    Hennessey Performance just introduced a $3k package for the Focus RS that consists of an air filter, mid pipe, electronic dump valve and a tune. It jacks the power from 350hp to 405hp and the torque from 350 to 425.

    That's a bunch for $3k! :Thumbsup:

    For $5k they will install it and dyno tune it. Also they say they are working on an even more powerful kit.:eek6:

    John Hennessey does some amazing stuff... and he does some stuff that makes me wonder what he's smoking. I don't know why he is messing with a Focus RS. If you are going to push a car beyond it's limits, then make it a car that one-percenters buy, since they can pay for the melt-down... or pay their lawyers to sue him.

    He's a nice guy, and very smart. But, I wouldn't want to own one of his cars, no matter how fast they are, unless I had money to burn.

    Hennessey as a company has run into all kinds of trouble the last fews years with taking deposits for cars/work and never getting them done etc. ALL KINDs of lawsuits pending on the company.. Sure they seem to be able to do great work WHEN they want to..

    At least with this package you don't have to have them put it on. It gets shipped and it's in your hands.
