The SWB should start at around 25k with the fuel efficient 2.0 turbo (255+ HP as in the upcoming Regal GS), around 27k for a 3.6 DI (around 310 HP). and top it with a choice of l99 or LS3 (around 33k) strt the LWB at 30k with the 3.6 DI and offer the L76 at around 35k. Just an idea LOL.
Turbocharging only helps fuel economy if you stay off the boost, and that won't happen much in a 4000+ lb car. Better off to just go with a bigger engine.
