Charles, one of our eagle-eyed readers, came across this page on the Hennessey website announcing plans to offer upgrades for the 2010 Ford Taurus SHO. A quick email and a subsequent phone call from Mr. Hennessey himself confirmed that the power-obsessed tuner is hoping to exploit the new SHO's potential later this year.
John, a former first-gen SHO owner himself, was impressed with the new SHO's specs when it was revealed last week, and the hope is that enthusiasts will start looking for modifications once sales begin later this year. At the onset, expect intake and exhaust mods, followed by a boost controller, turbo and intercooler upgrades and possibly some suspension tweaks.
Since Ford is primarily marketing its line of EcoBoost engines towards fuel-conscious consumers, there's little doubt that the automaker left something on the table. We're sure tuners are ready to take up the challenge, and it looks like John and his team will be at the forefront.

You... uh....Ducman69 said:Its Hennessey, but somehow once you get to critical mass its like you can rape a baby seal in the eye socket and upload it to youtube, and it just doesn't seem to matter. Sure, everyone that knows you hates you, yet SOMEONE out in the big world still ends up throwing money at you. Crazy.

If someone has announced that they are going to step up to the plate, then they probably already have a preproduction model to work with.JCJetta said:I'm just curious as to how they plan on "tapping in" to the SHO, considering it hasn't even hit showroom floors yet.
But :thumbup: to EcoBoost tuners. If anyone can step up to ECU tuning like the VW tuners have with their turbo engines, this could be a lot of fun in the future.
