I like the concept too. Unfortunately, it's difficult to engineer an emission compliant 590 N/A horsepower engine. The LS3 and 5.0 Coyote can easily get 590 N/A too but they won't be able to pass emission testing.

thats why they gave it 590 horsepower. so you can outrun the cops when they try to pull you over for not having an inspection sticker.
