Holy shit!
Looks like someone leaked GM's media photos early. I'm kind of surprised we haven't seen the whole car yet.
Dunno for sure about specs, but most of the magazines agree it'll be a 6.2L, and pump out around 650hp. Bob Lutz (GM's VP of product development) claims to have had the car over 200 mph on GM's test track and says the power numbers being tossed around the internet are "on the low side"

The next CTS-V is supposed to be getting a slightly less powerful one called LSA
I just did a quick perusal of the usual news sites. It looks like nobody else has these yet. Most of us saw it here first

The intake passage is underneath the supercharger. The SC expels its charge updward, in between the two water/air intercoolers. The charge air exits the coolers on the outboard edges of the housing, and from there makes a 90* turn downward into passages that lead towards the cylinder heads.
It's a really trick setup.

Well, the LS7 crate is $14,000, and this thing is hand built at the same facility in even more limited numbers, so my guess is....a lot.
