Yes because this little radio really needs Max-Mod voltage regulator upgrade. It is right up their with putting a Ferrari V10 in your riding lawn mower to cut the grass! LOL

I am waiting for him or Snake to install 2X Max-Mods, 2x Palomar 9530's and 2x audio ic's in a Cobra or Galaxy 959 or the like!

Then they can put them on a meter swinging something stupid like 200 watts and make a video about it! LOL

Maybe he should shoehorn a HG2879 into that SR94 he could mount it right to the heat sink! LOL

I feel like this should be an episode of Seinfeld or maybe the 3 Stooges! LOL

A lawn mower with a Ferrari V10 would be ridiculous all right. Everyone knows the Lamborghini V10 is the one you want in your riding lawnmower, they did start out building tractors so they have more relevant experience after all.;)

Please, the V10 from a Dodge Viper. American muscle for American lawns!

Well, I am ok with an Audi V10 just as long as it is not a Volkswagen W16! LOL Wonder how long a V10 would operate with the tiny fuel tank most riding lawn mowers have? LOL Be even worse than those custom motorcycles that have tiny fuel tanks for cosmetics!

No way the SR94 can dissipate enough heat from it's final to need a Max Mod. It also violates my rules for upgrades. It is fine to upgrade apart but not for the sake of more power out. Upgrades to the radio chassis should be confined to enhanced durability, stability, and cooler operation. If you want more power stick a linear in line. Not in the radio, not hanging off the back of the radio! In line in a separate location with its own power leads. Heat is bad and heat inside the radio is even worse!

Ya....Not so much. The Viper is based on the old LA series V8's. No what Daimler Chyrsler then now Fiat Chrysler should have done is take the 4.7L V8 added 2-4 cylinders and a flat plane crank. Now that they have the 6.3 Hellcat Hemi some derivative of that would make sense. Maybe doing some sort of compound drive system with G-Lader type supercharger and turbo system. I am not a fan of turbochargers on daily drivers but on a Super Car, I am fine with it. Supercharging makes more sense in the American marketplace. I am also not a fan of the Eaton supercharger systems we see the USA . Not the best way to package a supercharger on a car takes up a lot of space right on top of the engine/
