SSC's New Custom Exhaust For The Tuatara Is Insane

The Zpipe design is a true work of art.

carbuzz.com

"This new Zpipe exhaust system was developed in collaboration with Zander Guerra; an LA-based engineer who specializes in exhaust pipes and other components. As you can tell, it has a fairly complex design to it, which SSC explains is not just for show. This configuration boasts a specific geometry that claims to improve on the car's efficiency and performance.
Guerra was originally born in Brooklyn, New York and quickly became an authority in the sphere thanks to his welding talents that sees him traveling across the world for special commissions by exclusive clients. He's able to craft everything from turbochargers to mufflers and whole exhaust systems.

SSC CEO Jerod Shelby is adamant that this new feature will further improve on the brand's hypercar experience. "We are very excited to offer this new option to our Tuatara customers that adds an innovative and custom feature to their hypercar," says Shelby. "It is one more aspect that adds to the identity of the Tuatara and brings a unique presence to the hypercar space. It aligns with our tireless work to make the Tuatara and its variants functional art from top to bottom."
With this exhaust fitted, SSC says the exhaust note you'll hear will be unfiltered and purer than its standard fitment. We don't have any idea of what it'll sound like just yet, but the brand describes it to be cleaner with a balanced pitch."


The levels of engineering genius this guy has and talent to match is very rarely seen. Akin to a sort of Michelangelo in his profession. Pure insanity and regardless of anything else, pure attention to detail.

Jason Castriota is another genius. Captivatingly beautiful.

7722RPM displayed highest to date. It was a tedious process but nevertheless much higher than some "stated". I've done other stuff today but I'll leave it awhile.

SSC Tuatara engine dyno for the track only "Aggressor" package so non road legal. But quite WHY you need 2180hp and 1626lbs/ft of torque is completely beyond me. You absolutely do not!

Vive la difference!

Amazing car!

SSC released the first images on March 24, 2020, one month after the release of Dr. Larry's first Tuatara, and some early images also prove that they are producing the Tuatara, and the designer said early on that there would be a certain number of Tuatara deliveries, but we have only seen one customer car and one prototype so far, what's stopping delivery? Or maybe they are the opposite of Hennessey's plan, which is to test the car at speed run before focusing on delivery. Then they released photos of Striker's and Aggerssor's chassis. Sources say we will see the public unveiling of the Striker this month, but the last time they said it was at Monterey Car Week last year? So we'll see.

World PRODUCTION Records require PRODUCTION. There is absolutely no room for any leeway whatsoever. 1 delivered high speed car that has never been seen running on it's own number plates only 8175A which are manufacturer plates suggests issues with DMV licensing too.

It's absolutely not homologated and isn't certified by the EPA and and any exemptions or extensions are unknown.

John Hennessey's organization has been completely transparent about their efforts including pre phase testing, more than I've ever known. Also they've gone on record many times about homologation. In print.

Recently after finding out what high level high net worth individuals ACTUALLY thought of SSC North America not necessarily the Tuatara they all agreed on one thing, including channel owners on YouTube, they've very seriously f#cked up and most people no longer care and they feel mistruths apparent to them.

Anyway enough. The subject is played out. One car no record. Simple.

Koenigsegg, Czinger and Hennessey left. They've had three years.

I feel for Jason Castriota in all this the most. And I know what he thinks too, silences are more deafening than anything.

I Love the car though more than anyone. It's mismanagement that caused this mess.

A friend of mine had a conversation with Jason at the Shanghai Auto Show and he is a very talented and humble man. What an amazing but pitiable car, I always thought it was the best car, three years saw it fall from grace, but I will continue to follow it.
