I'll bet I could drag that Demon around a track., or in the twistys. My Cadi with the LSA and cold air intake had a screaming supercharger. I do miss it in the LT4 Corvette.

    I never understood why people spend that much money on this car it’s basically all engine you’re paying for but unless you’re taking it to the track you’re very rarely if ever gonna get to use the engines full potential and the people who own these cars and using them to their full potential on the streets creating hazardous conditions on the roads or running from police are the ones you have to thank for these cars being discontinued after the demon170
