I'm in the minority among those in this thread. The power isn't enough for me.

To be fair, my perception of speed is a bit jaded coming from a 560rwhp C6 Z. My Camaro "feels" slow, although I know it's not.

I'll be adding headers and a X-pipe, partly because I love the sound the LT1 makes with high flow cats and full exhaust; keeping the NPP. I'll be doing a tune to get the most out of it.

A supercharger is in the plan as well. I've run Texas Mile and I have the bug. A supercharger is almost a necessity in that event; at least for my goals.

Some minor cosmetic changes, wider forged wheels, lowering from GM, front splitter and rear deck spoiler from ACS will probably be it.

Yes the stock SS is too much for the street; same could be said for the V6. You can't tap the limits of either on the street. I don't drive like an idiot, but I will take advantage of a clear on ramp from time to time. If I happen to leave work late enough that there's no traffic, I like to stretch 3rd for a quick sprint.

I really do love this car, overall package, might be the best I've owned. But do I plan to "blow" money on it.
