Let me think about this... hmmm... ah,

...

..

.

NO.

Maybe when my S600 makes as much horsepower as my yellow RT, I'll consider giving up the Viper.

2004 S 600
I'm doing RenTech upgrade to my 2004 S600 on order. Concerning warranty (I was worried about this too)...it has no effect since upgrade is merely bringing engine to Maybach spec which is still within warranty parameter for a marketed MB engine.

MB merely detuned the current V12 in S600 by lowering fuel pressure and air induction ratio.

Just curios, what is HP limitation for gasoline engines for now, something around 1500HP? What 0-60 times should be for such engine? I just trying to figure out the edge when rocket type engine should be used. What limitation for electrical motors? Anyway, it looks like tires give most problem to improve 0-60, so any engine giving power on wheels can't break this problem.
