Re: Displacement vs Forced Induction/ v8/12 vs 4 cyl Then why produce it?
The V8 is no better. 4.7L and 8 Cylinders to produce what Nissan, BMW and many other companies can do with under 4.0L and 6 cylinders? Poor excuse for a performance vehicle. |

Last I read about this year's model, the V6 had twin turbos on it, and very conservatively set. If that is true, any enterprising modder could likely unlock and dial up those turbo's to gain some free performance.
It's also about $10k starting MSRP less than the GT model, and will no doubt have a much more affordable insurance premium (since they pretty much hate anything that even has halfway racing credentials).
Just throwing a few ideas out there.
