GM has built a twin-turbo version of the L-6 engine going into the 9-7X. Tested in a Trailblazer, it has a claimed 400+ HP.
I would have rather seen this than a V8 as the higher output option for the 9-7X. Something about crushed egos at Chevrolet if the 9-7X had more ponies than their Mid-life Crisis Cruiser, i.e. Corvette, is the rumored reason for it not being offered.
