And if you really wanna get technical,

My old 1995 mazda millenia s came with 15 psi roots type supercharger straight from the factory and made 210 hp from a 2.3 liter v6. 15 psi on forged isn't anything

There's no replacement for Power + traction with lite weight. Displacement doesn't mean what it used to.

Back in the old days going bigger was just about the only way to make more power. Not today.

Couldn't agree with you more...

Thats why the Camaro SS is the wife's car, and mine is a C6 Z06.

So... what exactly are we debating?

An SS boosting 10psi with supporting mods > GT500 650hp.

Are you comparing an aftermarket modded car vs a stock car?? tisk tisk man! I dont disagree, but I must say:

GT500 with 4.0L blower > an SS at 10psi. We can go all day lol. But I see what you mean.

lol I just have no idea what people are debating here...

These guys just mad that GT500 is going to spank the ZL1/Camaro yet again.

If anything we should all be HAPPY that this pony war has started again. Look at the freaking cars we are seeing come out of the FACTORY. 10 years ago who would think a mass produced car would come with 650hp and cost 50-60k!?

It's freaking awesome. I can't wait for the TT ZL1, or the Nitrous GT500 to come from factory

If "competition is good for us" theory was true then GM would of been making year to year improvements to the SS instead of leaving it basically the same since its concept 7 years ago. GM still hasn't improved the SS' performance since its release 3 years ago but it competitor has had two significant waves of improvement the past 3 years.
