Default New Weekend Ride

Still keeping the Lexus as the daily driver but I just bought a very low mile 2006 Viper Coupe in black, it only has 1520 miles on the clock and comes with HRE wheels too. I plan to take it to Roe Racing for their tuwin turbo package in the near future, I can't wait to have 1000RWHP on pump gas! Right now the enclosed carrier is on his way to pic up the car for me.

Still love the Lexus though, it's now at DD Tuning, shooting for 900 RWHP in the coming weeks.

Are you having Darin tune your beast? Isn't he suppose to be in Texas for the big event. Anyhow, good to know that your car will be in good hands.. Maybe those "Double D's" on Jess will make your car go just a tad quicker..

Thanks guys.. the Lexus is definetly the faster of the two for now.. When the time is right the Viper motor will be built and the twin turbos will go on, nothing like 1000 RWHP every day on 93 octane in a car that weighs 3300 lbs.

Yes Darin at DD is taking care of everything, when he gets back from Texas we are going to set up the anti-lag, line lock, and tune again. 900 RWHP is the goal, the head hasn't been ported either but I am running 1mm oversized valves.

Congrats! I wasn't surprised to see you got another Viper. But I am surprised at the miles, they are low!

Definitely a good find. Be careful i believe the vipers dont come with traction or stability control so with 1000 hp u got quite a handful. Gratz on the car tho
