I appreciate all the thoughts in here guys.

the newer V6 camaro have increased hp to 323 but going by memory the torque is still the same at 278.I think still respectible numbers but well short of the SS.Again, IMO, if you aren't going to the track is the extra HP and torque necessary??only you can decide...But I must say the rumble from the SS exhaust is something to behold.Mine has a similar rumble when first started and then its quiet as a mouse.That is the only thing I might change later on(after the warranty periods),is put a performance exhaust on mine.
