High Power Chambering.   That would either be a change from 8P(f) +5 AP to 8P -1 AP or 8P(f) +5 AP to 10P +4 AP, depending on how you see the HPC mod working.
I doupt there are many GM:S who would allow you to HPC mod a gun that can only fire fletchette ammo.
Just start using AP fletchettes that gives you damage code of 8P 0 AP

Well, it's War!  A lot of the rules are only half thought out.  There's nothing to stop you from modding an Ares Thunderstruck with HPC, even though it doesn't even use a standard explosive propellant...

Honestly though, it does make some sense to mod up even flechette as HP, if you read the entry.  It just uses a more expensive propellant in the round and a heavier firing chamber in the gun to deal with the extra blast force.  It could easily be something applied to any type of full metal killing round.

To bad that the Viper apparantly fires plastic then.
