2006 Hennessey GT700
Hennessey will upgrade almost any car, and his easy tweaks to the Ford GT up the power to 710 bhp and 690 Lb-Ft of torque.
The upgrade is limited to engine tuning which increases the boost from a stock 13 psi to 17. Included are high flow air filters, a new supercharger pulley, custom tuned engine management and a new stainless steel exhaust.
As a whole, this small package holds a quick punch and Hennessey says it’s good for 0 – 60 mph: 2.9 seconds and a top speed of 230 mph.
The only way to indentify the GT700 is a small script on the rear decklid. Other than this, they look surprising stock both from the outside and under the hood.
