why not ditch the pro charger for the magna charger? get rid of the over axle weight and put it on top of the motor like the lsa. yeah you get some heat soak, but get a hood like they obviously did here on the z28, and youll be good.

If and when a more potent version of the 5th Gen Camaro arrives, it should be more than a just a motor change...

So how is the weather?

Great minds think aloud and alike. Do you think Chevrolet is listening?

I'd say pretty close to the CTS-V rating.

I'm pretty sure the LSA intercooler has more core volume than the ls9 does.

Isnt heat soak common with all roots style blowers... i was in a KB GT500 (684 rwhp)and after 2-3 hits the power loss on WOT is very noticeable..

but i dont have to worry about that I went centrifugal. Name: IMG_2368.jpg

I like it!

I'm sure GM has some stuff up their sleeve to have the Z28 look a little different than the SS Camaros. The front facia looks to be somewhat different with the splitter and possible air ducts. There could be a different rear spoiler yet. I would wait to see the final product.

so far only major exterior difference seems to be the hood...

And the fascia is different. Exhaust is different. Wheels look like they'll be different. And that is a lot more than the difference between the LT and SS

WOW!

JusticePete · 09-28-2010, 11:18 PM

The people at GM never thought we would be so hard core as a group to track the 5th Gen at above 150 MPH. The current fascia doesn't like those speeds. It would make sense that the next level Camaro have a fascia that is more track friendly. In my book that means the look will change with the improved function. Everyone will read this as my knowing more than I do. The fascia issue is well known. The conclusion is my own and nothing more.
