He didn't really give details on any specs or pricing as i am sure he is not ready to release that info yet. He only confirmed that a kit is coming and could see it's release in the spring.

Hmm, AGP turbo has made 1000 whp on the 5th gens with a stock bottom. Pardon my skepticism but I think someone really doesn't know what challenges they are getting into. The LT1 motor has a lot of complexities that no one ran into on the Gen 5 Camaro. That is why very, very few of these cars are making over 700 whp. Mine does and the only change in the motor is the LT4 mechanical fuel pump and injectors.
Hellion makes turbo systems that are pretty to look at but they typically don't make as much power as some of the other turbo systems on the market. This is because they place the turbos high in the engine bay which from basic physics is not the most efficient place to put them. I don't expect them to change their modus operandi for this kit. I suspect they are looking at the relatively low horsepower numbers the gen 6 forced induction cars are posting compared to gen 5 but these motors are not even close to equal. Read some of the other discussions on forced induction about LT1 fuel and compression ratio and you will get a better understanding of the limitations of the 6th gen motors. Eventually Hellion will figure this out. They make good kits but I'm fairly certain they are not going to set any power records in the 6th gen.
