The aftermarket hot rodders at Callaway have officially announced a supercharged Camaro good for 610 horsepower.
A preview of the Callaway Camaro was released earlier this year, but at the time the horsepower figure given was an even 600. Since then, the company’s tuning wizards have squeezed out an additional 10 horses, giving birth to the Callaway Camaro SC610.
The SC, naturally, refers to the GenThree TVS2300 supercharger bolted to the 6.2-liter V8. Working in conjunction with a cold air intake, reprogrammed engine computer, and a “TripleCooled” intercooler system made up of three individual intercoolers, an additional 155 ponies were added to the stock Camaro V8′s stable of 455. The 610 references not just the horsepower, but the 610 pound-feet of torque on tap.
Cosmetically , the Callaway SC610 adds a carbon fiber engine cover, nine-spoke FlowForged wheels, and numerous examples of Callaway badging throughout. The SC610 treatment will be offered on both coupe and convertibles, with completed cars built at Callaway’s Connecticut shop starting at $54,290. For those who already have a Camaro and are looking for a weekend project, the kit itself can be had for $16,995.
