For those who don't know, the 638 bhp ZR1 is one of the fastest and most powerful production Corvette but according to the "Too much horsepower is never enough" Hennessey Performance Engineering (HPE) revealed today the 705 bhp Z700 upgrade package for the 2010 ZR1. The spectacular amount of power of 705 bhp and 717 lb-ft Torque at 3,200 rpm was obtained with the help of a new supercharger, some ECU tweaking, exhaust and air induction systems. Also, the vehicle uses lightweight carbon fiber wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tires, which reduce rotating weight by nearly 60 lbs, Z-Aero carbon fiber front splitter, canards and rear spoiler which adds over 300 lbs of down force. The interior also received some customization and this includes lightweight Sparco carbon fiber seats, Alcantara steering wheel and a new shift knob. The performances are extraordinary: 0 to 60 mph (96 km/h) in 2.9 seconds; 100 mph (160 km/h) in 6.4 seconds and a quarter mile in 10.6 at 134 mph(215 km/h).
