I just wish they'd have "unplugged" the LF3 a bit more and gave it something like 440hp and 460 or more TQ. Maybe they are keeping some power on the table for the future?

The thing will put down more torque to the rear wheels when tuned than it does stock at the crank. Not saying GM can turn it up nearly that high and keep it to their reliability standards...I realize that. Just saying that is a lot of room to grow lol.
