Let’s say you are rich and famous. You need a spacious vehicle to ferry your kids around, but you also want a powerful engine to show your friends who’s the boss. You really like the Cadillac Escalade, but with only 420 HP, if you park one next to your friend's Mercedes-Benz ML63 AMG and Range Rover Sport, you will get laughed out of the parking lot. What can you do? Just ring up Texas performance specialist, John Hennessey. He will gladly add power to your big SUV!

The HPE550 Performance Package is tailored to GM’s new 6.2L V8 engine. It will boost the total output to 557 HP, and 542 lb-ft of torque! The kit needs to be installed by professionals, because it comes with a 3 year/60,000 km warranty.

To get to those numbers, Hennessey adds a supercharger, an intercooler and complete computer tuning.

The package costs about $16,000, and is available for any truck equipped with the 6.2L engine. So if your company truck needs a little more power, you know who to call…
