This week at the 2009 SEMA Show, Chevrolet is showing off five new Camaro concepts, one which is a race-ready, twin-turbocharged V6 from Jay Leno. The Jay Leno Camaro is one of the most radical looking Camaro concepts at SEMA this year.
The new car is powered by a a twin-turbocharged version of the 3.6L direct injected V6 (that comes standard on the Camaro LS and LT models) but the real power comes from a pair of Turbonetics T-3 turbochargers, force-feeding the engine about seven pounds of boost and lifting its horsepower level to about 425 hp. This means that the car has about 40% more power comparing it to the stock version.
Other mechanical changes made to the car include include a larger-capacity Be-Kool radiator and a custom exhaust system, as well as a Centerforce-supplied clutch and pressure plate for the six-speed manual transmission. It also has Brembo six-piston brake package, Pedders coil-over lowering kit, New front fascia with custom fog lamps and integral brake cooling vents and Air extractor-style hood.
