Procharged wins hands down in the packaging dept. I love the "feel" of turboes since owning my old diesel, that kinda spoiled me, or should I say "spooled" me lol...
Mopar to the bone!!!

Mr_P its made that way.That was the 1st thing I noticed when I opened the hood before buying it.I never thought of myself as being ole school but I never liked NOS till I went in with my partners(Grudge Racers)and all 3 of there T/S cars use NOS and now I am a believer in NOS.A friend of mine had a Buck GN Turbo car that would fly,but I thought it was a one of a kind car,so I never was interested in the Super-Charged or Turbo cars.Till I went to buy a Viper and found out he was selling it to buy a Calloway Corvette which was Super-Charged and after seeing the Vette and driving it I had to have it.But now I am a believer in the Super-Charged & Turbo cars! Turbos,Pro-Chargers and Super-Chargers are the future,when Venegence Racing Tuned mine they told me they could get another 200+hp out of mine,but it would take away a little of the street-ability.The engine in my Vette is just as smooth @ 40 mph in 4 gear as my Lincoln Town car is,and the only thing changed from the 9:38 pass @ SGMP park is I raised the rear tires from 18 lbs back up the 27.5 lbs.Its called a Super Car but I call it a Sleeper.You & I and maybe just a few more will be only ones who know what that means.

My Nittos are street drag radials not slicks and I left the line @ 3,000 rpm any more than that and it would blow the tires off.I also granny shifted it,did not want to put the tranny on the track.
PS we have a Viper that will much much faster than 7:80's but it is not a street car. At SGMSP my car was a middle of the pack car running 9:38. Was your 7 Second Viper streetable? Not to Bad Mouth anyones car,but there are a lot of race only cars on here that will not run in the 7's.
PS I went up and looked at your Viper it is nice,mine is more of a street car.
Of course, someone always has a bigger balloon. Unless you're talking about Sal's car, there are no other "much" faster vipers than that one on a drag strip. The car also went 7.80's almost a decade ago. I drove both of them on a weekly basis, putting 5k miles on each a year roughly. Both ran on pump gas, including this run: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AD2Uzq45R2k I drove the car to the track, made the run and drove home. Running 17lbs of boost, could go to 35.
Not sure how yours is more of a street car than my convertible. Other than driveline mods, the car was totally normal. You're running around on radials saying my car, that's on a real invo street tire, isn't as much of a street car lol. You vette guys love to piss on stuff I swear. Heaven forbid people just appreciate the cars posted.
Both cars made around 1500hp

I ask you if it was streetable nothing more nothing less.I was talking only about how fast & streetable the Turbo & Super-Charged cars are. Now if you want to do some Racing for some Big $$$ I do have a real race car!

Sorry to disappoint, my collection is mostly late 50's and early 60's mopars. I enjoy going slow. My family has done enough racing at this point. Now, we just enjoy going slow.
Are you related to Herb McCandless? Him & Ken used to come down to a shop(Mopar) in Norcross GA and use there dyno at night.Woody Mays was in the rear of their shop building Race-Cars and he was the one who built my 1st dragster and we would go up there and watch them dyno the engines.But in order to go up there & watch I had to stay back well out of the way and not allowed to talk or ask any questions unless one of them spoke to me.
Herb is my dad.

We did dyno it, made just under 1600hp on gas non intercooled. Unfortunately an internal water leak prevented us from further pulls.
Kind of curious on your plans with 1600 hp on tap ,what kind of suspension does it have under it? Is this a streetcar/racecar?..........it should be fun......

Car is a stock suspension with caltracs 10.5 tire deal. It has 25.5 cage with pinto style front suspension conversion. Most of the time it will be street driven with occasional trips to the track for local streetcar type races once we get our comp license. Ultimately we would like to run a 7.99 sometime down the road.

"only" 8.95. Wish I ran that. Are you running an F2? Do you do much street driving? I debated about getting rid of my little F1A and upgrading to an F2, but I've heard their gearboxes aren't as durable as the F1 series blowers. I like to drive the piss out of mine so I was just curious.
Yes f2, 408 small block, I've been having problems this year with it. The 8.95 was the third full pass on the set-up. I haven't drove it much on the street.

I can't imagine how hard that duster plows with that much weight up front. Bad ass car! Was finally able to scale the car, wasnt as bad as i thought with 53% on the front.
