Default Henessey performance a built over ten supercharged gm trucks. Where are they?

Talked with Henesseytoday and that's what they had told me. Wondering how tne trucks are running. Never hear much from the owners. I would love to hear their reviews on them.

My guess is they probably run like every other supercharger truck; just fine for what it is. Nothing special about henessey, just a brand name at this point. You could get the blower kit cheaper if you went straight to the manufacturer and installed it yourself. A blower install is no harder than replacing the intake manifold.

Sounds good.

Cool comparison but come on... a tuned blower with full exhaust will always crush a stock truck.

Those things are turds actually. I raced one of the regular cab ones years ago when I was much slower, and even then it was a major let down.

Yea, but most supercharged 5.3s arent that fast either, especially in a comparable cab configuration
