Anyone on the board with a CTS-V planning to do Lingenfelter's latest upgrade? They just came out with a 700HP kit, making 623RWHP and 617RWlb-ft, for under $12K:

I just picked my CTS-V Coupe up last thurs and will be sending it to them for the 630hp upgrade for now. Might do the 700HP+ later on

 

That is way over priced for what you get but you are getting the lingenfelter badge. Here is my 09 V without heads.

685/633 uncorrected

 

That's evidently a manual tranny (M6), and very good #'s to boot. Hennessey wants $20K for their V700 kit installed, which has, I believe almost identical parts / mods and I think a little less RWHP / RWTQ.
There's another big name player in the Cadillac CTS-V performance enhancement camp that will produce very similar #'s for maybe a little less $$. Jesse Bubb of Wait4Me Performance in Indiana. I believe that he has built at least a few '09 & up CTS-V's that have pulled 700 RWHp / RWTQ. He has built quite a few over 600 RWHP / RWTQ cars.
Makes you almost want to buy a new CTS-V & head back to Jesse's or Lingenfelter's.
One of the fastest Cads that I know of on Cadillacforums has run a 9.85 at 139 something in Florida. Posted on youtube, I believe.

 

Mine is a auto. Gary I'm the guy you worked with to arrange a race with someone off the grand national board. My car make in the 44x whp stock.

 

Josh:
OK, I had forgotten about that, but I did not mean that the chart that you posted is that of a Manual tranny, but the RWHP & RWTQ #'s from the Lingenfelter post, the 623, 617 #'s.
Did you ever get a GN to play with?
Good to hear from you again. My Cad's still bone stock, unfortunately.

 

We offer a 3 / 36 warranty on our V700 upgrade. My V700 still owns the record for a sedan at the Texas Mile at 185.x mph. Other V's with bigger dyno numbers than my car (635 rw hp) have come to Texas Mile and gone home disappointed.

 

No doubt, John. I had the opportunity to check out the thunder grey '11 CTS-V coupe that you guys did at the Irvine Cars & Coffee a few months back and I was throughly impressed with the coupe and the final #'s.
It is just beyond my financial means unfortunately. If you don't mind me asking, what type of dyno and correction factor was used, what were the #'s at the crank, and what were the final #'s at the Rear. I think that the RWHP was 635, what was the RWTQ?

Congratulations on your cars.
