You’re saying that for the Gen 1 to have any fighting chance, it has to add an addition 2+L to it’s already “behemoth” (you like that ego stroke don’t you) 6.2L engine.. I get it. What you don’t get is that’s not considered an apples to apples comparison. Stock vs Stock, CAI vs. CAI, FBO vs. FBO would be fair. BUTTT, even with an unfair comparison of SC vs FBO, the Gen 2 still wins...
Also, your buddy first said “well they needed a 70HP tune to beat the Gen 1”... I then showed him not at all with the vid of a stock for stock comparison & the Gen 1 getting spanked. He them said “BuT iTs GoT a TwIn TuRbO!” so put a SC on the 6.2L & then see what happens.. so stock vs. SC?! Really? So I then rebutted with a bolt-on/tuned vs SCd & the outcome was still a Gen 2 winning.
What am I missing here? Do explain. The Gen 1 needs a handicap to win something? You are delirious if you think the Gen 1 is better still...
