Damn, I let Steven borrow a maglite at Sealy about 6 years ago and never got it back. With interest, inflation, late fees, overdraft protection, wholelife rider, thermonuclear war insurance, the Viper should just about cover it! LOL jk Wormy!

On a serious note, Ive got a cavalier that needs some new muffler bearings, can I drop it off and 'borrow' the shop loaner? lol

Well I need to update people in this thread. Dynoed the car after making 800+rwhp for 5000 miles on a stock motor (with PLENTY of abuse). Still made 845rwhp in 85-90* weather on Saturday at Boost Logic. It did make 868rwhp in January when it was 40-50* outside. I'm amazed it's held together so far, esp considering the next highest HP stock motor 996TT makes about 150rwhp less than me.

Steven if you read this call me tomorrow or Thursday and we'll hit up Freebirds on I10 and Bunker Hill!

Im not real sure. I drove it home and parked it in the garage. I think vipers are built for little people, dont get me wrong its a cool car and gets 100 times the looks that my vette gets but it is uncomfortable to drive and it this car in particular has very loud exhaust. Wow I guess Im bitching about a loaner car now.
