    1st 16 turbo / Engine Failure

    no bias, just looking out for me, they were notified about the issue in Sept/Oct about the 16 issues by rep. There were little to no issues with 15 and older sleds they installed turbos on, so I agree with you there. He was also at service school in November were the problems were discussed in...

    Warning, -16 late build Viper turbo breakdowns, bad rods.

    When I took delivery of my 16 XTX LE, I was told not to turbo it, as there could be problems, so I did not do it. Now there is no warranty coverage in Canada on turbo machines. I heard last week that the wrong kits/tunes were sent out and engines are now blowing up. Glad I didn't Turbo
