The Vortech V-3 Si centrifugal supercharger is capable of supporting up to 775 HP. The 78% isentropic efficient compressor means cooler running, denser air, and reduced parasitic drive losses. This eliminates that “nose-over” top end power loss found with lesser, roots-style superchargers.
While Cadillac has reinvented the Escalade, the preferred mount of rock stars, pro athletes and Hollywood’s red carpet elite, Hennessey Performance (HPE) has put in overtime developing a supercharger upgrade for its new 6.2-liter direct-injected V8 engine.

If you remember from Meteorology 101, the Fujita scale pegs the strongest tornado as an F5, with winds of 261 to 318 mph, so it’s a fitting name for this next-generation Venom that’s the very definition of power and speed. The F5’s bold, lower-drag […]
