I might not think that 11.1 compression and cast aluminum pistons are ready for boost...

I dont think GM cared if it was ready to boost or not. Im w/ Assassin, that compression and piston setup isnt ready for boost above 5psi lol. And IF this is the production #'s then GM just re-wrote the book - again. The General yet again!

With that ram air scoop it really takes on the shape of the SRT-10 yet again. Don't get wrong...it's sweet, but Dodge had the look first.

I don't think it matters who does it first, only who does it best! And it looks way better than a Viper to me, ergonomics are better and it will be faster.
