well i got my Z so am ok, but its not just the "out of the box" numbers that matter here. DI is more tuneable by far, mod for mod it will squueze out a little more HP than non DI...once you do they math on a full bolt on and tuned Z, its a very significant.

Cadillac has a DI and NON DI CTS, with that bieng the only diff, offered same year...one makes 304hp 274tq, the non DI make like 264hp and 250ish tq....
