They are pretty quick stock.

What surprises me is how many 3000gt's I've had over 330awhp (pump) and how many local dsm's can't get close to breaking that (pump). I haven't had to many race gas dsm's, but 400 seems to be the "hard mark".
If it wasn't for the damm weight....
The fact is the aftermarket. The 3s was marketed to a different crowd. The "old" dsm crowd has moved on to EVO's now, with a scattered few moving to the 3s camps.
