Default Finally getting a Roe!

Well, I finally came up with the answer to every wife's question of "Why do you need a supercharger?" I tried all of the answers that made since to me but none seemed to sink in. The answer that finally worked was, "well I guess I don't NEED a supercharger just like I didn't NEED a Viper!". Besides, if I don't get one, I might NEED a more expensive car once the new 500hp Z06 comes out! I saw a weak moment and quickly called Tony Armour. I dropped my car off today at Tony's! Now that Tony is done smoking some of you down at V10 Nationals (Congrats Tony), my car is ready for his expertise! I'll post some pictures after he finishes...

I will be right behind you one of these days. I had to cancel my blower because of other financial commitments I forgot about.

Congrats, it is a lot of bang for the buck! You will love the throttle response on the Roe, theres nothing else that plants you back with just the touch of the throttle.

Fuelman,

Do you still have your stock cast piston? If so, any worries and how long have you had your Roe? I can not wait to drive mine once Tony finishes!

Way To Go With A Roe!

I was out Vipering with mine this morning. Scarey fast at part throttle.

Wouldn't have it any other way.

I like the look of the Roe, and would like to go that way myself. It really looks neat and tidy especially painted.
Is the Roe smog legal for California?
Paxton claim to be the only smog legal.
I have also heard there is a Gen 1 version of the Roe in the pipeline?
Can anyone throw some light on this.

ViperRichRT/10...... Fuelman has the cast pistons in his Creampuff. He has had his Roe S/C installed for a couple of years now.
