I heard someone say that 600hp from the factory isn't enough, and maybe they should add a few wings. I did not know that you had to have a degree in engineering and know the words red and neck to post a reply. I guess I missed the memo.

Mustang owners are in denial. 4.6 is a powerless pile of ****. 2 cams, 4 cams wtf ever. Thats why Ford puts a blower on it. Im not gonna read anymore of those posts down there. Idiocy!!

I read the other posts and it made me sick!!! I wanted to join just so I could......Well I found this interesting, and I quote:7 liters supercharged and only 600 hp. YAWN. I would expect a supercharged 7 liters to produce AT LEAST 850 hp. Some guy post this up.

Damn!! Another one:Oh yeah…and I forgot…

GM, if you're listening…600hp just isn't going to cut it. We're looking for more…

And a little more aero work, we're talking about adding Bernoulli Tunnels at the mininum, maybe a few wings…

If you really want to impress overseas GM, you're gonna have to beat the Carrera GT handily at the Ring.
I'm sorry!! I just wanted everyone to see.

Last one:I think GM should focus on refining the interior of the Vette rather than giving it more horse power. The interior of the Z06 is horrible (being in one at our school career fair), a 68k car should not feel so damn cheap inside.

Done.

the reason they need to top 600 hp is becasue the new viper has 600. thats why the z06 had 505 hp instead of 500 like the viper, i wouldnt be surprised to see if the new vette had something like 605 hp.

nothing wrong with an ohc motor but torque is a good thing!!! BTW the fit and finish in a carra gt is not great... it is designed to go fast not be comfortable!
