Twin Turbos and 625 Hp!!!

You know that could be a very good point. By making a special model Vette practically untouchable, it may make it more pallitable(sp?) for other special models to have more than a reg. Vette. Sounds reasonable to me.Originally posted by mgescuro@Nov 13 2003, 04:18 AM

GOOD. That mean XLR-V can have 500+ HP, and Chevy can have their precious title of "performance leader" in GM. <_<
I don't care as long as it has 625hp.Originally posted by mackingu@Nov 13 2003, 12:56 PM
why would the reiteration of the ZL1 been twin turbo'd, and not naturally aspirated like the rest of the GM's SBCs from year's past?
It's not the "nice ring too it" that i'm glad to hear.Originally posted by Ming@Nov 13 2003, 06:46 PM
Besides "twin turbo" just has a nice ring to it.

Yeah but then you could always say "Do you enjoy the smell of burning tires and the sound of an all-american V-8?" :lol: B) :mrt:Originally posted by sceltor@Nov 13 2003, 07:02 PM
Oh, idiot ricers would still find some reason to hate on it, like "Supras were TT first" or something like that. You can't win with ricers. Beat them in a race and their come back is "At least I get better gas mileage!" <_<
Lutz also said that the Z06 and 500 horsepower were not necessarily the limit of the C6, and that they would have other variants if they felt they were needed.5min later... Bob lutz DID say that the Vette would trounce all challengers including the Ford GT, mabye this is what he has up his sleeve. Somebody please verify this, I am simple astounded I knew GM could do something like this, I just douted that they would, this will show EVERYBODY.
and you somehow managed to put NSX in the same sentence as 911 - Viper - and GT? How'd you do it?Originally posted by Ghrankenstein@Nov 14 2003, 05:53 PM
I think a 625 hp ZL-1 would definitely be a "gotta-have" for GT/911/Viper/NSX buyers.
