Hennessey Corvette ZR700


It's been a good month so far for Corvette upgrades. And Hennessey is continuing the trend, revealing this tire shredding ZR700 'vette.

Not satisfied with the mere 638 horsepower that your stock ZR1 provides? Henessey Performance has a solution in the form of a tuning package 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.

Watch the video to see the ZR700 effortlessly rip down the 1/4 mile in 11.03 seconds.
