Very impressive. With a CAI, 93oct tune and exhaust these will probably put out around 330 crank hp.

I'm also thinking since they tested this V6 @ 25k or so MSRP, that it comes with the performance package. That ups the rear end to a 3.31. So, I would like to see what a base V6 could do too. 5.1sec 0-60 is crazy good compared to the 4.0's 6.9sec.

And remember, they come with a sort of a CAI and dual exhaust stock, so you might not get the same kind of gains out of it as you got from the 4.0.

Just think what it could do with 3.73 gears. I would say around 4.8 seconds.
