My bad, it's actually the LSA, which is similar to and based on the LS9...but made for the Camaro ZL1.

FWIW, from what I read, standard boost on the LS9 with 476kw is 10psi. Guessing LSA runs ~5-6psi.

You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

Yep, I called the use of the LS9 :D

Was the obvious choice without building their own engine...

Which is good news, because the same engine appearing in the ZR1 Corvette has 476kw and 819nm (!!!) of torque. HSV pulling their usual detuning tricks methinks...

I reckon that acceleration time will be conservative...unless they have it hooked up to a shitty transmission...cause even 2 tonne luxo barges with 400kw+ are down to 4 seconds for 0-100. In any case, there is no replacement for displacement, so if you got the cash to burn it'll be a better starting point for tuning than the GTE.

inb4 Leigh loses to one on the street :P

Bring it on!! :P

Looks like it's intercooler and pulley time if that hapens!

Previous HSV autos have been sheit, and manuals are just slow for drags compared to a good auto.

Yea ZL1 has the same power as the HSV will have 580hp or whatevs

Get a real engine like the Mustang GT500 :P 440rwkw ftw!

LSA only has 1.9lt supercharger as well (same as mine) whereas the LS9 has 2.3lt supercharger, then you got the difference in heads cams etc. LS9 also has forged internals and LSA doesn't :P

#@ARTZ Are you located in the east side? Might need a polish/wax detail or whatever you want to call it as my paint is stuffed after a trip to Phillip Island.
Got these weird patches all over the car and can't wash it off for some reason...
