Default Frog's Paxton with "Front Mount Intercooler" & fuel system is done. (PICS)

I mostly post in the Southwest forum, but figured I would share...

I just put the bumber and hood on this past weekend but snapped off a few pics before installing it. Still trying to get it tuned...(working on it... will be a few weeks), but here are a few pics. Basically I bought Alkybanshee's Paxton blower with the custom Front Mount Intercooler setup he had. Cast pisons in my 01' motor, so probably only running around 6lbs of boost. I built a fuel system and now it needs a tune. Just wanted to share. I haven't really driven my car in about a year because I got a fresh paint job and then my car was having starting problems. I debugged that for a little bit and then just decided to start the blower project. Sure will be nice to feel some power again. My car was already pretty decent NA, with about 461HP & 507TQ, so hope to be close to around 600WHP after a tune, may be closer to 650, but we'll see...

Well, there are some high horsepower cast Vipers out there but mostly tuners that can fine tune on a regular basis. I think 909HP is one of the highest Gen II Viper cast engines I have heard of from a tuner. I constantly beat on my car so I'll stay at lower, safer boost for now. I don't have the deep pockets to chance losing my engine.
