: Twin Turbo kit Ordered!
BuilderBill 02-10-2009, 05:03 AM Yesterday I pulled the trigger on Hennessey's Twin Turbo kit for our Jeeps.
This is what my 426 pooch needs to keep up with the pack.
BTW, they made 805 whp :eek::eek: yesterday with one that they just installed.
I'll freshen up my engine (with some great PPP parts from Andy) at the time and install a TT cam from Andy at PPP.
Hennessey uses a stock cam on their 426 TT Jeeps.
The kit should be sent out within 2 weeks to ViperDan at Stateline Chrysler. He will be doing the complete kit and engine work.:)
I'm hoping to have it ready to go 1 week before the Charlotte race....
The kit was $17,000.

Vinnysrt8 02-10-2009, 06:05 AM wow bill thats alot of money i think for a turbo cant wait to see it done def post up pict during the install.
Toothmonger 02-10-2009, 06:12 AM exciting stuff! Might have to sneak down there and watch some of that install.
Power Ported Performance 02-10-2009, 08:19 AM Looks good, cant wait to see this thing run in NC.
BuilderBill 02-10-2009, 08:57 AM Looks good, cant wait to see this thing run in NC.

HEMISFEAR 02-10-2009, 09:10 AM Good luck Bill! Monster build you'll have for sure brother!
Good luck Bill. Are you going to have this ready for the big event??
Mike_Levy 02-10-2009, 09:34 AM $17k???!!! Damn, I think I'll go with my previous plan of getting two STS Universal kits and fabbing my own piping. Thats a ****load of money for some relatively cheap parts.
navyavi469 02-10-2009, 09:43 AM I bet with modest add-ons/upgrades like pillar pods, electronics, and ceramic ball bearing turbos, you're knocking on the door of $20K!
And for the average person, sales tax & installation could drive it up even more.
Does the kit include one of your fully built drivetrains Bill :D
Look forward to lining up next to you, although I would imagine I'll lose.
JerseyBoy@Stage6 02-10-2009, 10:02 AM Congrats Bill, I know you will love it. Those GT35R's will have more then enough capacity to push your rig into big power territory. It will definetly be a good testbed for your driveline parts. You just need a transbrake and you will really break some stuff! Hennessey doing the tune for you too?

SRTSMKDU 02-10-2009, 10:05 AM Congrats. There are a few Hennessey Jeeps here in Riyadh.

Hennessey will provide a tune which I will consider a "base" tune.
Yah,,,that would be embarrassing as Hell to grenade the driveline at my home track in front of all you guys!:eek::eek:

2 weeks blocked out!!?? Lol, lets hope viper dan has helpers.
Leegoober 02-11-2009, 12:06 AM 2 weeks blocked out!!?? Lol, lets hope viper dan has helpers.
ViperDan does his jobs Solo. I guess cuz he cant blame anyone else, and knows if he does/doesnt make a mistake. He does some seriuosly good installs, but dont take my word for it :D
