Hoonigan's Hellcat-Powered Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow Is Aiming For 1,000 HP

Hoonigan has been hard at work on a special project: a Hellcat-powered Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow that they aim to utilize as a driftable party vehicle. As seen by their latest video, they might have believed that the basic engine's 707 horsepower was insufficient.

The biggest modification they performed to improve the power was to replace the factory supercharger on the Hellcat engine with a Magnuson upgraded one. Even if they never officially dyno test it in the video, the supercharger's page on Magnuson's website suggests an output of over 1,000 hp (1,014 PS / 746 kW) with the stock fuel system and up to 1,400 hp (1,419 PS / 1,044 kW) with the appropriate supporting adjustments.

They also provided the car with the required handling enhancements so that it could be used in drifting. A tube-frame racing chassis, a stripped-down interior, and four Sparco bucket seats with custom-fabricated mounts, one for each person, were among the features. They completed the looks with a white vinyl wrap and a pair of Rotiform wheels with aerodisc covers once all of the mechanical work was accomplished.
