The 2008 Dodge Viper’s are hitting the streets as we write and the first set of dyno results are in for the 600HP monster. Hennessey put their new Viper on the dyno and it made 546.25 HP and 516.57 pounds of torque at the rear wheels. Using a conservative driveline loss of 13% that puts the new Viper around 615+ HP. After a few exhaust mods and tweaks they were able to bump the power to 574.95 HP and 537.06 pounds of torque. We’re looking forward to seeing some more dyno results and some real world 1/4 mile runs from these new Vipers!
WR caught the 2009 Dodge Viper SRT10 on I-275 in Detroit. although the Viper was launched at Detroit Auto Show, the the engineering team still felt the need to cover the hood in vinyl.
The car seems to be a Frankenstein-like mule, with a 2008 hood but a current-generation front clip.
