Yes, impressive stats!
Can't help but wonder how the car would feel @ 230mph.

Be interesting to see what long term well regarded first rate quality shops like Lingenfelter, Callaway, Katech, Vengeance, etc come up with. Although I’m a charter member of the too much is never enough club, trying to get 1200 hp to hook up on the street, this I gotta see.

My concern is the rest of the drive train is not designed for that kind of HP and Torque.

Do they even have a ZR1 or motor to test these numbers?

Using stock press photos and photoshopping different colors and wheels doesn't make what they're marketing a reality... yet.

There’s a reason people go to Lingenfelter, Callaway etc. First class quality work at a fair price ( I’m a repeat Lingenfelter customer with 2 supercharged C6’s, one of them with a forged bottom end motor), they stand behind their work and last but not least HONESTY and INTEGRITY.

Not interested in anything from that name. Viper folks learned the hard way.

I'm relativley new to Corvettes. I've had mine for 20 months. Before reading some of these threads I always thought Hennessey was a respected company. He must do some serious PR.

I'm certain that Weapon-X can do the same mods for you but you'll actually get what you paid for and then some...

On edit: I wouldn't let Hennessey mod my junky Chevy Cruze...

I wouldn't "buy" (or, try to) a broken bicycle from Hennesey.

It's amazing to me that Hennessey is still in business. Who decides to drop the amount of money necessary to mod these cars without doing at minimum a small bit of research... it doesn't take much digging to find story after story about this guy and his shady dealings

go elsewhere
