Just finished our 40th Paxton Gen 3 install without any issues.Our highest mileage customer is now at 35k with the install (some at 45k on Gen 2's). As delivered with the stock system this kit is very reliable with the stock engine and no modifications. There has been much discussion about cast pistons in these engines using a supercharger. When properly tuned, we have not seen a problem.
The cast piston is the weak link in these engines when running higher boost.
If you detonate heavily with these pistons they will crack the ring lands. We have run these motors as high as 10psi with methonal injection without an issue. It is all in the tuning. A high boost engine should have forged pistons,
better connecting rods and valve springs. This engine will take 12psi plus.
If you track the car, you need these changes as well as some fuel system modifications, a new balancer and PCM programming.
We have built engines to 1000whp with good results. Our Gen 1-3 Production engine Paxton installs include numerous upgrades and tuning that increase power, driveability and reliability. If you buy or install with us we include these options. We are the biggest Viper Paxton resealer in the world, we offer
competitive pricing, product support and install advice. If you have an issue, we take care of it (we do not refer you to the manufacturer).
