A manual is $2000 cheaper and loses less hp through the drivetrain. I think the standard V8 will also have more potential than a supercharged V6.

I understand logic just fine. It's you guys that don't.

Nowhere near worth it. Why pay $2000+ (full exhaust, cai and tune) for about 30rwhp when with an LS1 you can get easily get over 100rwhp for just over $3,500.

Odd that you cars aren't E85 compatible from the factory. I think our commodores have been since late 2011. Mine's a MY12 with the LFX and I can run it on E85.
