Well, Vauxhall must be getting bored after re-badging their HSV's, they have now stuck a blower on the LS2 to give it a bit more poke....397kW and 767Nm!!

HSV wont go down the blown path, they're looking for proper off road track cred with a special "if" they do one.... and besides, they've set-up Walkinshaw Performance to cater to the street doof doof crew.
