Stopping Power

Increasing this Camaro's output to 650 horsepower without upgrading its brakes would be lunacy. Thankfully, this car's previous wonder has fitted Wilwood disc brakes all round.

Handling

This Camaro isn't just fast in a straight line. Detroit Speed tubular suspension at the front and a 4-link rear setup ensure it's quick when the road gets twisty too.

Laying it Down

Laying down 650 horsepower is no joke. A GM 12 bolt rear end, strange axles, and 3.55 gears with Tru-Trac Positraction helps get this model's 650 horsepower to the road with an element of finesse.
