Update......

    Thanks for the update. A lot of people don't realize that there is a difference between making a s/c or turbo for a car and having it work versus actually putting it into production as consistant quality kit for everyone. A lot of time is spent developing the product and perfecting it, but just...

    Do you wonder if the Kuhmos Tires WORK?

    Just ordered my set today from Jon B. can't wait to try them. Utahviper, did you put on the 3m plastic protection to save the paint from rocks flying off the tires. I.m going to try an auto x with them. An Ls1 keeps telling me how bad vipers are on auto-x. We'll see.

    Roadster V. Coupe (friendly family discussion)

    When the vipers first came out I thought they were kinda neat looking with outstanding performance, But I didn't like the looks enough to justify the cost. When the GTS came out I fell in love with the looks and knew if I got another hi perf car and had the money, The GTS would be it. On summer...

    0-60 IS 4.1 SECONDS WITH A 3:07 REAR END... WHAT IS THE 0-60 TIME WITH 3:55 GEARS?

    I took a couple of buddies on a ride with the 3.54's and they both said it seemed like it pulled harder than when they rode with me with the 3.07's. See my sig, I also think that it helps minimize the dreaded drone on the freeway because engine is turning a higher rpm. If i slow down to 1200 rpm...

    What are the best 17" and 18" tires available for strip and street

    Re: What are the best 17\" and 18\" tires available for strip and street Lee, are you running Kuhmos on all 4 corners? What sizes? Also where did you get the 3m plastic tape? It seems on previous posts that I've seen that it is very expensive. Does it do a really good protection job or do...

    It seems the general feeling is that supercharger plus nitrous equals 800hp equals blown motor. Just curious as to why people think that. Don't the DLM cars have 800hp and stock internals? Not flaming, Just curious because I am thinking the same path as slitherin.

    Now Taking Orders For The Viper Supercharger System...

    I did some research tonight in comparing centrifical (the $3,100 type) versus the screw type Sean is using. Some of it went over my head, but from what I gathered the centrifical has more power potential in the end if all other factors such as engine integrety, fuel, etc is taken care of. It is...
