Yes turbo 4 and V6 1LEs both exist. I'll let someone else comment on the model years since I'm not sure about that.

Did they ever pair up a v61LE against a 2.01LE. Would be interested how that played out.
Wonder if they fixed the turbo issues. |

I have a V6 1LE and I got the chance to go head-to-head against a Turbo 4 1LE at a Track Night in America event. To my surprise, I was easily able to pass the Turbo 4 on the straightaway. I didn't think there would be so much difference in acceleration, given the 4's lighter weight and broad torque curve. But my 6 was significantly quicker.
I think there would be less advantage, or no advantage for the V6, at an autocross. As expected, the turbo 4 doesn't make interesting noise. OTOH, the V6, with variable exhaust in Sport or Track mode, really rips and sounds great at high rpms. I've received compliments. So, the sounds the V6 makes are another good reason to get it. These cars are a great value for track and autocross, and are fun to drive on the street. They never caught on like the Miata and the Toyota/Subaru twins, but they're a great alternative. |

Did the factory make modifications to the V6
Engine or just the suspension? If it wasnt for The turbos burning up i think i would have bought The 4 banger because its light. |

2.0t is an excellent car. The real issue is finding one, and when you do you have to be quick. They sell fast. |

I was trying to find a 3LT turbo 1LE for over a year and a half. A lot of the 3LTs I looked at were listed for months. Lower level trim does sell quick.
The the 3LT I bought was listed for a month before I found it. |

LOL! No, I knew that Chevy had a 1LE package availabke for Camaros with both motors and that those packages were discontinued about the time I purchased my SS 1LE. I found the article I referenced in a quick Google search.

'Their [tuning] goals were twofold: Increase boost while adding anti-lag. Sympathy for the mechanicals wasn’t a high priority. “This is a race car part,” Shaun told us of the tune. “It’s mean to the turbo.”' |
