That's not "just a Viper"

because Vipers are a pain to work on, parts are stupid expensive, mods are bank breaking. They are TONS more expensive to insure and get about 10-12 MPG

yea, you could build your own for about 10-12k more then the out the door price from the dealer but that would include labor, that would be about another 2500 for that. the difference is though, SLP warranties everything and it's a limited production vehicle so it would hold the value a bit better then a modded by owner upgrade.

I'm loving the White with orange stripes!

The bad thing about the Challenger is the body-roll, super high waistline and the Chrysler 300 interior. The Challenger is also the heaviest of the New Gen Ponies. I like the retro touches but overall it looks top heavy and sloppy.

They are pretty damn sweet looking. I love the Center Exit Exhaust. I almost bought a TBSS which is another sweet ride that does a whole lot and is VERY versatile and pretty darn fast!

Me either but the Dodeg was the ONLY one close to that price point. Besides, I used my SSS to tow my race car...

Reskinned Camaro, but its still BAD freaking butt!

It's built on the same chassis, has the same driveline but has 2 more doors....

Look for a Kenne Bell Blowzilla on anything and you'll change your mind!

I think it's the same, they both use the Zeta chassis.

I'd go with the Kenne-Bell. That pic you posted looks like the TVS1900, the little brother to the 2300. This is what I would go with: http://www.kennebell.net/superchargers/gm/Camaro/Camaro.htm

What Maggie? The TVS or old school?

1.8t is a healthy motor for sure. The Quatro adds a **** ton of weight though. I always wanted a boosted R32 Golf. AWD + Light chassis FTMFW!

but the WTQ is still a joke and so is the TQ steer... Not to mention blowing CV axels like a Baltimore street....Nevermind... lol

But it's still a S-Box civic....

What does this prove? NOTHING. The lightning had a blower and ford largest Triton V8, the SRT-10 had a V10 from the Viper with a 6speed manual GM didn't build the truck to be the fastest, but it surely was the most versatile. Are we also forgetting that ALL of the lightnings were regular cab... Not to mention the SRT10 Was about 55K. Truth be told, mod for mod the SSS was faster then ANY of the other 3. Not to mention, the drivetrain was more dependable. 1. The Viper Trucks blew out t-56 Like a MFR 2. The Lightning ate trannies for breakfast lunch and dinner The Chevy, though more subdued had better fuel economy more payload capacity and you could actually tow something with it... All this while seating 4-5 comfortably.

Ummm.... They didnt come with a Vortech...( the engine is called a Vortec V8). You dont know crap about them. No GM came from the factory with a Vortech super charger. The only blower GM offers from the factory is a MAgnaCharger but that was the smaller 112 Eaton Style blower not a Vortech Centrifugal blower.

Mine was a nice truck. Maggie 122, Gt3 cam, AFR heads... 11.60 @ 121 Stock with removal of TQ management and some other tuning stuff with HPTuners She went 14.2 at 100 MPH. The SS was a real truck though, could tow 5000lbs and you could actually use it as a truck, the other 2....well you just couldn't. So, not every SSS you see is slow.

I had an SSS, nice truck.

FerrariFan is just anti-GM, he's knows pretty much squat about them. Mechanics agree, Chevy's are easier/cheaper to work on. Not to mention, FORD will never match the SBC. It's pretty much the standard for v8 power. The Turbo 350-400 and 4L80 are far more reliable and the GM 12bolt or 8.5 ten bolt is pretty close to the strength of the 9"

^ LOL. i know what you mean. Back in the old days they ( GMC) used to be more of the commercial grade and often had more availble options. Now a days GMC is more of a luxury brand to fill the gap between Chevy and Cadi. The Denali is a sweet ride though!

The beauty of the 3.8SFI was the that, like most turbo cars it responded like crazy to mods. The GNX is soo sought after because of the rarity ( 547 units sold), the benis. were larger turbo/different dash, different wheels, louvers in front fenders, cross bracing in the rear hatch, larger sway bars, fender flares, larger intercooler....

I know a lil something about them..... I used to Work for Bill Anderson in Dundalk.

YOU are missing the point. I said the Mod motors peak TQ numbers are at a higher RPM and therefore lack the low end grunt. I'm not talking about the acceleration or anything else regarding the truck its self. The gearing in the Rear Diff./ Tranny are what gives the Ford it's numbers. You have not proved anything.... My point is/was that the GM ENGINE makes MORE power under the curve ( the rpm range inwhich most vehicles are used at)
