But you said before that you thought a modified 86 would be faster?

Considering the drivers are equal, a boosted fa20 on OEM internals is no match for a healthy LT1 and magnetic shocks in my opinion.

A huge difference is that the Camaro has a manual transmission, and a great NA V8 and not a TT V6. Probably a lot more responsive and engaging.
