Ford Taurus SHO by Hennessey Performance

The owner of a 2013MY Ford Taurus SHO asked Hennessey Performance to install the MaxBoost445 Performance Upgrade. Power comes from the same 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost engine but instead of the stock 365 bhp (272 kW) output it now churns 445 bhp (332 kW). It helps the Taurus SHO perform the 0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) sprint in 4.3 seconds and the quarter mile in 12.8 seconds at 109 mph (175 km/h).

The increased output was possible by installing a stainless steel cat-back exhaust system, dual cold-air induction system and also by remapping the engine's ECU. Other modifications include serialized dash and engine plaques, "445 Boost" and "Hennessey" badges, along with embroidered headrests. The tuning kit is offered with a one-year / 12,000-mile limited warranty.

It costs 3.49 lakhs (about 4.940 EUR / 6,400 USD / 4,200 GBP) and completely transforms the looks of the Duster, both inside and out. Up front we notice the bold approach with a trail of LED lights and fog lights. Packing polished side steps, the SUV is wearing a matte black paint and rides on DC's own alloys.

More important changes can be found inside where we see artificial leather, faux wood and a multimedia infotainment system with tilting screens for those sitting in the back. The Duster's center console has been extended to the rear seats which has basically transformed the vehicle into a four seater. Those rear seats are 6-way adjustable, while the left one can be transformed into a bed once the front left seat is folded.
