Hennessey's 1,000-HP Exorcist Camaro Might Send the Dodge Demon Right Back to Hell

Chevy's answer to Dodge's new hot rod is divine indeed.

• Hennessey Performance pre-empted next week's launch of the hotly anticipated launch of the Dodge Demon drag racing-optimized muscle car with the announcement of the 1,000-horsepower Exorcist Chevrolet Camaro.
  
  The Exorcist will make a parallel public debut when it is unveiled in its home state of Texas at the Houston Auto Show while the Demon is introduced at the New York International Auto Show.
  
  
  
  
  Hennessey Performance
  
  2017 Camaro ZL1, then adds the $55,000 Exorcist upgrade, which includes a larger, higher flowing supercharger and intercooler, ported factory cylinder heads, a hotter camshaft, long-tube stainless steel headers, high-flow air induction system and custom engine management calibration.
  
  
  
  
  Hennessey Performance
  
  The Exorcist upgrade is available for both 6-speed manual and 10-speed automatic equipped ZL1 Camaros, though the automatic requires another $9,950 worth of improvements so the transmission can withstand the fury of the engine's 996 lb.-ft. of torque.
  
  
  
  
  Hennessey Performance
  
  “Equipped with rear drag radial tires, the Exorcist will deliver 0-to-60 mph times under three seconds while running the quarter-mile in less than ten seconds,” said company founder and president, John Hennessey.
  
  
  
  
  Hennessey Performance
  
  “However, the Exorcist is not just a quarter-mile racer," he insists. "It’s a well-rounded super muscle car that is just as happy on a road course as it is on the dragstrip and street.”
  
  
  
  
  Hennessey Performance
  
  Hennessey offers an optional drag pack that includes a pair of 20 inch wheels with 315/30-20 Nitto drag radial tires, drive shaft upgrade, floor jack and tool kit for $8,995. Road racers can specify a set of 20 inch lightweight Hennessey wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires instead for $6,995.
  
  
  
  
  Hennessey Performance
  
  The Exorcist is available as a new turnkey vehicle from Hennessey and can also be ordered directly from Chevrolet dealers. ZL1 Camaro owners can also send their vehicles to HPE for the conversion.
  
  
  
  
  Hennessey Performance
  
  Hennessey Performance only plans to built one hundred Exorcists, so if you need to banish Dodge Demons, sign up quickly.

Hennessy reliability aint shit. Just mod a Zl1 piece by piece. Long tubes,cam, pulleys, computer upgrade, dump the goodyears for some Cup 2's, etc. Way cheaper than paying Hennessy.

HP is a horror show. My homie basically destroyed his Z07 pack Vette modding it from HP & he paid twice the price to get fucked.

I have a 2017 SS vert and my ish is quick....I can just imagine how these dudes feel. I dont drag race so Im good where im at. I MIGHT add a supercharger in the future but if Ima do it then ima do it right. For everything should hit for around $12-15 stacks.


This how i wanna do mine futurewise. Ol boys Camaro is a beast for an SS

But first im getting my ground effects to match the top and interior.

Some dummy pulled up to me in a weak, punk ass stingray wanting to play last week. I'm looking at this dude like really? I'm faster than you in eco mode hawse. He rolls down the window and points at my hellcat badge. Ok motherfucker. Let see what your light ass can do. Hit Srt button and put cat in custom, red key in use. 707+ HP. Drops to M4 and warm up the engine he jets off. I hit M5, 6, 7 and fly past him. He still trying to catch up so I drop back to M5 and leave dude with his mouth open. He never caught up. Tell yo friends.....about meeeeeee. Anyway, I think the Zora is coming.. That 10 speed Camaro still hasn't dropped wtf Chevy

Is it just me or is SRT a team of engineers.

Yep. True and true.

I wouldn't trust Henessey to do any mod work

 

[The Plutonian]

exorcist.
extra $60k on top of a $60k car?

Makes no sense at all. You can mod a 60+ anything for about 15-20k if that. Shit you paying 120k go ahead and get a Porsche or viper, Z06. Not me though
