@BoopSnoot

@@mxx996 Turbo threshold is at what minimum RPM you can expect the turbo to reasonably spool up. So take a Fiat Abarth for example, its turbo threshold is about 2.5K rpm, below which the turbo isn't doing much. However, at say 4K rpm, when going on and off the throttle, you'll see the turbo spools pretty much instantly with almost no lag as its not that large a turbo. The result is that it has a relatively high turbo threshold but low turbo lag.
@willdebeljak7062

@@mxx996 the RPM range of effective boost is the turbo threshold. Turbo lag is the latency between off to on throttle where the turbo has to get back up to speed to create the boost. For threshold think big turbo supra, they dont make any power until like 4500 rpm where they suddenly gain boost pressure and make a lot of power. This is because the turbo used is calibrated to flow more air than a small turbo and needs higher exhaust flow to get to the boost providing speeds. On the contrary the turbo lag doesnt always rely on the size of a turbo as it relates to system pressure. When off throttle the turbo isnt spinning from exhaust gases and needs to accelerate. During this time no boost is being made. When throttle is applied the pressure in the intake system is quickly used and not replaced with boost from the turbo. This gives the feeling of "lag" from when you press the pedal to when the car is making full power. Lag can be limited with close turbo placement to the engine block, like the BMW M5 and M3 engines where they are in the "V" of the V8 and a part of the i6 exhaust manifold respectively. Or active systems like anti-lag. Long explanation but hope I could help.

400-500 hp is easy useable daily driving accelerating from a light without braking traction, getting on to a highway quicker, changing lanes, those small pulls you do when no one’s around. That power range is probably the sweet spot honestly for a daily or weekend car. Now 600hp+ is where you start to get into trouble without trying. To be fair most people get the v8 for the sound and feeling it gives you.

Loving these Camaro vids. I bought a 2.0t last September and absolutely LOVE it. I did a test drive in the 4 cyl, v6, and v8 and the 2.0t was a no brainer. Don't get me wrong - the SS was the most fun to drive. The v6 sucked - has less torque than the 2.0t and I felt like my v6 honda accord could run laps around it. I tested the 2.0t last.... I was sold as soon as I put the pedal down. Not only did I save over $10k compared to the price of the SS, I'm continuing to save on gas (34mph avg highway on cruise, 22 avg in city... and that's because I have a heavy foot) and reduced maintenance costs over time. The 2.0t is an excellent daily driver and a hell of a lot of fun when you can let her open up. 0-60 time blows my mind. Even when you reach 100mph she's still begging for more... couldn't be happier with my purchase.

Great review. I love this car precisely because it will be HATED by Camero fans while being panned/overlooked by those in the hot hatch market. Prime example of an MBA exec making a business case for a car that ultimately nobody will want or buy. I love it! I would have never known about it if it wasn’t for you guys! Thank you! Very honest fair review. I’d consider buying it for the following reasons, ; 1) It’s cheap - only $30K 2) it’s a turbo - gives you that fun extra little pull. 3) It’s a standard/manual transmission. 4) I won’t kill myself by being tempted with 600+ HP of the V8. 5) Great fuel economy. 6) Most importantly however I expect there will be VERY low demand for this vehicle.
@pfitz9346

My problem as a hot hatch guy is the size. The Camaro is a bit of a boat in comparison. If I was to design my dream Camaro I'd get this same car but with the v6 with a twin turbo (please Chevy). If I'm gonna buy a large car I want large car power but I also don't want 600 horsepower. I want something around like 350-400 horsepower at the very most. Honestly though if anyone put out a twin turbo v6 manual with a sport suspension I'd buy it in a heartbeat. If Ford made a mustang with the SHO engine and the performance package id buy it in a heartbeat. Here's to hoping whatever Nissan is working in the replace the decrepit 370z is a hit because other than looking and feeling like a car from a decade ago and being naturally aspirated it's exactly what I'm looking for.

@@MLeeder53 That's actually a misconception, at least in Texas. The Type R's are selling with no manufacturer rebates at full MSRP around here. This is verifiable by doing a TMV search where they put together all the recorded sales for an average, and you see they go for $36,620. No discounts on new means higher resale values on old, but you didn't SAVE any money because you paid full MSRP. GM is the exact opposite, by setting MSRPs that are far above their true sale price in order to make consumers feel like they got a "good deal". A Camaro I4 with the track package by contrast has an average TMV of $26,118 after $1500 in incentives and a selling price not only well below MSRP but well below invoice. This means that used vehicles will sell for cheaper than new ones (duh) but appear to have massive depreciation from MSRP... but nobody pays MSRP. So to compare a $26K version of the Camaro real street price with a $36.5K Civic real street price makes no sense, and would make the Civic seem better than it truly is. After all, the Edmunds TMV for a SS Couple with the track package after incentives is $36,630, almost identical in price to the Type R, and I think we know the Type R would not be able to hang.

@@wykydytron no way man, the suspension and chassis from the new Camaros are definitely an upgrade from the previous model.. not comparing to Lexus mainly the American car options. But what I was pointing out for example the 1LE SS puts better lap times down the Z28.. Z28 also had more HP and it was lighter, but the alpha platform is a machine. Comparing apples to apples when it comes to options. Nothing against your 11 man, but this 1LT would probably do a little better on The track. Edit and if you bought your Lexus brand new it probably was the same price if not a little more than the Camaro when it comes to price relativity comparing what 30k is now compared to 2007

I completely agree with you, but most (generally speaking) internet people swear they are pushing the limits of every car on the street even those with 400-700bhp. That's simply not true 99.9% of the time, the road surface isn't good enough for that, traffic, police, ROOM to run, etc etc etc. I think most people would have far more fun in a car with 180-300bhp and reasonable weight (2500-3200lbs) if they were completely honest with themselves.

It's a difficult car to push to people as they usually associate these bodies (including the Mustang) with v8 soundtracks....but that doesn't make the 4cyl cars wrong.

I myself wouldn't buy one with anything other than a V8 but that is because I would ONLY buy one those cars at all to get a V8 engine. Not that they should only come with that engine, but I wouldn't care if the cars had been made before at all if it wasn't for the engine. The 4cyl engine is a good one, the v6 is actually quite good in these cars, but a car like the amazing GT350 is ONLY amazing to me because I can't get that engine in anything else. If it didn't have that then I don't need to know it exists, but MANY other people DO like the car for itself not just for the engine. It's hard to describe what I'm saying, but think of it like this if it helps. A Miata isn't special because of its engine, it's special because of the car itself whereas I don't care at all about these cars because they're huge, heavy as heck, and don't drive the way I love to drive....but I do care about their engine. Other people just love the cars, and to them these engines are great, and I agree with them.

They are not muscle cars they're pony cars, and honestly they have been SPORTS cars for quite a while now as they actually handle, stop, and in general do everything well instead of just make a bit of power and noise. GM and Ford are surely aware of this which is why they are as they are now. Either way I mean, the Mustang was a secretary car at the beginning but lots of people forget that haha. I don't mean to sound argumentative so I hope you're not reading my words harshly like an internet kid would be saying them (I'm 39 and very much not a kid haha). I'm simply asking the WHY instead of just the answer, know what I mean? There are cars where I believe they should ABSOLUTELY have only one type of engine in them, but I have reasons why I believe it so (specifically anything that's a Mazda RX-? because the engine is literally the name of the car). I'm curious how you feel about the upcoming Corvette (or the last Ford GT) not having the engine people are used to seeing in them? What happens when a car reaches a point that in order to go faster, they HAVE to change things that people assumed would never change?

The RS V6 does 0-60 in 5.0 which is about 0.2 seconds faster than the Type R, but the Type R will handle slightly better. So I think it would be a close comparison.
