At least on this site anyway...I finally had Tators Dodge install mine this fall. I cant beleive how many of us are going this route..It is a awesome piece of hardware. My decision came when I was thinking how much it would cost to buy a car faster or quicker than my normally aspirated Viper...I was thinking at least 150 grand or more for a used exotic, but if I add a blower to my GTS there would be few if any exotics that could touch it, maybe not even a new Lambo or an Enzo which is way over 150 grand anyway. It really was a no brainer for me. I guess the Roe is a really good deal when you think about it...AL...

$7495*12 = $89940 / dozen.

So they are close to 90 / dozen.

:)

But seriously... There are a handful out there, but that is almost like saying that vipers are a dime a dozen. How many are in CT? We have like 80 in GA... but I was surprised to see 21 in one place at the x-mas party.

I think it has to do with where you hang out. Go to the V10 nationals and you'll think that you have the slowest car out there...

The ROE is an awesome deal. I wonder how many are in circulation. I bet Sean can tell us how many have been sold... He's a stand-up classy guy.

The Roe is a great deal for a STREET Viper. Makes power on the low end, looks good on the car, great power for the money if tuned correctly and has some improvements on the way that will make it even better. Trying to use more than 700 RWHP on the street (without some sort of traction control)is a tough task anyway. :usa:

Hey if they are a dime a dozen that is a good thing. It means we Viper owners will be "keeping" up with the Ford GT's , Ferrari 430's and Porshe's like with ease. Actually we ought to be passing them keeping the Viper where it should be number 1!

Thats one of the reasons I went with the supercharger. Too many production cars coming out with higher hp.
I can handle most now with my gen1.

What are the chances of taking a Enzo or a lambo in a race, esp after the water methanol kit goes on?

What are the chances of seeing an Enzo, being driven by someone who will street race and drive it to its potential, and having your wits about you to actually race the Enzo instead of stare at it as it goes by?

As for the Lambo, your car can SMOKE any Lambo ever made. The rest is up to you.

Good luck.

I remember about 4-5 years ago when everyone was SO skeptical about S/C'ers and the nitrous boys did nothing but slam S/C's. Tables have sure changed huh? .

If you want to impress people get bigger brakes and better handling first.If you want to impress the kamaro rustang set buy a little junker and install someone's big block motor.HP was and never will be a Viper issue.What it has always needed was crisper handling and better brakes. GTS BRuce

If my memory is correct, Sean mentioned to me at the V10 Nationals, that 220 of his kits have been produced!

I just had mine installed a few weeks ago by Sean and Dave and I believe they said they had sold around 250.
