mjhpadi Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Yes and like all Hennessy products you will be able to purchase it for the low reasonable price of $1300.00!!!:bolt: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Livernois Motorsports Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 A guy on another Forum claims Hennessy has or will have in a few days, a tune for the 2013's, using the SCT Tuner. Comments?????? The SCT website shows they support it, however I just spoke to them and they said there wasn't plans to support it at this time. -Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpd1151 Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Hahahaha yea well that person should've ran as fast as they could've in the complete opposite direction when the mere mention of "Hennessy" was uttered outloud. As if there aren't enough issues surrounding their company as it is...... Not to mention their price points are way, WAY super high...... Combine those two factors together and that should've been enough of a cautionary flag to say politely "thanks, but no thanks". Given Rick's response and his connects over at SCT, I'd bargain to say that Hennessy's Staff is blow'n the proverbial smoke up that person's rear end. Their loss if they wanna keep pursuing it IMHO. :doh: I believe fellow EBOF member RedCandySHO also has connects over at SCT to if I'm not mistaken..... maybe he'll chime in as well.

RedCandySHO Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I just checked with SCT. No support yet on the 2013 SHO. They are looking for a 2013 SHO to do some development on if anyway here that has one and is in the Orlando area is interested. Their website lists the 2013 Taurus 3.5L (non SHO / turbo engine), but not the 2013 Taurus 3.5L TT SHO. I mentioned it was a little misleading, so they are going to change the engine descriptions to include a SHO or other designation beside the engine description. Should be resolved later today.

bpd1151 Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Thanks a bunch RCS :hail: We count on members such as yourself (with connects) as well as Vendors such as LMS (& Rick) to provide our members with concrete, definitive answers to dispel any nonsense floating around out there. Thanks to both of you guys for clearing up this matter :thumb: Mike :yo: Sent from my DROID3 using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EcoBrick Bob Posted May 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 :flypig::flypig:This is what the 2013 NEW owner posted... Henne$$ey took him for $$$$$$!:flypig::flypig: "I ordered the MaxBoost 445 package from Hennessey. I'm totally stoked to see how this thing runs after the tune. $3600:flypig::flypig: for the Hennessey kit. Thats the tune, the Corsa catback, intercooler piping, CAI, badging and headrest embroidery." I already questioned him about tuning for the 2013... but he claims they will have an e-mail tune for his SCT Tuner in a couple weeks.:flypig::flypig: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedCandySHO Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 If he can post what strategy his PCM is, I can double check it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gipraw Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 I wonder whose car Hennessey will pull those parts from in order to resell them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea sure, a "couple of weeks" . That's the EXACT SAME THING I was told by someone else supposedly fabricating my catless down pipes. 8 months later, 2 PayPal complaints, a Better Business Bureau complaint, and unable to file anything through the bank my Debit Card is issued through..... And I'm still empty fk'n handed. :mmph: :mad2: :censored: Given that both Rick (from LMS), as well as RedCandySHO (with his SCT contacts) have refuted that persons claims, I'd say he's in for a wait probably as long me.

mjhpadi Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 It's really too bad he didn't join us before plunkin' down the money to Henessey...I really hate to see anyone throw money away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EcoBrick Bob Posted May 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 I hated to be the bearer of bad news, but that's why I started this thread. Also heard rumors that "H" blew up their MKS... But... some of their cars are crazy fast.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhenne4 Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 I am a Hennessey and I wouldn't buy from from them. It's way to much bling and not enough zing. Livernois takes great care of us and our cars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
