Tuner developing turbo V6 Camaro to take on 'Ring time for GT-R

A tuner by the name of East Texas Muscle Cars is fitting a pair of turbos to a 2010 Camaro V6 in a quest to beat the 'Ring time which is currently held by the Nissan GT-R.

The 304hp base V6 Camaro makes for an interesting car to use in their quest to best the GT-R. It will more than likely end up being the best selling version of the car. The reason ETMC chose the car and it's target is most obviously publicity. And publicity drives sales.

So how do they plan to wring out enough power and grip to accomplish their mission? ETMC is going to start with forged rods, crank and pistons in order to handle the estimated 500 horses thanks in large part to twin Squires Turbo Systems turbos. The turbos are remote mounted and bolt up under the car near the exhaust. Handling will be tightened up thanks to harder bushings and Pedders coil-overs, along with a Baer big brake kit and lightweight forged 20-inch wheels.

To further make it's point, ETMC will fly out a friend's stock GT-R to race the Camaro simultaneously. The car is set to debut at 2009's SEMA show. Let the games begin.

Video: Bugatti Veyron takes on Nissan GT-R

Fresh off it's victory on Top Gear vs. a McLaren F1, the Bugatti Veyron is apparently setting it's sights on taking out other supercars. Namely, the Nissan GT-R. If you think that this may be a mismatch of sorts for Godzilla, you may be right.

While the GT-R is a darn fast car in it's own right, when you double the horsepower and stuff it in a car that costs roughly ten times as much, it just isn't that fair. The Nissan is fast, the Bugatti is ridiculously fast. Watch the video to see just how much faster the Bugatti is.
