so you think the zr1 is all that eh?

[UncleBeaner]

b the kit is around that ballpark,

far as the topic at hand, the ZR-1 is not a dedicated track car and a lousy comparison. Period.

excuses.......vette owners will always have one

i will definalty give you a report on comfort. we have to pick it up in new jersey so its a 2-3 hour drive home.
the viper stock sounds decent but not the best. the 08 is definatly an improvement over the 03-06 vipers. but any after market exaust really makes the viper scream. the hennessy kit , the 650r, really looks like a good kit and it makes great power.

brian, how much is the procharger kit? i think the paxton kit for the viper is 5k.

2-3 hour ride home? Holy cow. You'll have to stop and fill up once.

Just remember to be careful exiting the car after it's been running. The exhaust ports are HOT!!!

Procharger?

It's around $7K for the Corvette. That includes new injectors.

Installed on a C6, it dynos at 650-660 hp. Installed on a Z06, it's closer to 750-775.  I would NOT go over 6 psi boost on stock heads, rods or pistons.

the viper is a joke, why dont they go ahead and spend some of the money they make over charging for that car and re-design it.  they've been making that car for like 15years on the same chassis with the same motor, and same tranny.  they just make little changes here and there and change a couple body panels and put some new wheels on it.  just my opinion of the car, dont get me wrong the car is f*ckn nasty and i would love to own one but when its compared to a vette i would go with 07 Z06 and use all the extra cash on after market parts, EX. twin turbo, haha. vette lover for life.

you sir
are stupid

I love your come back kid.  When someone says something you don't like all you can pull out is an insult.  Your just a kid with blinders on.  You like the viper and thats fine....I can see why.  But you talk everything else down.  I am a fan of the auto, I love them all in some way.

no no its not that at all. its the fact that he is talkiing about a car that he has no idea about. for instance, saying the engines were all the same...........

[who else but rk]

no such thing as a 07 viper
they added 100 horse and a bunch of other things for 08

ok i knew it was one of those years they did it. no 07 viper

[Flynbyu]

So was it brand new or pre owned?

Nothing wrong with buying a pre-owned one, it will save a buttload that's for sure.
