Pretty much through the grapevine. A friend of mine mentioned it to me a while ago. No one on this board, thats for sure. I never really follow his stuff for the most part. I didnt even know he had porsche kits until a friend told me. U gonna answer my question on my last post?

 

back on topic. The S7 TT will out accelerate the CGT (by a WIDE margin). Their 1/4 mile trap is about 10mph difference. 10mph in the 1/4 is huge. The S7 also handles a lot better on paper. I've seen slalom tests up over 73mph for the S7 and literature from journalists saying that you cannot push this car passed it's limits.

Read this excerpt and notice the bold:

The S7 TT (w/ 750BHP or the optional 850/1000 BHP upgrades) would DESTROY the CGT & the Enzo in a straight line. That car is plainly a BEAST...I've spoken to a person who has driven all three cars quite extensively and said that the S7 TT is much faster than the CGT and can definitely beat the Enzo in a straight line. Around corners however, the Enzo & S7 TT would be a close call. However, the CGT would get smoked around corners as well. I mean think about it. The car is sub 3000 lbs. and has 750+ HP.. the power-to-weight ratio is just insane.

 

I was being sarcastic

 

If you dont mind me asking, WHAT car(s) do you personally own? I hope not just that 55 chopped.

 

If you don't mind me asking, how does that relate to the comments i've made to you and the lack of knowledge you have thrown out in your posts? You can do a search and find out what car I just purchased, provided pics as well (my avatar should give it away) . I'm a broke college student so nothing special. But if you are going to try to attack my car/tuner knowledge based on what I drive, you have proven that what you drive does not make you smart about tuners/cars. Just curious, how old are you?



I still can't believe you said "look what he's done w/ porsches" Yet you haven't even seen anything he's done

 

I'm sorry but that is one of the most ignorant posts I've ever read here. Its fairly obvious that you are just regurgitating the falsities you have heard through the "grapevine". That does no good to anyone.

Before you make a post like that, just make sure you have your facts straight. Do a little research on Hennessey's background. There are at least 2 members on this board alone that can tell you some shocking stories. In my opinion, his past shady dealings superceed any advancements he might have made in the Viper world.

 

I am in no way trying to "attack" your car or what you drive. Just curious as to what you drive, this is a car forum, correct? I am 22, how old are you? I am guessing probably around the same age since u said u were in college, as I am also. Where do you go?

 

My age should be pretty easy to find out as it's posted everytime I make a post. That said I drive a 2006 GTO, what do you drive?

 

I never said his businesses practices were great. It is apparent that he is a very unethical guy who obviously can tune cars but cannot follow standard business procedures and practices. Sounds like talent wasted by unsavory customer service. I havnt been on this forum so long so I have not heard the stories from those who have dealt with this man and his products. As far as products go though, he has built some great cars, mainly vipers.

AlexWS6, are you also VRAlexander?

 

Still curious as to what you have heard he's done w/ porsches, considering you have obviously heard he does great things.

 

Well I drive one of two cars. Either a 2000 911 Carrera 4 Cabrio, or a 2002 Isuzu Axiom. I am currently looking to buy another car that will be a graduation present, since I am graduating in about a month. What do you think? Either a used E46 M3 (because I dont want a v8 and because 2006 is the last year they are making them) or a fully loaded 2006/2007 G35 Coupe that will ultimately get either a SC or TT kit. Can you think of anything else that would be similar to these? Those are the only two I really like without going in the the range of a Cayman S which I would really like to get.

 

I have "heard", mark that word, heard, that the modifications on TT/GT2's yields good hp and substantial time gains. Thats it. Nothing more, nothing less.

 

I was dead set on a used E46, G35, or STi, ended up w/ a GTO

 

You obviously have never followed any of the past issues with hennessey. John is a crook. he stole people's money, messed up their cars, did not fix them for close to two years and made BS excuses. Since his original viper days, new tuners are putting out faster more reliable TT vipers and give you 100 times the service he does. If you would trust your porsche to Hennessey you should have your porsche taken away from you. He is one of those people who needs to have stuck to something outside of the car world. Sadly the man is still in business, he should have been boycotted completely by every car enthusiast.
