There was one at Barrett-Jackson. Bad to the bone.
There's a clear panel in the hood right over the super charger, so not too stealthy....

They've been working with Vipers for quite some time (also a V10 engine to begin with). I'm sure with some more time they'll create some higher power versions. They always come out with trim levels (stage 1 x HP, stage 2 y HP, etc.)
