Is the viper fun? Well just a tad 
Nothing like racing a car that's over 1000hp! Here's a roll on video of me vs. Cobra just using my mid tune on 100 octane:

And yes.... per Stephen my turbos are K16 based stage 2 CNCed.

You are talking much more than GT700 that Ebaker mentioned

You will have an absolute killer and like PP says (above) you really want an absolute
montster at this level. I/A motor like the man Stephen himself or
GT800 type motor or just be done with it and give Todd and Cynthia a call.
(ala Marksi, VR Alex, Divexxtreme, etc)

I ran about 30K miles like this. However 600 crank verses wheels is a whole another story. Do not be fooled there is no free lunch. If you are looking for that kind of power a budget of 40K at least will be needed. My car with all the mods on my AWD dyno hits 592 AWHP. That is a doable, but tall order. Then you have a clutch to deal with and so on.
Look at the goals that you are trying to achieve then map out a plan with a tuner that best suits your goals, objectives and can deliver. Guys like my self who drive these every day rain, snow or shine can tell you how each kit responds and what issues may or may not come up during ownership of certain HP levels.

I was under the impression from you and Todd that the gt700 kit does not require engine work, especially if your not going to track the car?

For example: if the car produces 500 WHP x 12.5% = 562 EHP [return to top]

Ok so is a engine rebuild required for a 600 rwhp car?

a 600AWHP - YES

Hm, I may have gone about asking these questions the wrong way. What I probably should have written was: please list the mods necessary to achieve the highest AWHP/TQ w/o breaking into the engine,

Mark,
DV's, turbos (K24 or k16 Hybrids), programming, exhaust including HF cats, headers, intake. That's it.
I guess I could back up and ask...what do you do with the car? How many miles do you drive it? You could consider bigger setups if it sees a few thousand miles a year and that is it.

Thanks Stephen, PM me a typical quote if you can. It's premature for me, but will get me planning.
Also, what kind of HP/TQ/track times (since that's the easiest to gauge by) can I expect with the above assuming full K24's & headers (read that one a while back).
This will be a near-daily driver, seeing 15k a year, so need to stay somewhat reliable, not that I've read otherwise typically.
