Hennessey Performance Engineering (HPE) has released another weapon for those determined to outgun all other vehicles on the road. This is called the HPE700 Twin-Turbo Corvette Stingray - and predictably, goes like stink.
While the broth, naturally aspirated 6.2-liter V8 under the hood of the Chevrolet LT1 is good for a healthy 455 horsepower and 450 pounds-feet of torque, the good people of Texas have moved the game considerably by bolting on a pair of 62 turbochargers - mm and elbow boost pressure up to 7 psi. With turbo wastegates double, twin blow-off valve and intercooler to reduce the temperature of charge, HPE has massaged the engine to produce 707 horsepower and 661 pounds-feet of torque. Faced with a stopwatch, Hennessey says his HPE700 Twin-Turbo Corvette Stingray will hit the landmark 60 mph in 2.9 seconds (factory stock is 3.8 seconds) and punch through the quarter mile in 10.5 seconds 135.4 mph. Its top speed is estimated at more than 210 mph.
The price of a turnkey HPE700 Twin-Turbo Corvette Stingray is approximately $ 120,000 (including the donor Corvette with 3LT package and Z51), and buyers are able to choose whether they want a six-speed automatic or manual transmission seven-speed transmission and a series of other updates, including HPE forged monobloc wheels and aerodynamics to provide greater stability at speed. The company plans to build only two dozen examples, so you might not get to see one for yourself on the streets, if you can not do in Boca Raton Concours car show. We have the next best thing
