In Dodge intend to equip the next version of its Viper supercar with a more powerful engine. Until recently, namely Viper with its archaic 8.4-liter V10 engine with 640 hp He was considered the most powerful model of the concern Chrysler. The release version of the Dodge Challenger coupe and sedan Dodge Charger 6.2-liter V8 Hellcat, developing 707 hp, however, change this situation.
The Dodge engineers do not intend to give up the big motor at the expense of smaller and more compact turbocharged engines. They will improve the unit, they put the turbo-compressor. Thus engine power will exceed 800 hp, but the company is aware it will not guarantee increase interest in the car. And therefore will focus on the overall improvement of the Viper.
In Dodge believe that after tuning the engine can reach even 1,000 hp, but will then have to reprocess some of the components on the engine and transmission. The company does not have the necessary funds for such a thing and therefore will be limited to 800 hp.
