My Latest Project: Cadillac CTS-V
I picked up my black 6 speed V sedan today. Loving the car so far.
My previous car was a Subaru with too much money sunk into it. I have a modifying problem. I am aware of it...and luckily I have a wife that is ok with it. Custom paint, interior, suspension and motor build later...it became one of the better know Subaru's in the world that was sponsored by Air Lift Performance, JPM Coachworks and TopSpeed Motorsports. It was an awesome project that I really enjoyed, but it was time for a new project to have some fun with. Here is the previous. (I do photography as side work so all of these are my shots as well.) The car put down 417/430 on 93oct.
So onto the V. I have actually wanted one for quite sometime. The goal will be a 650-700whp daily that carts our 2 year old around and I am able to have some fun with. It is a 6 speed manual with Racaro's and there are already some parts ordered.

Send me a PM if you have any questions on parts/mods/ect. Also, the best site for the V is CTSVowners.com
I'm there as well with the same screen name. My V's in my sig and here is a few pics of her. In the Florida summer she put down 565/580 with: LPE 2.38 pulley with 10 bolt hub, modded factory air box with K&N and snorkel to top of brake duct, ID850 injectors, and FasterProms dyno tune. I also added an additional front mount heat exchanger that runs in line with the factory HE filled with distilled water with Redline Water Wetter and did the LPE upgraded HE pump for better circulation. That keeps the IATs lower. I do have a ZR1 cam kit waiting! The cam and re-tune should have me at 600-605 rwhp range. I also did Eibachs with the MPSS tires on black chrome wheels. I did do 295s in the rear for more meat and it fits better on the wider come wheels.
