That was probably an STS Turbo Camaro... And those SUCK, Performance wise :P
Yeah its an STS kit, he puts down 490HP to the wheels which is pretty good...
Yes there good for if the car is stock cause i bet hes running 8 psi out of the kit, and probably has a lot more other things still stock in the car :P and Camaros are good for about up to 500hp with everything else being stock, after 500, you have to start dumping money into the drivetrain, and about everything else :P ... i can show you a video of a Camaro SS running 16 psi out of a turbo... puts down about 800 rwhp and is one sick ass ride. Races a 600 rwhp cobra, cobra takes him off the jump, but once the camaro turbo spooled, cobra got passed like it was standing still (Litterally)

I am less than impressed with an STS kit. Look at it this way. A heads/cam/full bolt on LS1 should be putting down at least 430 rwhp, and thats N/A. A 60 hp over that with a turbo is not impressive to me. Granted a stock internal LS1 can only support about 10 psi max .

Actually JD that same night he one of his valvesprings went and the valve ****ed up his #4 piston[:@]... He had been waiting for that for some time now, 160K on that engine he's had a fully built LS1 with 8.5:1 comp. sitting in his garage he was just waiting for that engine to go...
I'll post a video once he has it up and running...

I love listening to the cam on that Saleen. I almost cream myself everytime I listen to it. At least the Civic vs Camaro the Camaro guy didn't make any ricer-like excuses. He had respect for a well built car. Either way all of those cars are fast and would love to be able to own any of them.
