Uninformed journalist's take on Import vs. Domestic!

[O2BQIK]

This is one of the funniest things I've ever read...check it out! For what it's worth, you don't have to bore cylinders or do any internal engine mods to get 50 hp out of new LS1-powered camaros and firebirds....... hahaha :D

that guy must be on crack...a chip worth 50hp? prolly juss in a 1.8T Audi/VW....hahaha..try addin a chip to civic...lucky for 5hp... he forgot teh cheap hp gains from numerous Type-R,Mugen, Powered by Honda etc..stickers

That's what I'M sayin'! I just love how in my big domestic motor, it takes boring cylinder walls, new pistons, and new valves to make a 50 HP gain, while with imports it apparently just takes a computer chip. LOL!!! :D

Man what are you talking about? you dont need a chip to gain 50hp on an import, all you need is some vinyl across the windshield

All I know is if I had a lotta extra cash kickin' around I'd like to then pick up one of these 35th Anniversary Camaro SS coupes and a Firebird Collector's Edition. I'd just park them side by side in my garage and stare at them each day as they will surely be worth a good buck down the road being limited editions.
