American auto tuning operation Callaway has introduced a brand new [Camaro](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chevrolet-blazer) that offers next-level performance thanks to forced induction technology.

This particular version of the famous [Chevrolet](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/corvette-z06-70th-anniversary) car is equipped with a bolted GenThree supercharger that is situated inside the hood. Based on a performance package originally developed for the iconic Chevrolet [Corvette](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/e-ray), the GenThree supercharger forces air upwards by virtue of a 2300cc rotor. This has the end impact of adding further extra power to a vehicle that is already equipped with a monstrous 610 horsepower motor.

The vehicle also promises an insane 610 pounds-feet of torque which allows for top-notch control. An over-sized intercooler further boosts power on track rides.

Ultimately, this new Camaro takes an old school approach that values horsepower over fuel economy for pure performance.
