^ I doubt it. Sure it has more power but that isn't everything. Go look at the Nurburgering (whatever) thread. Look at what kind of lap times sedans put up. Check out the '09 Cadillac CTS-V. It is supposed to be "the fastest production sedan ever". It's has 550ish HP and only breaks in to the very high 7's. Where as other pure sports cars with MUCH less power posted better times. There are at least 9 cars there with less than 400HP that posted better times. The Z is pure and when it comes to going fast purity counts.

Also I think a twin turbo USDM motor is a recipe for disaster.
