Acceleration, maybe. G's, probably not. Top speed, HAH hell no. You'd need to touch drive ratios, aero, wheels/tires, and brakes for that. The C6 Z06 top speed is 198 mph. Please show me a twin doing anything close to 198 mph. There aren't any unless they're fully built racecars. The automatic's are geared for that tall, but can't handle anywhere near the power required to reach it.
