Chevy just needs to delete the trash can exhaust and tweak the intake/tune to get to 475 (at least on the manual).

If they wanted to they could get there easily... now the risk would be closing the HP gap with the Z a little too much. Now, granted we don't know the Z's official power rating.

On a side note the SRT8 should be aimed at the Z not the SS. The R/T is aimed at the SS.
