Exciting News from the Hennessey team! We are thrilled to announce the birth of 'Hennessey Special Operations" (HSO) and its inaugural creation - the Demon 1700. Brace yourselves for a mind-blowing twin-turbo upgrade that sends the legendary 2023 Dodge SRT Demon 170 into a whole new realm of performance.

John wastes no time honing the stock car and showcasing its unmatched factory power on the road. But that's not all - he then reveals his ambitious plans for pushing his personal Demon 170 to even more extreme levels of power with the birth of the HSO Demon 1700.

If taking out the original 1025HP engine and replace it with 1700HP engine why use a new Rare Demon 170. Just use a 2020 Challenger? By the time you pay for a new 170 you could buy a used Challenger and do all the mods to engine and suspension for less cost.... But whatever... Still a great car

[@nightstalker824]

For real...Just do this on a brand new scat pack and save $200k. Doesn't make sense, but it's still badass lol

[@dirtbagliberalsnake5729]

Doesnt matter when you already have the cash

[@0nly1Aries]

Bc it makes it even more rare, since it’s already a 170. Plus the mods

[@hopefloats7573]

I was thinking take a 6 cylinder car. Throw away the drivetrain and put 1700 hp in it. Do it for half the cost of a Demon 170.

[@V10PDTDI]

Was exactly thinking the same or why not put in the new straight six engine that and boost that on a base car shell I don’t think that engine is out yet but I would think they would be able to get early production engine from the manufacturer. Edit the engine is in the Wagonneer.

[@Wargasm54]

A crease in the fabric of space time.

[@advangs]

If you're pulling the drivetrain and all that why not just do it to a regular charger or Challenger and leave the demon 170 alone? What's the point of doing that to a limited edition collector car that looks just like all the other ones except for the VIN number and the specifics that make it a collector?

[@MrDerekRobinson]

Same thing I was thinking. Completely ruining the car by removing and replacing the power plant. I bet you it'll still be an 8 second car 🤣 because even on the track a stock 170 has issues hitting 8s. Add another 700hp and watch its 60ft get even worse.

[@ITRIEDEL]

Yep.

[@BentleyDel]

Exactly right

[@frankmmiii]

Just listening to that engine hum is music to my ears. I have a 2021 Challenger Widebody R/T Scat Pack 392 T/A with the 6-speed manual and I just love hearing that engine roll through the gears.

I'm with you man! I loved my scat challenger 6 speed but kept being told don't drive a mustang 6 speed gt you will sell your challenger! I laughed it off everytime but damn it they were right. Still miss that car but the mustang gave me the corner carving I was looking for!

Cool but not sure of the point. The stock drivetrain makes the 170. If you’re totally replacing it then why spend all that money on a 170 in the first place? That’s like building a race car so you might as well use a roller or a cheaper spec. 🤷🏻‍♂️
