    what are the highest rwph and tq from heads/cam setups???

    APEX's LETHAL 650 package primarily consists of heads, cams, and rockers. There are many other parts included to enable the car to handle the power reliably, but the dyno's I have seen have been in the 550-575rwhp range with cats, etc... You can definitely get more power than this, but you will...

    Fuel Injector limits for Gen I???

    Tristan with the fuel pump in the GEN I's and the power you are putting down....APEX has the solution for you!! We have high flow Viper injectors that will easily handle your power numbers. Just unplug and remove yours and plug APEX's in.....no fuel rails, connectors, etc.. are needed....they...

    Special! APEX custom high-flow fuel injectors!

    These injectors really flow!!! Actually, they are slightly more than 40lbs/hr... and can EASILY handle 700+ rwhp. Because APEX had them custom made to their specfications, each one was tested and spec'd prior to shipping by the manufacturer. I guess that way you can be sure they will be...

    792 rwtq at 3400 rpms!! Further testing of the LETHAL 1000

    Now, I know what you are talking about.... I have stock rear end gear ratio which is plenty fine for the power I am making. The car spins up fast; the aluminum flywheel helps in this department too. Light throttle blips can easily hit high rpms even now... Once I receive the injectors and we...

    792 rwtq at 3400 rpms!! Further testing of the LETHAL 1000

    I can't wait to get everything dialed in too!! Actually, we made those numbers on less than 4 lbs boost! We didn't hit 4 lbs until around 3800 rpms. I did have a chance to drive it already. I don't think it lost much in the low end, off the line, but I wasn't dropping the hammer either. I...

    mph on a viper h/c package ...

    I think your goals/restrictions will play a factor in your outcome... Do you need to pass smog/emissions? Will you be driving your car on the street? A good heads/cam, full exhaust package can bring you safely into the 550-575 rwhp range. Just for reference: My 2001 ACR (stock) dyno'd...

    What is the secret for APEX regarding their quick 0-60 times

    If you are referring to the LETHAL 750 package tested by Car and Driver in the annual Supercar challenge last fall, I was even surprised that were were able to accelerate faster than the $225k 750hp Porsche all-wheel drive turbo. In fact, my car was the fastest production car 0-60mph to finish...

    792 rwtq at 3400 rpms!! Further testing of the LETHAL 1000

    Well, as we wait for injectors, I decided to spend some more time on the dyno today and tune the car in the lower rpms where there is plenty of fuel to play around with. Surprisingly, I was quickly able improve upon the numbers from earlier this week. Here is what I was able to accomplish...

    Anyone using a fuel pump booster???

    APEX played around with these on a few Vipers in the past. It worked OK, but it was very limited in how much fuel would actually be added. In addition, it can overwork your fuel pump, causing it to heat up. It all depends on how much your fuel system is taxed now. -Wayne

    Re: Today\'s update on LETHAL 1000 dyno testing/tuning... John- Thanks for your insight. We have spent a ton of time testing things on my Viper. Many people have shared insight with us throughout the process. Some was very helpful, some was not so helpful. If we listened to all of it, I would...

    Today's update on LETHAL 1000 dyno testing/tuning...

    Re: Today\'s update on LETHAL 1000 dyno testing/tuning... Ben- I am not as familiar with Supras; although I did tweak my 93 Rx-7 TT R-1 edition #4 back in 1993. The Vipers run a MAP type setup, not a MAF like on Mustangs, etc.. I remember APEX recently tuned a MAF Mustang perfectly with 83lb...

    Today's update on LETHAL 1000 dyno testing/tuning...

    Re: Today\'s update on LETHAL 1000 dyno testing/tuning... Ben- Thanks. I don't think they can custom make us Viper style injectors for that kind of flow (to support 1200 hp).... At that size, it may be difficult to trim enough fuel out at idle/cruise without running into issues.' I am hoping...

    Today's update on LETHAL 1000 dyno testing/tuning...

    Today\'s update on LETHAL 1000 dyno testing/tuning... Well, today we strapped my Viper down for some dyno testing/tuning.... Looks like we were running out of injector at around 4000 rpms. Just for fun we tuned the car for fuel and timing up to 3500 rpms. The results looked great. Looks like...

    Motor Only RWHP Numbers

    Very interesting question, but the replies could be misleading... There is 'much to think about' when you are saying all motor RWHP numbers. Are you speaking about peak numbers or average rwhp numbers. Are you talking about pump gas or race gas. Is the car set up for the street (good...

    LETHAL 1000 dyno numbers and update....

    All- Looks like we will have to wait until tomorrow for my dyno numbers.... APEX dyno was completely full on Saturday tuning cars all day, and a couple were held over for today. Their dyno is booked up today for tuning again, so it looks like I will have to wait until tomorrow morning. Until...

    LETHAL 1000 dyno numbers and update....

    Torquemonster- We have used the Aquamist system on cars before. On a car running with high boost, this could make a noticeable difference. We installed an aquamist system on my Viper about a year ago (pretty trick; it was hard to see) just to play around and see if it made a difference. We...

    Viper World: I need your support to prove the Viper is still the best!!

    THANKS!!!! Thank you all for your support! I hope it is enough to make it into the competition. We will be tuning my car tomorrow. I will post the results. This should give me plenty of time to test everything for longevity and reliability. Regards, Wayne

    LETHAL 1000 dyno numbers and update....

    Larry- You are correct. The injectors we use are manufactured from scratch. We can order them for almost any flow we want and they 'pop' in the stock intake without adding external fuel rails. Treynor- I agree, this project will be interesting. With 10.5 compression my car was making closer...

    LETHAL 1000 dyno numbers and update....

    J- Sorry for the confusion... If you can find a stock engine that puts out 725 rwhp with only 2-2.5 lbs of boost, please let me know...... I think the Paxton package could be installed by a knowledgeable person on a completely stock car/engine without too many issues. It is a complete kit and...

    LETHAL 1000 dyno numbers and update....

    J- Definitely not a weekend project. I have a 550 c.i. stroker kit with a room full of high performance parts for the engine. Upgraded cooling system. Upgraded transmission. Upgraded drive-train. Goal was to create a COMPLETELY 'bullet proof' package that was made to handle 1000hp. The...

    LETHAL 1000 dyno numbers and update....

    Hugh- We have our own custom 'Viper style' injectors manufactured per our spec that are a direct replacement. We do not use RC or comparable companies that drill out the injector orofice to increase flow. We want the engine to retain a stock look and use not extra injectors or external fuel...

    LETHAL 1000 dyno numbers and update....

    J Smith- The numbers for motor only were around 650 rwhp and 690 rwtq. Larry- I do have a couple of the dynos, but because my motor needed more air than the supercharger put out, I actually lost power (compared to NA) up to around 4500 rpms. In addition, it was worthless to tune because of...

    LETHAL 1000 dyno numbers and update....

    Thanks B! We will have a much better idea of what my LETHAL 750 + supercharger is capable of with 6 lbs boost tomorrow morning!! Stay tuned... I will post the results in the afternoon. -Wayne

    890 rwhp/840 rwtq ( LETHAL 750 + Heffner SCi )

    All- See my thread below this one....LETHAL 1000 dyno numbers.... With my 550 c.i. motor, I think we may be able to reach our goal of 1000hp (app. 850rwhp) with 6 lbs boost. It will be very close; may have to hit 7lbs., but we will find out for sure on Tues. As you can see in my thread, I was...

    LETHAL 1000 dyno numbers and update....

    OK. I will be the first one to admit that I promised dyno numbers earlier in the week. Since I don't want anyone to think I don't keep my word I will provide you with them now......at least what we achieved so far Approximately 725 rwhp.............with only about 2-2.5 lbs of boost!!!! I...
