5.4L BOSS 260 with a few mods - 325kW@5800/550Nm@4000rpm (My Beast)
Can't argue with that mate...

That's modified vs stock? That's hardly fair.
How about a stock on stock comparison...
5.4L Boss290 - 290kW @ 5500rpm, 520Nm @ 4500rpm
6.0L GenIV LS2 (VE) - 307kW @ 6000rpm, 550Nm @ 4400rpm
6.0L GenIV LS2 (VZ) - 297kW @ 6000rpm, 530Nm @ 4400rpm
5.7L GenIII LS1 (VTII-VYII) - 300kW @ 6000rpm, 510Nm @ 4800rpm
5.7L GenIII LS1 (VYII) - 285kW @ 5800rpm, 510Nm @ 4800rpm
And every single one of those listed engines powers a HSV to being faster then the FPV GT.
The fact that you need "a few mods," to compete with them shows... well. Plus the 6.2litre GenIV LS3 just came out in the states, 321kW 586Nm in the Corvette. If that's what's coming in 22 days or whatever to HSV, that'll put Ford/FPV another few steps behind. And be as powerful as your car. ;)
