Great work from LMR Like always and Congrats Tony the car looks awesome.
Do you think you'll gain anything if you put the stock 19s back on???
I have a friend with H/C C6 ZO6 lost almost 30rwhp from NITTO INVO
345-30-19 over stock 325-30-19 both runs were on stock Rims same wheather and same tune.
IMO you can get over 20rwhp going to stock rims.
BTW I know you dont care about dyno numbers Tony just thought I share.

We've also tested another C6ZO6 With 360Forged 345-25-20 same size as your Viper car made 529rwhp and next day with stock wheels and tires made 550rwhp if you have some time please try to test this!!!!
Again great numbers for such low boost and great work on the tune LMR I cant wait to see some 800+rwhp.

Paxton is owned by Vortech, same company. No other company makes a supercharger kit for the SRT-10 Viper. The Paxton kit is a proven kit on the Viper, thousands have been installed without any reliability issues. The max recommended rwhp on a stock longblock is 700 rwhp. Beyond that, it is recommended to forge the internals. Would you prefer spending $7K on a Paxton to get 700 rwhp, or $15,000 on a twin-turbo setup to get the same rwhp?
Nice viper, I know it's been said before how uncomfortable vipers are compared to, say corvettes. I'd be interested to know if you think your viper is that far being your C6Z as far as comfort and being livable on long drives/DD-able (not power wise but ride wise)?

Viper isn't a good daily driver or comfort vehicle. It is basically like a racecar that pretends to be a street car. The Z06 is a street car that pretends to be a racecar.
Although, BigBronco (Gray) and I did do the entire Hotrod Power Tour (3,500 miles in one week) in the Viper. I am willing to sacrifice performance and cool factor for comfort sometimes. lol
