Why aren't there any companies tuning the 5th gen Camaro SS "seriously" like they did with the 5.0 stang and the 4th gen SS?
Some may argue that it's because the mustang sells like crazy, the aftermarket is filled with various tuning choices. But, the 4th gen didn't nearly sell as well as the 5th gen, yet there were some companies that seriously tuned them. Whats holding aftermarket tuners from jumping on the 5th gen?
I hope that we see some serious effort put into this new platform, something like the texas speed LS1 4th gen:
The car is an auto and has the following mods:
- Precision Race Components 215 Fully CNC Ported Cylinder Heads
- Magic Stick 4 Camshaft
- F.A.S.T. 92mm Ported Intake
- P.T.M. 95mm Throttle Body
- Texas Speed 100mm MAF
- 1 7/8" KOOKS Headers
And ofcourse some serious weight reduction at ~3900 lbs (~500-600 lbs reduction). Texas Speed say that they later broke this record run, and ran a 9.66 @ 136mph w/ a 1.30 sixty-foot.
