Ok this helps.
A nice setup would be to run an oval pipe to the block off plate that sits on top of the fascia. Cut a hole in the plate just big enough to run the pipe through and have a large air filter just in front of the radiator. It would take a good fabricator to make something like...
For 2k you should get exhaust/drop in air filters and a tune of some sort.
You can get a used paxton kit complete for $4500-5,000. And your looking at a 150hp gain at the wheels.
Buy a used supercharger kit, all those mods may be worth 15 hp and thats only due to the tuner if you have a pro calibrate it. Everything else is either better off as a door stop or may 1-2 hp at most.
If you plan on spending 4k you are very close to a used supercharger setup, and then your...
Yes,
But I would be the guy whose cheating, anyone that is seriously asking for this type of race always has something up his sleeve. Have known street racers that had 2 identical cars, first one is the one that beats you then its swapped out while your going around the block to make sure cops...
Assuming this is a turbo car then its just a matter of changing your charge pipe post intercooler. If its N/A then you will be lucky to get 20hp and loose considerably more torque.
Don't waste your money on anything other than multi-disc clutches. You can get the Spec twin disc which comes with a flywheel and is something like 33lb's lighter than the factory clutch, for 1100-1600 depending on the power levels you are working with.
Maybe for the first 2 min, then the water gets hot and all your doing is pumping hot water around.
Water based coolers are great for short term track use, beyond that they are great at keeping your air charge very high.
Lots of speculation and BS in this thread.
1) Rev limiters are designed to save motors not damage them, hitting a rev limiter is usually very safe especially if its the hard cut like the viper has.
2) You will NOT bend a push rod hitting the rev limiter, unless you do it by down shifting and...
Your looking at the torque curve, but after looking at the other chart I understand whats going on.
The a/f is good its on the right, the left side is the psi and this car is making at least 13 so that explains the hp.
If this is 9 psi then that dyno is about 60-70 hp on the hi side, unless you have very well ported heads and other mods to increase the flow from factory considerably.
703rwhp is roughly 780 crank hp on a viper these things are right around 11-13% drive train loss.
Judging by your torque...
To up the boost on a gen 2 Paxton kit you need the bare minimal following mods.
1) Pulley
2) injectors
3) Harmonic dampener
4) Key way installed on Harmonic damp.
5) Split second box tuned(Paxton computer)
6) OEM computer tuned
7) New belt
8) New air filter setup, the OEM Paxton one is way to...
Your forgetting the most important part when calculating efficiency and thats weight, hp/cc means nothing if the 4.5L motor weighs more than the 8.4L motor.
Go ahead and spend your $$$$ on a 8k RPM viper motor that makes 800hp, cant be all that bad if you have an extra 80k laying around to make it happen.
When your finished I promise you will get a thumbs up every time I blow past you with my bone stock motor with a few turbo's slapped on which...
A viper motor needs to be used like a viper motor. Keep em at their designed RPM and they will thank you by doing other near imposible things for a factory casting like making 1000hp+ with bone stock motors. Or making 2k+ hp on built stock casting motors with turbo's.
Its all about head flow, stock viper heads even when ported perfectly wont be able to achieve that. Now if you get a set of Stryker heads and stuff it could be done with enough $$$.
Far as your Chevy motor comparison goes, there is no factory casting Chevy motor that will do even close to that...
It will most likely cost you more for the motor than the entire car, if thats what your taxes are like. In other words a Nascar motor is much more expensive than a used and possibly even new viper.
You have no idea how expensive Nascar motors are do you. Lets put it this way you could probably build a viper motor and install a twin turbo setup for cheaper.
