The wait for a turbo setup on Ford’s new 6.2L Raptor is over with the completion of Hennessey Performance’s VelociRaptor 600 package for the 2010 – 2011 6.2 Raptor. Remember the teaser start-up video? Well now the truck has been tested, tweaked, dyno’d and driven… and the results are in.
The truck was very consistent during multiple test runs, posting up rear wheel horsepower in the 490 range on 6 psi of boost through a factory exhaust. To amp up the terrifying sound of the truck and to see just how much Ford’s stock muffler was holding the turbos back, a freer-flowing exhaust with Magnaflow muffler was added.
The experiment paid-out huge, allowing the system to flow dramatically better, and in turn, pick up power. After a few teaks to the tune and reigning in the boost levels to a tame 6.5 psi, the VelociRaptor 600 squatted back on its FOX Racing shocks and laid down an impressive 517 rear wheel HP and 525 lb-ft of torque on its 93 octane pump gas.
The 500 rwhp mark had been dispatched with little effort and was well on the mark for our VelociRaptor 600 upgrade’s 622 bhp / 638 lb-ft tq package rating.

But we’re not done yet! Stay tuned for more news about the 6.2L Raptor coming soon, including a new supercharger application now under development for a new form of boosted fury.
