Firstly, your formating is difficult and distracting.

But I like the list, except for engine on Kavil with Blaster turret because you cant fire turret if you boost. Swap it for EPT.

It's refreshing to see the torpedoes. They can certainly pack a punch but they are the first thing I'd drop.

Two variants to consider:

1) trade one torpedo to allow Kavil to have EU, autoblaster, Unhinged, and predator or PTL. This will sync better with the fast, arc-dodgy style of the vipers.

2) I like the thought of Kavil and 2 vipers but you could fit both named ones. Try this.

Y-WING: · Kavil (24)

Veteran Instincts (1)

Blaster Turret (4)

R4 Agromech (2)

STAR VIPER: · Prince Xizor (31)

Veteran Instincts (1)

Autothrusters (2)

STAR VIPER: · Guri (30)

Predator (3)

Autothrusters (2)

The vipers are a little light on upgrades but you get high PS ships capable of doing serious damage. Could swap EPTs on vipers to give Xizor some action economy.

Yeah I tried just copy/pasting from the website while including the link. Might run the named StarViper list today.
