Can I build a 1000+ Horsepower engine? Apparently so.

[quote=“turbo ls1 ss,post:41,topic:24902"”]

where they running slicks? ive seen TT vipers launch like a bat outa hell too…but thats because they were setup for the track. on the other hand ive seen several roll vids of 1200 whp tt vipers that cant pull 700whp cobras and the such until a higher mph.

i also seem to remember filming from firehawk853s car when he was on low boost, and the gentleman in the 800-whp srt10 couldnt pull away with 200 more whp, in a car weighing 1000 lbs less, with “better suspension.” of course driving ability is a big factor, and going from stock power to over a 1000whp is a HUGE leap, and a HUGE learning curve. believe me, i know. its not like hes gona jump in there and know how to handle that power right away.

Keep in mind the 20" rims with 14" of rubber touching the road.

3 seconds is achievable on street tires with no suspension tweaking. I have seen on video 1.9 seconds with a viper setup for race.
