So you thought the Dodge Demon was powerful?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Earlier this month the un-godly power of the 2018 Dodge Demon was revealed. The 2018 spawn of the Hellcat is causing massive waves, and has already been banned from drag tracks<\/a> across the USA.<\/p>\n

The 840HP Demon has shattered the quarter-mile record<\/a>, leading to a letter from the National Hot Rod Association, banning the Demon from the track. In 9.65 seconds, the Demon obliterates a quarter mile at 140 MPH.<\/p>\n

Enter Chevrolet, and their answer to the Demon, ‘The Exorcist.’<\/strong><\/p>\n

Working with Hennessey’s performance, Chevrolet is planning on sending the Dodge Demon straight back to hell. Unleashing 1000 HP from their latest offering, the Camaro is a prime example of muscle cars coming back to life, but in an evolved state.<\/p>\n

Using the 2017 Camaro ZL1 engine, Hennessey goes berserk for the Exorcist upgrade<\/a>. Adding a larger supercharger, better-performing cams and airflow management, stainless headers and ported cylinder heads, the custom-tuned Exorcist engine is insane.<\/p>\n

Looking at the numbers, it seems like the performance of the new Camaro could Chevy owners happy. The standard LT4 V8 puts out a not-too-shabby 650 HP, but how does the Exorcist upgrade perform?<\/p>\n

Hennessey claims the Exorcist will hit 0-60 in less than three seconds, and with a sub-10 quarter mile. Although she’s packing more horses, the Exorcist still pales in comparison, as far as the numbers go.<\/p>\n

Where the Demon wins again is the price tag, as the Exorcist upgrade doubles the cost of the car to $110K, and that’s without the add-ons like 20″ rims and more.<\/p>\n

But who cares about the cost when you can do this?<\/p>\n
