The new LS7 is pretty close of coming back to the craziness of the big block. I heard w/ TT, those things can easily hit 700WHP. I love the sound of the big block V8 too, but I’m partial to forced induction. A lot of the closed deck iron block I6 from Japan (GT-R and Supra) are hitting 1000WHP. Those things don’t have very good 0-60 due to turbo lag, but they’re total highway monsters.[/quote]

Skyline GTRs/Supras are pretty much a cult car in asia. Plenty of the older generations have been tuned above 1000hp. Hence understandably why the latest skyline available in the U.S. is so coveted.
