Confused: Which two performance packages would yield better performance and why?

I was looking at various performance packages for the Gen III Viper by Racing Solutions and came across what appears to be an inconsistency?

For $24,900 (installed) you get a twin turbo package that supposedly yields the following horsepower and performance:

Horse Power:… 810 (702 rear wheel)
Torque:… 850 (725 rear wheel)
0-60:… 3.3 seconds
Quarter mile:...10.4 at 137 mph
Top Speed:… 215

For $39,900 (installed) they will build a performance Viper engine (SR 750 Package) that supposedly yields far less horse power and torque and yet runs quicker and faster?

Horse Power:… 750 (630 rear wheel)
Torque:… 730 (637 rear wheel)
0-60:… 3.1 seconds
Quarter mile:… 10.22 at 140 mph
Top Speed:… 218

I thought it may have been a typo but it has the same results for the Gen II as well. Does the all motor package make more overall horse and torque, thereby yielding superior performance?

Probably a typo, but it would make sense to me that the all motor makes power throughout the band, and could be quicker. I know my dad's turbo srt is faster than his 675hp all motor gts. But that GTS ripped through every gear and felt muuuuuch faster.

Will do. For the price, 24k installed, a set of twin turbos would make great power on an SRT/10 and not compromise daily driver characteristics.

I've heard from my Viper friends that twin turbo set-ups are not recommended because they overheat the engine and cause problems.

FYI, RSI's updated Bolt-on TT price is $29K. From experience, have them do a stand alone fuel system and AEM...probably another 5-6k. That way, you'll at least be "safe" as far as A/F go. If not, get ready to spend another 25k on a rebuilding your motor.
