Again, I'm not surprised with increased boost and drag tires considering the base line...

From Motor Trend:

Drive a 600-horsepower Dodge Viper SRT-10? Better move out of the way, bub. Launched well (and that means enough revs to keep the blown 6.2L V-8 from bogging but not so many revs that you simply whirl the rear tires into black jam), the 638-horse ZR1 blitzes from 0 to 60 miles per hour in a scalding 3.3 sec (versus 3.7 for the Dodge). Once those huge rear 335/25ZR-20 Michelin Sport PS2s are well and truly hooked up, though, the ZR1 really gets down and dirty. The quarter-mile flashes by in just 11.2 seconds at a trap speed of 130.5 mph (at that point the Viper is doing 124.4 mph). By the second half of the quarter-mile, the ZR1 is running away from almost every other automobile we've ever tested. The sound? Imagine an IndyCar being flat-footed around the Brickyard by a screaming Sam Kinison.

How does 10.03 at 141.5 turn into 10.02 at 142....lol. Still sweet.....

wont adding long tubes and exhaust lower the boost a little bit while still making similar power....probably better for the engine too.

Sure sells magazines when they greatly exaggerate the difference between the ZR1 and Viper so ridiculously lol. They are neck and neck in the 1/4 and all the way up to 150mph from one of MT's own test lol. After that I believe the ZR1 will romp. More torque, better aero for the ZR1 should take over bigtime up top. Really wish someone would do this real world test [60-190] between these two so we have some cold hard numbers instead of speculation.
