Sin Cars at Silverstone

Sin Cars at Silverstone

Viper Performance continues to support German based car manufacturer Sin Cars with a supply deal for all of their silicone hoses.

The Sin Cars team are part of the 2014 British GT cup which made its way to Silverstone in August.

Team Sin Cars have spent the summer months manufacturing a new chassis for the Sin R1 Gt car. This has included extensive re modeling including changing the design and manufacturing techniques of the way the chassis is produced and will handle on circuit.

A new homologated ABS system and traction control has also been added to the list of driver assists. 
The new model will feature a new up rated LS7 engine that has been exclusively built for Team Sin Cars using high quality components.

We wish Sin Cars all the best in the GT cup and any future races.

NEW: Unique Y piece Silicone hose connector

Y Piece HoseViper Performance are excited to introduce a new product, the unique universal Y piece silicone hose. These hose connectors are very carefully hand crafted and are completely unique to the market place.

Here at Viper Performance we are always looking to innovate and develop new products, which meet the needs of our customers. We are the ONLY company currently producing this type of hose, all other established manufacturers in business 25 yrs or more have not released a part like this.

The main body is the larger of the diameter, reducing and splitting down to two equal branches. Beautifully moulded there is no “flashing” of silicone inside the join, for am excellent air / water flow.

We expect that these hoses will mainly be used for water or air connections to inter-cooler systems. However, the Y piece hose will also be ideal for any split connections.

This is a very useful connector, which is otherwise impossible to obtain. Buy yours today

Viper Performance proud to support Holeshot racing

Holeshot RacingViper Performance are proud to supply hoses, aluminium pipes, and fittings to Holeshot Racing.

Holeshot Racing has 26 years experience in all forms of motorcycle sport and we offer continued support through all events.

This weekend the team were at the Elvington Speed and Wheelie speed event, where they acceded 250mph on many runs. Cecil “Bubba” Myers and his friend Brock O Lee from the USA also joined the team.

Bubba managed some 180mph wheelies on the turbo ZX10R despite being his first time on a turbo bike. Brock flew through the 200+ barrier and ran 231mph, which was great for his first time doing a speed event considering he had not ridden a turbo bike before.

Holeshot racing bikeThe wheelie record was smashed again this year and was won by Egbert Von Popta at 199mph for the kilometer. Ted Brady achieved 197mph and 2nd on a Holeshot GSXR1000 turbo and last years winner Paddy O’Sullivan again on a Holeshot GSXR1000 turbo 3rd with 186mph.

We wish Holeshot racing the best for future events.

Barbed Hose connectors now available

Barbed hose connectorsViper Performance are pleased to launch new products to the market. These galvanised steel hose connectors are ideal to join and connect rubber or silicone hoses together. The barbed ends mean that these connectors grip better onto the hose. We recommend using hose clamps to secure the joiner if the application will be under pressure.

We have tee piece hose connectors available, which are normally very hard to find and offer an ideal solution for small diameter hoses. The connectors can be used on up to 32mm Internal Diameter for coolant / car radiator application by connecting or reducing a connection in diameter.

We also have a number of straight and reducing connectors available. These range from 8mm outer diameter up to 22mm and are also hard to find. They offer an ideal solution for small diameter hose, connecting or reducing a connection in diameter.

If you require larger diameter Tee Piece Hose Connectors for intercoolers etc you can find aluminium versions here.

2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil Silicone Hoses

Brazil World Cup HosesAlways innovating, and pushing boundaries, hose manufacturers Viper Performance have made a series of completely unique custom Silicone Hoses for a wealthy Private client in Brazil. The client wishing to remain anonymous has a private collection of exotic sports cars, and has commissioned Viper Performance to make very unique Silicone hoses for a special project.

Never before has another silicone hose manufacturer made unique exclusive hoses representing a country’s flag. Viper Performance have the know how, and technical knowledge to manufacture such hoses and meet a client specific brief.

To make the hoses Viper Performance had to colour match silicone pigments to a specific colour asked by the client, make and print the Brazilian Flag onto the hoses, all in advance of the Word Cup 2014!.

Viper Performance cannot disclose exact price paid, however much work is involved in mixing colours, making a workable raw material batch, designing and printing logos costs well into the 4 figure sums. This was a one off project, these hoses are exclusive and will never be produced again.

Viper Performance does not normally do commissioned work like this, and mainly focuses on manufacturing universal hoses and direct replacement hose kits in best selling popular Blue, Red and Black, other colours are also available by special order. Viper Performance has not made special ltd edition coloured hoses since 2011, but in the past made dayglow hoses, Gold hoses, Silver coloured hoses as special limited runs.

These “Brazil Edition Custom Hoses” are a work of art and will likely never be seen in the flesh as our private collector keeps his cars well hidden. Viper Performance would love to hear your thoughts on this project, if you think it is great show the world the Brazil hoses for the world cup!
