Is Hennessey Really that bad!

[SPRSNK]

I have absolutely nothing nice to say about Hennessey. I'll leave it at that.

Hennessey's reputation has been shit since back in the 90s when I had my Viper GTS.

Here's the test: Ask them what the benefits are for their cold air intake. Be impressed by big numbers, tell them you're impresssed, and then ask for dyno sheets that substantiate their claims. Retire, have sex with every female on the planet, get repeatedly drunk, die, have a nice funeral, and begin the decomposition process while you wait for those dyno sheets.

I spent some training time with one of their tuners, and after that I knew I would never let them touch anything I have. This was about 2-3 years ago, but they hired idiots that knew nothing about EFI tuning to tune their customers cars.

They have had a bad reputation in every form of vehicle they work on. Just like the other vehicles mentioned here, they have also royally screwed some Nissan GTR owners.

I cannot believe some people still buy into their hype and do business with this company. I really feel like when someone gets screwed by them just saying, "told ya so!", because it happens again and again and again.

In most place they call what you say fraud, false advertising, and flat out stealing. A leopard doesn't change its spots.

I will be the **** and say it..

The type of service you get from them depends on a couple of things:

How deep your pockets are..

If it is going to benefit them ( positive publicity at a large venue, or magazine)

And who you are (famous, well known, etc)

There are two well known Raptors on this forum that have received excellent work/service from Hennessy..

I don't think joe schmo off the street would have received the same level of service from Hennessy..

im sorry you lost me at have sex with every female on earth an get drunk ......i have a friend who well lets say got the joe schmo treatment from them with a gtr couple years back lets just say if we see a booth of theirs at any events we make sure to "express" our deepest feelings an experiences with anyone who ask if they did work to his gtr. It seems recently they have made an effort to better them selves ,however that isnt enough for me to ever have them do more then look at a picture of my truck......i have read on several forums people being denied dyno sheets. At this point if you care enough about your vehicle you should do research before you give it to any "high performance shop" ,an if you still decide to go an have them work on it an get screwed by them well then you got noone to blame but your self

When companies ask for a deposit I tell them I will not give you more than 20%, but I will pay you the day the work is done any balance. If they don't have the capital to work with that then I go somewhere else. These guys chucking down $100k plus before the work is even started should at least have a written contact with teeth. You don't get a dime until it is finished they have the vehicle as collateral.

Well, their facility does look really nice on the outside and what you can see inside from the bay doors. Atleast it did when I was there for TX2k in 2011.
