While we are waiting for Ford to come up with a new Shelby GT500 let’s check out what the aftermarket scene has to offer in way of an overpowered Mustang. This is the Hennessey Shelby GT350 HPE800, the latest and greatest Mustang by the Texan tuner boasting a total of 808 horsepower and a huge turn of speed.

Available for the GT350 and GT350R Shelby Mustangs, the Hennessey Shelby GT350 HPE800 package features deep mechanical mods including the lowering of the compression rate on the flat-crank V8 so that the tuner can fit a 2.9 liter supercharger with 8 pounds of boost. The result of this is a jump in output from the standard 530 hp to a full 808 bhp @ 7,800 rpm with 657 lb-ft torque @ 4,600 rpm. What those numbers mean in terms of raw performance figures is a 0 to 60 mph time of 3.3 seconds and a quarter-mile time of 10.8 @ 133 mph.
