Thumbs up New Jay Leno Garage Feature: V6 Twin Turbo Camaro, Special Leno Edition


Featured on Camaro5 HOMEPAGE


It's alive.

Remember a few years ago when Jay went to SEMA for the unveiling of his collaboration with GM? Well the Camaro has finally come home to roost! Get a close-up look at the twin-turbo version of the 3.6-liter, 420-hp V6.

Not really, we have several putting down that much or more to the wheels.

Yes, but 400 HP is not a lot considering other V6 turbo builds going on here. Most V6 turbo and SC setups are getting around 400HP to the rear wheels, which is closer to 500 crank HP.

Sweet video by the way!

I thought it was damn funny when he looks at the exhaust and states its running rich....enthusiast V6 owners all know thats perfectly normal for our little engine

I fully expect to see a stock Z28 V6 turbo on Gen 6.

They need to find a way to use that body style, just beautiful. Still looks fresh even after a few years.

lol, trust me the V6 can handle more than what the Leno car is putting out. Some of us should know lol! But I'm happy it's up and running finally after being sidelined for so long. I may have to get that hood for my car.
