Didn't they used to have a NA camaro running some insane '60 foot time? like 1.1?
LPE is hard to beat dude... I know there's other great shops for much cheaper.. but the numbers I've seen from those guys are

Hi guys,
I was able to get a little info on the setup for you today, here are the basics:
C5 R block
fully forged rotating assembly (ya think???)
stage III LS1 heads (this is a little known secret on high boost cars)
C6 electronics
custom liquid to air intercooler
Garrett GT35R turbos
dry sump oiling system
Everything is custom fabricated, which is part of the reason the cost is so high.
We are planning some top secret testing later this week, and I can't disclose the details, but I will be able to give an E.T and MPH for our friends at LS1tech!
Stay tuned,
Ed

Id really like to just see the setup, I dont own a c6 and have no plans to duplicate it, just want to drool over it.
understand if its not something you can do

.But it'd be nice to be able to buy a TT set up for whats its really worth, more people could have them.
