800 Hp Gts

Considering the purchase of a 50k miles on it, paxton supercharged, 800 hp. It is checks out, is 43k a good price.

I know some who wont touch modded Vipers. Other options would be to buy another GTS and SC it but this deal isn't bad, just worried about the miles considering I dont know the history of the car (pushed hard, etc). Vipers are strong but if not taken proper care of then... But anyway, it will get inspected before purchase but anything could happen afterwards, regardless if inspection comes back clean (had a similar problem before) Any inputs, especially you guys with high-er mile SC. Any problems I should look for or may run into.

I would be mainly concerned with who did the work on it

Is it silver? If so what area is the car in - it sure sounds like it may be my old car and I could give you history on it.

Yep, it is my old car - so I did the work!

The car has Paulo Castellano's old Heffner Vortech setup on it, that he had on his car when he entered the Sport Compact or whichever magazine it was shootout, etc. He sold it to me when he was developing his first TT kit on his car. That Vortech is practically a piece of Viper history!

So it's safe to assume it hasn't been taken over 200 mph more than a few hundred times, right

The supercharger just may have been but not on my car. I'm a quarter mile guy, few trips to the dragstrip plus some street duty was about it. 150 MPH tops at best.
