We’ve all be ranting and raving about the Hellcat twins, because Dodge straight up went full Brabus, taking that old Mercedes E-Class platform that sits underneath the Charger and Challenger and stuffing a freaking 707 horsepower engine in it. That was crazy enough to get everybody talking.

This Custom Viper TA is crazier. By slapping a pair of turbochargers on the already powerful 8.4L V10 tuners RSI Racing Solutions managed to get the engine pumping out to 1,042 horsepower at the wheels along with 973 lb-ft. of torque. Driving this car can probably loosen even the tightest of sphincters. Better yet, as nuts/awesome as this is, it’s not the most powerful version of the Viper that RSI makes. There’s also a version that only runs on ethanol that’s 50% more powerful.
