Well I just got back from SEMA and as all have seen the Copper Cpe has a bump in HP.This will be a factory installed upgrade, that will be a special order from Dodge and not a dealer installed option.There is a small warranty issue that they are just working out.......... Now the big news is Yes we will have what I was told is well over 600HP by (they wouldn't say exactly) around the 2007 model.This is from a very very good source and as he said "done deal". My guess from my conversation is 625-650H yahoooooooooooooo

Steve,
The bump in power won't be from a Super Charger will it? That would definitely be the first component to be removed for those of the community that want Twin Turbos. Thoughts? Jay K. |

Funny, because other solid rumors have said that there will be no model year 2007 for the Viper. Production of the gen III ends 8/31/06 and CAAP goes on shutdown until 1/2/07 when they will start building 2008 Vipers and 2008 Firepowers. The Gen IV Viper is supposed to have an 8.4L MPI V-10 that will exceed 600HP.

JGK -the bump in power is from a cam and some other mild things.Thats the factory upgrade that will be aval. very soon. As for the new 600hp+ from what I have heard is normally aspirated.The SRT motor right now in its marine form is putting out a very very conservative 625hp.I believe they used Illmore to develop that motor and have used there research and development to make sure 600+ hp will be reliable for the 100,000 plus miles an automobile motor has to deal with.
