Whipple is currently designing a 4.5 liter front inlet race blower for the 2010+ Camaro.

Incorrect. This picture is a 2.9 front inlet specially designed for the COPO. The 4.0 liter is a rear inlet only for the COPO.

I can't even imagine the beautiful music that blower is going to make.

x2!

I need to hear some times and some numbers. What kind of boost and HP/TQ is the 2.9 putting down? RPM's? Did you see in the burn out video how fast and hard that car reved when he hit the gas! I almost pissed myself.
