Hennessey Performance Engineering (HPE) today announced that it is introducing the company's first high-performance upgrade system for the new 2008 Dodge Viper SRT10. Known as the Venom 650R, the engine modifications increase by 78 horsepower giving the Viper the ability to accelerate from 0 to 150 mph 1.5 seconds quicker (15.5 sec. versus 17.0 sec.) than the already factory-fast 2008 Viper that offers a stout 600 horsepower.

The Venom 650R package consists of custom fabricated long tube stainless-steel exhaust headers with 1 7/8-inch primary tubes flowing into 5-to-1 merge collectors. From there, the spent exhaust gases flow through aftermarket catalytic converters before traveling through a full 3-inch stainless-steel exhaust system fit with high-flow stainless-steel mufflers. Other performance upgrades include: K&N high-flow air filter element, 2-piece light-weight cross-drilled brake rotors (saving 8 lbs per corner), professional installation, dyno testing, Hennessey Venom Power floor mats and exclusive Hennessey Venom 650R exterior badges. Each Venom 650R has a serial numbered plaque located in the cockpit and under the hood. Rounding out the package, the Venom 650R will carry a full 3 year / 36,000 mile Hennessey warranty that will cover the modifications performed to the vehicle.

HPE plans to build 200 units for the 2008 model year. Many of these cars will be available through an exclusive Hennessey dealer network comprised of high-performance minded Dodge dealers.

The Hennessey Venom 650R upgrade package gives 2008 Viper owners the option to fend off any Corvette Blue Devil ZR-1s that they might encounter in the coming New Year.

hennessey is a fraud, cheat, liar, who always has multiple litigations against him.


how is he still in business?

 

Hennessey doesn't have much credibility left.

 

Have to admit I haven't heard a good word about Hennessey in many years.

 

Hennessy has re-built what he did in the early years to lay down to the lions.

I am not aware my-self of any current or previous claims 10 year sans...

The headers and exhaust seem to make good power. IMO good power goods should only be about $5,000 tops for Headers + exhaust installed.....by my good and reputable dealer of course..

If there is true power to be had, Im in... But This is an early race to the bank!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2008 will bring lots of power!

The !st isnt Ness. the best.

MO,

he is still an ***!
