620-hp Hennessey Dodge Challenger SRT600 Introduced For 2009, Change of Underwear Sold Seperately

Hennessey Challenger SRT600

Unlike the Mopar-tuned Dodge Challenger drag racers, the new Hennessey Challenger HPE600 Turbo’s are completely street legal and completely bad ass. A product of Hennessey Performance Engineering [HPE], the Hennessey HPE600 Turbo package is geared towards drivers looking to upgrade the already impressive stock performance of their Dodge Challenger SRT8 models. Utilizing forced induction for a turbo-charged power boost, the HPE600 Turbo upgrades the Challenger SRT8’s OEM output an incredible 195 units to 620-hp. Coupled with 650 lb-ft of torque, the Hennessey Challenger earned itself an awe-inspiring 11.9-second quarter-mile laptime during test runs.

In addition to white knuckle speeds, the Hennessey Turbo package also primes the Challenger SRT8’s for lightning-fast responsiveness with KW adjustable coil-over shocks/springs and StopTech brakes. Of course, this kind of precision execution doesn’t come cheap, the 2009 Dodge Challenger SRT8 with complete HPE600 Turbo upgrade starts at $74,950. We believe the tag is worth every penny [a pretty significant admission, coming from us], because standard with the Hennessey Turbo upgrade is:

Project Cars: The Roller Stage.

There is something magic that happens when a project car reaches the ‘roller stage’. When you can actually push the car in and out of the garage. You may not have working brakes, full steering or even a seat- Heck you probably don’t have a complete engine yet! But there is air in those tires, and the suspension is set up just enough to soak in the stance. This is the part of the build when you start to feel like you’ve actually got a real thing going, not just a pile of parts or some long term art project- You’ve got a car.

I just got back from my hometown of KC, Mo. after paying a late night visit to a good friend’s garage. The last time I was there a few years back, he was at the roller stage of a certain little Modified project. This time he’s doing a killer chopped A coupe brought back from the dead and built on a shoe-string budget; I love it. As my buddy and I nudged it out on his driveway, I could just see it finished, exhaust pipes blaring, going down the road at full tilt. He saw it too. That’s all you need to keep going sometimes; to push past that next difficult step of engineering and full functionality. Keep going man! Its gonna rule.
