Defined by its engine upgrade, the HPE550 Camaro is the first supercharged engine kit to be offered from Hennessey. Not only limited to power, Hennessey has also made a list of other upgrades which can comprehensively change almost every aspect of the Camaro.
The engine uses a Hennessey/Magnuson supercharger which raises horsepower to 562 bhp. To accommodate the new system, Hennessey also fit a new air induction system, high-flow injectors and recalibrated engine management. A nice option is the stainless steel exhaust system with long-tube headers and high-flow catalytic converters.
With the ‘Complete’ package, Hennessey fits a rear lip spoiler, front splitter and side rocker panels. An exterior graphics package calls out ‘Hennessey S/C’ on the rear quarter panel and includes stripes on the hood. Further options include HPE550 wheels, Peddler’s coil-over suspension and Brembro Brakes.
