The 600 HP Hennessey Velociraptor: Muddin - /TUNED
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 жов 2024
- It's raining in Texas, perfect weather to test Hennessey's 600 horsepower Velociraptor truck. Here's the formula: Start with a 2013 Ford Raptor, and add boost and a disturbingly loud exhaust. Sounds like a win to us. The problem now is, the whole crew wants Matt to buy one.
Hennessey has never built a motor or car in his life! But, he is,was an expert hiring some dope ass wrenches!!! His mech helped me with a new RX7 in 1991, 500hp with bolt on stuff. Hessessey is an awesome cat & a great biz-man, Was happy to see his success!
I my self respect *FORD*
because they've made:
_Eleanor_
_exhaust system_
_Raptor_
*MUCH RESPECT FOR ALL THAT*
wish he would've filmed the wash at the end. Would have been SO satisfying
exactly what i was thinking :D
Kripple Hippo he probably could have made another video of just washing the truck and got a good amount of views lol
The 2017 raptor will never sound like that beast
4 On The Floor The i would take the old one, there going to be cheap coming pretty soon too.
1st Gen,buddy.
The Raptor R does
70 grand out the door? Hell I'll take 2.
I own a Raptor, and it's one of the most versatile vehicles I've ever seen. You can tow with it, haul crap with it, we use it as a camera truck, it has a luxurious interior with all the technology you'd need, it's comfortable for a road trip, cool enough to bring to a car show, and can run the Baja 1000 in completely stock trim with a roll cage and warranty intact. It's heavy, just like all other trucks. Besides that, what's not to like?
I like how he says "good truck" like it's an animal haha.
I live an house away from sealy and has worked out in sealy before. I pass by the Hennessey race track a lot but never knew we had this much awesome near Houston. Thumbs up john Hennessey you make Texans proud. Oh and I helped build that new Carl's Jr on exit 709 on I-10 so that's nice.
+coachdsimpson straight up lol
+coachdsimpson you should do some research on Hennessey. He isnt a good guy. He is a scam artist who has ripped off many many people. Search "John Hennessey scam" on google.
If I were rich I'd buy one. 70k is a shit load of money. But this wouldn't be my daily driver. Just a stock raptor or f150 is good for me
For any
+Zoxur Look at the mileage, you need to be rich to be able to keep this car on the road
dont ask A Flyin’ Miata LS would also do the trick, but understated
@@Anonymous-wu4rw For 70K you get nothing, except a bill for the inevitable lawsuit you've had to file after you find Hennessey has taken your money and truck, stripped it for parts and left it sat up in his shop for 6 months.
SilverFurby what
I live in Texas Dallas county in fact. And what he said at the end is very true, trucks are king in our state. We have places were we can rock climp, but we also have mud holes as well. Taking this to the Desert would be alot of fun, and they aren't that far away.
the 800 upgrade is very expensive, it requires a full engine and transmission rebuild.
I like Matt's delivery. He's a regular guy having fun with irregular toys. Nice job.
why must I be poor
hi
feel ya bro
why is it not avadible in south africa
work hard
Mrpanda it's okay, you can lease one!
I've had mine up North on some Michigan mud roads. He ain't lying about cleaning it for the next four days. Dirt gets in all kinds of places on that damn truck, and it takes at least 3 washes before you stop seeing mud in rinse.
so im pretty sure this truck is a good first truck right?.... right
The Drive video's absolutely nail getting the engine sounds recorded right. Better than top gear I rekon!
can we just get a video that loops the sound of that engine for like 20 minutes?
10 years ago and still a good watch. I daily a 19 raptor but I want a gen 1 as a project truck.
One day.... One day I will own one of those...
I always had a passion for this truck. It's a really bad ass truck and it's easy to take off road or even be on the road.. I love that because you can easily put a truck in 4wd but this truck. It feels comfortable in dirt/mud situations because it had that in mind while being built. Congrats ford.
so matt, between this and the sdhq eco-raptor, which do you like better?
He said this in another video.
Those kits are incredibly expensive and very rare, of the 20 or so Raptors Hennessey had at his shop only one was getting the TT kit, and it was in a million pieces at the time we were there. The supercharged kit is their volume seller.
"...and for 70 grand out the door, how are you gonna do better than this?"
Buy a 1st gen used Raptor for about $25k and add a Procharger for $7k.
Total of about $32k for the same thing.
That's true. I think I might just do that in the future.
Prochargers are the best for the raptors!! Huge power gains all over the band.
Eidrian111 Don’t Prochargers tend to add power more towards the high end of the rev range? Last I checked, Roots/twin-screws were for broad power bands
Gerardo Amaro well yeah but pro chargers are also noticeable on the lower end of the powerband, obviously not as much as the roots but then again they are more economical driving normally cause they are similar in function as turbos.
They have sold a few of them, mostly to the middle east. The 600's outsell the 800's nearly 50-to-1, mainly because the 800 requires a complete engine rebuild.
Lmao 3.6 to the gallon...
***** 1.53 kpl lol not very much. it basically drinks gas like no other!
+Raul Ilea Basically just think of how much you would say is pretty bad mpg/k and divide that by four.
That's less than a Bugatti
It's a truck for fun...If you want mpg get a hybrid
@@marcuscrawford9197 if you have a better tuner you probably can squeeze more power out of that truck and better mileage to boot but this guy just bolt on a bunch of off the shelf pieces on to a truck and call it a day and that's not tuning
no, I did the 1000 back in 2003, and got banged around so much I burst a disc in my spine. No more baja racing for me, after 2 back surgeries before the age of 30.
16,000 for a supercharger and exhaust? Fuck that!
well..
and cutouts, and a trans (mind you a largely expensive trans)
Chris Chandler Don't forget the supercharged stickers....
Chris Chandler for 16k$ i could put a transmission rated to 900 horse in my truck along with a brand new 572 big block putting down 720 hp at the crank, and then throw on a turbo kit and id be pulling well over 600 rwhp and still have the nastiest offroad pickup in town.
im definitely taking everything into account. ive done loads of motor changes from sbc's to bbc's and bbc's to sbc's. but thats saying id lose like 120 horse from the crank and i doubt itd be that much so id still probably have easily over 600. and eat up trucks like the raptor
+Matthew Gordon It's because it's Hennessey.
I'm not really that much of a truck person but here is my opinion on why some people would rather do gasoline: Most stations don't carry diesel, you might have to go out of your way to fill up, the cost to maintain a diesel engine is enough to think twice, when something does go wrong you can't take it to any mechanic, you have to go to a diesel mechanic. Also it is comforting to know that a well-known professional has tuned your truck, not a locally known shop that could have made a mistake.
ram runner. more Baja pedigree. but still love the raptor. ram runner and raptor ftw.
Both good, but the Raptor has outperformed the Ram in multiple tests, so I think it will help build up that pedigree.
no. ram runner is more faster and way more Baja. nuff said.
Nathan Dial That's not what the pros say. They aren't even close.
SO I WOULD KNOW
"More faster and way more Baja." LOL
I like how he makes his "welcome to mullet america" comment, but then gets real friendly with the mud in that truck.
6.2L v8 460hp??? anyone else think thats a little weak??? 660 at the crank 460 at the wheels??? somethings not adding up here
there was no chase car at those speeds, the minivan could never keep up. We do in-car and mounted shots at the same time, then do the chase/tracking shots at a separate time, then flyby shots. The tracking shots are only about 35-40 mph, because that's all the camera car can handle.
If this was mine it would stay dirty, not just because it does look great dirty but because its a truck, to me i dont see why people clean trucks like these, the Raptor is made to go offroad so its supposed to be dirty. It might just be me that thinks that but honnestly i dont care to me a dirty truck is proof of a person using their truck as a TRUCK and not a car in the shape of a truck like unfortunately most people around here do.
100% agreed
In your 2nd sections of on-going sentence "because It's a truck". Wrong, A truck is most typically for hauling and towing. Offroading is for an ATV which Ford has done a fair job of here. I think you should be corrected to "because it's a Raptor". I totally can agree then.
i agree but on the other hand if you don't clean it every so often it will begin to rott its still metal
That acidic mud will teach you to wash your 45K truck hopefully before it's too late.
Not washing it is actually a pretty bad idea. You'd be very impressed the amount of damage mud can cause to a truck.
Hennessy dump exhaust...3 words
"I'M IN LOVE!😍"
How can you do better than the 70000$ velociraptor? A velociraptor with a stickshift!
+Bigpimping Papercut you don't put a stick shift in a truck.
+TheHardcoreLife really?! Wow... You do realize they used to make stick shift manual trucks a lot before people became too stupid to drive manual. You can actually still get stick shift trucks if you factory order them.
+Evan Shaw Thank you! Exactly my thoughts
+ashilling97 Manual>Automatic. Full control. Power when YOU tell the vehicle you need it. No delay like with automatic. It's why every high performance race car has a stick shift or paddle shift instead of an automatic. They're just better. I can't believe people don't get that. You know wants up though!
+ashilling97 *What's up*
The Supercab Raptor is a unique truck. In 2009, Ford stopped selling supercab short bed F150s, and the Raptor is the only truck with that 133" wheelbase available. Its also the only short wheelbase F150 available with the 6.2L engine.
70 grand for a ford ????
O hell no
Got a friend who custom ordered a f350 decked out with red interior, diesel, all the stuff, msrp....$79,000. Whatever happened to the plain old truck to hauls trash, wood, alll that. Feel bad scratching a 79g truck.
if money wasn't a problem, id def go with this beast!
lol this guy is so rich. he talks like 70,000 isn't alot at all.
Isaiah Verdeja it's not bad.. payments would be 800-900ish a month. So normal for cars like that here in la. You must not live here. 70k wont even get you a new Amg. Leases are good too
in all fairness, you can run nearly any production V8 as hard as I did during this test and get poor fuel economy. On the highway, while cruising, the Velociraptor will return 14 mpg. Not great, but not too bad for a gas-powered, supercharged, 6,000 pound brick. The Cadillac CTS-V wagon we tested returned 6 MPG over a FULL WEEK of daily use. Now that's bad.
you are lucky hennessey didnt part out the camera car while you were there, John Hennessey = crook
What did Hennessey do?
do a little internet research
Mike West I looked it up. I know now.
Um, yes, they do. And it's a damn good thing they do because although Lamborghini and Ferrari both make cars that are very nice to drive, they break constantly.
hes talking of $70k like its $700
a nice name for the build. velociraptor. not just a comeback from the jurassic, but also a combination of fords Raptor name and VELOCITY
I keep coming back to this video just to hear that exhaust
This video was posted on my birthday, my ultimate dream car is a Raptor and Hennessey is in Texas which is the state I live in.
Our fates are meant to come as one.
"i told you, the supercharger doesnt change the size of the god damn bed!" hahaha classic
YES! I have an 85 silverado K10 with full lock in 4wd, 400 smallblock engine, overhead intake mainfold edelbrock made, cowl inducted hood for cold air intake with a high rise 4 barrel carb. :) And dual cherry bombs!
already a very powerful truck, $16K in suspension would make it a hell of a lot faster off pavement than motor upgrades.
That boost gauge in the vent was dope af
Different Vehicles for Different terrain..
This would make for one hell of a ranch truck!!
The new transmission isn't a Hennessey product, for 2012+ the Raptor's transmission is electronically controlled with a better torque converter than the 2009-2011 Raptor's. Hennessey doesn't touch it.
Nobody can deny the raptor is one helluva truck.
If I look it up, huh? Damn, that's quite an argument there! I'm convinced.
Raptors are the coolest Pick ups ever :)
maybe (and that's a big maybe) it would perform better off road. But the Raptor is a dual-purpose truck: off-road performance and on-road poise. I have never driven another off-road truck that performs or feels nearly as good as the Raptor does on the pavement. You couldn't possibly build a proper road/dirt setup yourself for less money than the Raptor costs.
This is great video editingfor its time. great stuff
After all the money it's the best sounding, most powerful, and coolest truck on the road.
And Ford is a good brand. It's not "just a ford"
Another great video guys, so wish we could get even the standard Raptor Downunder
I subscribed because my dad just got his raptor made into a velociraptor and so since im getting that truck when he gets tired of it I love ittttttt
That sound is to die for
Just sounds like every truck I've seen worth more than 4k
i love how he is more worried about bending the truck frame then his own life.
Nothing aside from the fact that you can't get them in the US. If you could, I'd buy one from Arctic Trucks all day long.
sure you can. I own a stock Raptor, and have put 30,000 miles on it in the last 2 years. You're saying I can't tell if a truck, that's otherwise identical to one I own and drive every day, has 50% more horsepower?
Next year when people are dumping their 6.2L's for the eco V6 I would feel that is an opportune time to buy a meaty V8. You could probably get one for under $30k and upgrade as you need. This loud exhaust, Delete, LED bars, Engine Tune, and a 100gal tank.
Wow, you said this 3 years ago and couldn't have been more right! I'm actually looking at a few first gens for under 30K to do exactly this! Plus, you know as soon as Ford offers a V8 option in future Raptors you won't be able to give the V6 models away lol.
There are plenty of ICE powered cars that get great gas mileage. Most of them have small, relatively gutless engines combined with aerodynamic efficiency and low weight. This truck has none of those things: monster engine, aerodynamic as a refrigerator, heavy, and huge off-road tires. The ICE engine can be efficient, or it can be powerful, but it's rarely both. But "regardless of how you drive it," really isn't a valid argument.
Having worked at both a Ford and Chevy dealership, I can say the Fords come in for major repairs quite a bit less than the Chevy cars do, quite a bit less than the trucks. But quite a few people at the Chevy dealership seemed to have a pretty bad understanding of how not to destroy your car. And that dealership sold a lot of those electronic rustproofers, so that tells you a lot about the sort of people the sales staff as well as the customers are.
I owned an Escalade in 2007 (not surprisingly identical to the Escalade you can buy today as a 2013 model). It was an unbelievable piece of shit that I sold after 3 months. The fact that GM has the audacity to charge nearly 90 grand for top-trim levels of that thing is an absolute insult to the buying public, and shows you just how stupid many people are.
So Matt, when you hit your 100,000 miles and the warranty runs out, take your truck to Mr. Hennessey. All the best
If only I could get a Raptor that was wheelchair accessible I would be driving that bad boy!
for those particular roads, you could. For some of the roads I've taken my raptor on, no way.
Hennessey makes any car badass. The raptor is an awesome truck regardless. Im not a ford fan but im a huge fan of the raptor.
I am as far from a "truck guy" as one can get. But i can respect this fine piece of engineering and would love you have one in my driveway. It sounds fuckin awesome.
Excellent camerawork!
My buddy and I spent hundreds on gasoline to make some EPIC DUST STORMS while off-roading on free dirt. Come check it out on my channel after you finish this video.
I'm a GM guy, born and raised in them, bought one as my first vehicle and love them till death. However I have to say ford did one hell of a job on this truck, a very well purpose engineered off road vehicle. Ford has made some pretty nice vehicles, mainly the ford GT just like they have made some crap (6.0 powerstroke, biggest pos known to man). However I think with this vehicle ford is showing their capability and improvement as a company.
I'm glad you read a paragraph and assume you know everything,
they are stock. All Raptors have them.
ambassador to mullet america! nice.
The Raptor is assembled in Dearborn, Michigan. The Tundra is assembled in Princeton, Indiana. They are both American.
I don't get it. The Raptor is awesome, and this is an improvement on it. So why are you saying WTF?
I love Matt's Commentaries
6.2 liter? What would a 6.0 LS do with that kind of boost?
the official ambassador to mullet america lmao
Now that is a really nice truck dude I love it dude I really do.
This video was uploaded on my birthday!
If you've ever sat in one or driven one you'd know how its luxurious
I don't like SUV's and trucks, but oh man do I want this thing.
this is the sickest thing ever wish i had a dirt road to rip down
Selling soul for this truck.
Beautiful sound
This is da best truck in HISTORY!!!
Gotta give Ford and SVT its credit...
Feels like I'm watching a Halo video with the Warthog cruising around.
John's warranty is only 1 year 12,000 miles. Buy a Shelby 575hp or a Roush 590hp and still have a full Ford warranty.
ive never been down to texas but if theres tons and tons and tons of roads like that I would live to drive my BAJA with a STi conversion on it, looks like tons of fun, nasty truck wish I had the cash
Matt, great call, when you see someone important @ Ford mention the paddle shifters. I have a 5.0L F150 with the six speed and want them too. 120mph with all terrain tires=blowout soon after.
YOU WERE 20 FRICKIN MINUTES BEHIND MY HOUSE!
He had a clarkson moment when he says good truck
Ambassador to mullet America, awesome!
you guys know they make a roush to right?
