I know ... I've VERY curious to see the real world numbers, and see what kind of effect tuning will have on the new Camaros .

I offered to bring my '02 to our neighbour's the next time he brings a car home and line them up . I don't think he was keen on the idea? Can't understand why?

well as little as am item gears and headers may be, they do help the car out quite a bit. alot more power from the headers and the gearing being changed really helps with the 1/4 mile and 0-60 time. do the same to the new camaro and im sure it will be a significant improvement also./
