I was just checking out the Ligenfelter package for $11k. Seems excessive with ZERO trans or rear end upgrades.

Overpriced, terrible resell value, been known to put their names on cheap Chinese products and label them "Hennessey" for further markup.

I wouldn't let my car anywhere near Hennessey.

So, the power figures may have leaked. There are supposedly 3 power modes.

1 is 757 hp
2 is 815 hp
3 is 1023 hp. 3 requires the 100 octane gas, extra PCM and drag mode.

As much as I would love to see these numbers turn out to be true, I have it on good authority that they aren't (well at least the 1023 figure).
Every major news outlet has been under a legal embargo until tonight at 8:30pm est. This is why none of the big outlets are posting about these numbers. Unless Dodge lifts the embargo early, they are contractually prevented from posting.
On the other hand, should someone truly violate the embargo and announce the official power numbers, the company typically would lift the entire embargo or parts of it so that all of the outlets who followed the rules could run the piece as well.
This happens frequently, but it hasn't happened with the demon.
One example, was the Hellcat Challenger pricing back in 2014. The media got it on a Monday and it was supposed to be kept under wraps for a month or so. However, one outlet published those numbers, at which point the company contacted everyone with the pricing info and told them to go ahead and run them.

I do know one thing.....the official release this evening can't get here fast enough!
