I agree with Pre98 on his opinion.
However, also remember this:
This platform was never designed for 1/4 mile times. Severely traction limited, and "a couple of seconds" is the difference between a mildly modified SVT and a turbo'd 3L, as of now.. 400+ horses, makes 2 seconds.. (traction....)
freeway and handling is where this platform is at.. remember that.
