> This is the Hennessey HPE800 Twin Turbo Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8.
> That 800 in the moniker stands, naturally, for how many horses have been strapped under the Santa-spec red bonnet. 805bhp, to be precise, that ride shotgun with 823 torques to give a 0-60mph time of 3.1 seconds. That’s fractionally, _fractionally_ faster than a Ferrari 458 Italia. Mr Hennessey tells us it’ll do the standing quarter mile in 10.9 seconds, travelling at 130mph.
> That massive 6.4-litre V8 gets rebigulated to 7 litres, treated to two turbos and mated to an upgraded transmission and torque converter. It also gets 20in wheels, much leather and Alcantara, a Brembo brake system, lowered sports suspension and a carbon fibre lip spoiler.
> Says Mr Hennessey: “This vehicle is designed for the performance minded driver who live in Aspen or Moscow and wants to be the fastest in all weather conditions.”
> Or indeed, the driver who enjoys plastering looks of sheer surprise across supercar owners at the lights. Yikes. Just 24 will be built, with prices starting from £150,000 ($235,000).

I am far from an SUV guy, but this looks awesome and I’m sure it performs just as well too.

That price is retarded. The New Era built SRT-8 is almost as fast as that.

I like the SRT8 Grand Cherokees, this one is ridiculous though. With the price tag AND those ugly wheels.

I’d rather spend that money on a 997T and software/exhaust and it will probably be as fast as that jeep

Hell you could go buy a GTR and take it to AMS and get the alpha 12 package and still have money if your pocket and be faster!

Save yourself the money and get a stage 6 motorsports single turbo kit for an SRT8. They have a stock motor one running in the 10s and a built motor in the 9s.

TTC just put a TT kit on a stock 6.1 threw a transmission in it and a fuel system, 9psi pump gas was almost 630rwhp.
His 426TT was closer to 1200awhp.
There are guys making them fast, Hennessy isn’t one of them.

:bigok:
Hennessey is famous for insanely priced packages that never make it to production, and then trying to market them. He may end up with ONE order, so all of the R&D costs is built into each car.
He is good at marketing, but never does anything remotely impressive these days. His cars routinely under-deliver and fail under testing, while the “smaller name” tuners walk all over him.

TT kit based on the STS kit.
Stage 6 Twin Turbo on a 392. This thing has a ton left in it.
The Stage 6 Single turbo 392 that was in Z28’s post .
RetroKing’s LPM 440, NA Hanging the motha’fuggin wheels.
BuilderBill’s TT BEAST - (Now at Stage 6, they’re shooting for 8s)
Crazy Russians… there are a bunch of these guys doing crazy things to these Jeeps.
Cali guy… his vids are unique, but his Jeep rips. 426 w/ KB.
And Twin Turbo Creations - Out of NYC -
TT on stock motor with supporting fuel and transmission - PUMP GAS -
TT 426 -
I could go on and on about all of the amazing builders for Jeeps, without listing Hennessey… and they have proven track records, budget minded goals and deliver products.
I think the “Viper Doctor” should get into the Hemi business 😉
