Too bad today a 4cyl can have as much HP if not more than a V8 depending on the build.



There is a replacement for displacement...... it's called BOOST! LOL!



Edit- that is one nice looking Camaro

Most guys who drive cars like that would think it was sacrilege to install a turbo in their car. But yes I agree.

I table the notion that muscle cars like these are actually the original ricers. Why?







Its only trick is that it looks and sounds good. It's a rubbish car in every other way.

Flimsy

Slow

Can't turn

Cramped

No MPGs

Uncomfort

Rust

Not cheap







It literally only looks good, and for that reason, it's just as bad as a mirage with a veilside kit.
