You ****** kiddin me? A bolt-on LS1 with a 150shot will murder a stock 06 Viper from any roll and especially from a dig. 1 car? You are an idiot and every post proves it. Both cars weigh exactly the same and the T/A will make 100-150 extra whp and alot more torque, that makes for a kill in my book, not to mention the T/A is more aerodynamic. I predict 5-10 cars in any race.

I think your both smokin crack.......the fbod in question is an LT1...(unless I can't read or don't know a secret). So, 300 RWHP bone stock?..UM NOPE. I say 450 HP/475 TQ for the bird (guessing, OP didn't say). That is on par with the Viper.

The viper has a slight disadvantage with the weight.


I call TA from the dig by a few cars because of the stall and gears. From a roll, I say Viper because of the aero, and gears/stall (pending roll speed).


IBTL.

100-150 rwhp more than a 06 viper?? With just bolt'ons and a 150shot?? No way in hell he will be making 100whp more than a viper!! Espically with a A4. I doubt it is even a 150 wheel shot, probably flywheel netting about 125-130 to the wheels depending on what nitrous kit. I bet the Trans Am puts down 450-470 on a dynojet. Viper will put down close to the same. I think it will be a close race.

Capn Smokey..

I thought the car was an LS1..

If it was an LS1..

stock 300 rwhp
bolt ons 340-350 rwhp
150 shot then 480-500 rwhp and all together 3550 pounds

Again stock 2006 Coupe..430-460 rwhp and 3450 pounds

The reason I gave the Trans am with 480-500 rwhp only a car on a roll race is because the Trans Am is an auto...

A 500 rwhp auto Fbody will have it's hands full with a 450 rwhp Viper on the freeway..

Now that I know the cars an Lt1 it would be lucky to dyno 450 rwhp and get walked HARD by the Viper since it's an auto.....

CAPN Smokey you need to remember the stock SRT10 Vipers hAVE DYNOED UP TO 465 RWHP sae BONE STOCK...Even with H/C and every bolt on in the book it's not easy to get those numbers..And if you can hit 465 PLUS rwhp on a NA 346..Then there's still 500 rwt SAE that the SRT10 Vipers can produce

its funny when you guys say "espically since its an auto" a stalled automatic will bitch smack a M6 from dig race both having same mods. now a stick with prevail from a roll,hovever depending on the type of stall the auto has it wont get beat by much. Dont let the dyno numbers fool you on a A4. anyway i think the bird will win a dig race if it has a large stall, on the highway its pretty much going to get dragged(3-4 cars)

Hope I don't get flamed for this but here it goes. 93 LT1's seemed to have got an edge over the 94-97 LT1's because of the speed density system (check out speeddensity.org for some more info). My stock 93 LT1 would always beat other stock LT1's from other years (m6 or Auto). Plus LT1's are juice ******. They take the spray and ask for more like no other. From a dig I give it to the LT1 but from a roll Viper. (don't really know what the purpose of the first part of the post was except sharing some info)
