Twin Turbo 3.6 shown in the Jay Leno Camaro put down 425hp.
I think GM was a little surprised at Ford's inititiave to turbocharge everything.

I will say this. Every major powertrains engineer that works on the current Ecotec Family 0 and 1 engines (going from 1.2 to 2.4 liters) and GM's High Features V6's (2.8, 3.0, 3.6) all originated from Gen III and/or Gen IV V8 design and development. The current Chief Engineer on the 2.0T series engines came directly out of SBC development.
