Check these guys out, pump gas and lots of power. (yes they use twin turbos). What's really nice about the turbos is that you can have a boost controller and most of the time run at lower boost levels to save on fuel and when you want to really haul butt crank up the boost.

I've heard some real horror stories about Heffner's. Don't think I'd give them $50K to work on my Viper and ever expect them to get it done. 
Once we had Ronald Reagan, Bob Hope & Johnny Cash. Now we have Obama, No Hope and No Cash!

Here's a better question. Do you have $50 000+ to spend for the 1000hp you are after?

Not even close bud. That might be what I have in my whole car.

Really? I've heard bad things about Hennessey, but nothing but good about Heffner.

You're right. I didn't know there were two of them with such similar names. Rear the "Comments" on the bottom of this page>

A few of my friends own Vipers and are members of the Viper Club of America and told me that Hennessey is a name that you don't bring up around Viper people because of all the BS. I think I heard somewhere that some of the 1000+ hp Heffner cars get 20 mpg also.

About 10psi on pump gas and water/methanol injection when needed.
