    Hello Dave,

    What year is your Viper? I have a couple local referrals that know Vipers well.

    Know them very well, but they are mostly a supra shop. I dyno my car there though.

    Thanks. Three experienced shops around Houston that install superchargers. They are all about the same in price. $14 to$15 grand. I'll put it on my list. Going to be hard to justify that amount of $$$ for a max of 160 HP maybe 180 with a cam.

    For that sort of money , I would go built motor ( NA). You could get a nice Heads and Cam set up from GG and get those numbers.

    If Roe gets his blowers producing again, that would be the direction to go.

    Called and talked to Sean, He said if he has enough interest in them again, he would go ahead and make some more. I put my name on his list. If anyone is interested, give Roe a call and add your name to the list. Only way its going to happen.

    dave installation for a Paxton should be no more than $4000, are you referring to buying and installing the supercharger? , because I have a brand new polished tuner kit still wrapped in the box for $5500, you woule have to use the pulleys for the 2000-2002 kit, for lower boost, the kit I have is for the forged internal gen 2's

    I just talked to Sean earlier in the week and he told me the same thing. I don't think they will ever be produced again.

    Roe is one of the few Viper builders that has enough money I guess....

    I don't think that is it. The amount of money needed to get a project like this started is enormous. If he has to commit to 50 systems and put down half up front, you're talking about $200K. I think some people would pony up $5000 and be willing to wait for 6 months, but not enough to get the project going.

    I personally would love to see another, bigger system(like a 3.6 setup), but I don't see that happening. I would buy one and be willing to wait, but who else would? If he does make up a bigger one, I plan to buy a Gen 3 to put it on.
