Hennessey 705 HP Corvette ZR700

hennessey is all over the Ls9.

Press release:


Not satisfied with the 638 horsepower on tap in your Chevrolet Corvette ZR1? Hennessey Performance has the solution. They've come up with a tuning package that includes a smaller supercharger pulley that increases boost from 11 to 14 psi, an upgraded intercooler, K&N intake, stainless steel headers, high-flow catalytic converters, and a reprogrammed engine management system that pushes output past the 700-horsepower mark. If that still doesn't meet your needs, Hennessey can keep the upgrades coming with high-flow cylinder heads and a more aggressive camshaft that puts the ZR1 at 755 hp. Hennessey's website says that 1000 hp is attainable, and we're guessing it involves a pair of turbochargers. Follow the jump to watch a video of the Hennessey ZR700 knock out an 11.03 second quarter-mile with relative ease. # Power: 705 HP @ 6,400 rpm
# 717 lb-ft Torque @ 3,800 rpm

Performance:
# 0-60 mph: 3.1 sec.
# 0-150 mph: 13.9 sec. (stock = 17.1 sec.)
# 1/4 mile: 11.0 @ 136 mph (tested on factory Michelin tires)
# Top Speed: 212 mph (estimated)

Inlcudes:
# Supercharger Pulley & Blower Snout Upgrade (increases boost from 11 to 14 psi)
# Intercooler System Upgrade
# K&N Air Filter
# Re-program Engine Management Computer
# Stainless Steel 1 7/8 inch Headers
# High Flow Catalytic Converters with Mid Pipes
# Hennessey & ZR700 Exterior Emblems (Optional)
# Hennessey ZR700 Premium Floor Mats
# Professional Installation at HPE
# Dyno Testing & Tuning

it's basically a pulley/tune/intake/exhaust package. I did the exact same thing for my '04 Cobra for under $2 grand. But since Hennessey is associated with it, I would guess $25,000

But hey, it comes with premium floor mats!

They are taking a supercar...and making it superER i guess

I like hennessey but i would love to see maybe someone old school like yearone do a 2010 camaro...have you seen what they did with the Burt Reynolds Edition Trans Am?

They threw an LS7 into the BAN I
And twin turbo into BAN III from nelson racing engines

Now i want to see an engine built by nelson put into a camaro and vette and see what happens

Only a 2.0 60ft. I can only imagine what this car is capable of with slicks.
