My CTS-V build

Love the red accents and all the CF... Looking good.  That V already looked pretty good.  With a paint correction it will be way over the top!!...

Wondering... I know your man painted your tail lights...bDoes your paint and body guy do multistep metallics  like Tux black on tail lights?
 
Put the car on the dyno, 600HP on E85.
Car had these mods when I bough it:
AR Headers
2.55 Pulley
Upgraded Heat exchanger
Someone's tune on 91 octane - tune was locked so we can't access it, had to by a new ECM and have it set up for the car.
Car put down 510HP pulling timing.
We added:
ZL1 supercharger lid
ID1300 injectors
Kenne Bell Boost-A-Pump (not turned on yet)
552HP on E10 91 octane with new tune
604HP on E78 (about 1 gallon of E10 91 octane and 10 gallons of E85) with additional timing.
Best part it has a flex fuel sensor on it, car will automatically adjust timing and fuel settings for whatever ethanol content it sees via the sensor. On a long trip and can't find any E85, just put in 91 or 93 and keep driving. :)

With clear coat, no flash so the candy red didn't "pop"

Really great detail work! Very cool!  Now there's some ultra serious wheels to get that 600WHP into forward motion!... and quickly!  :burnout:
 
Getting closer!
They spent 3 days color sanding and buffing the car to get rid of factory orange peel.
I can't wait to take it out!

The black & red theme carries very well throughout the car, and the paint is a mirror finish.  NICE :thumb:
 
:clap2: Looking Good!... that paint is slick as a baby's butt!  Great job.  The wheels look truly awesome mounted and with the red brakes......The detail shows well.
Smooth ride! It's really coming together!  :bow:
 
Man I need to update this thread every once in awhile.
Since these mods were done I've added a cam and lower pulley - netted me a 10.8X@128 MPH pass, car has also gone 11.0@130 - car put down just under 700HP on a local dyno.
This round of mods we're doing:
From 2.55 upper pulley to 2.38 upper pulley (around 10-20P), TFS 255 GenX heads - around 60HP, porting the supercharger, snout - around 10-15 HP, New 4.5" intake and 102mm TB - around 20-30HP and a direct port nitrous setup - 200HP.
To control the whole thing and give me some traction we're adding a ProEFI in a piggyback scenario, it will control 99% of the functionality and give me traction control, wideband closed loop fueling, progress nitrous control, 2 step for launching and a bunch of safety features the stock ECU can't give.
I also broke my stock driver's side motor mount massively so we fixed that and added a limiting bushing (couldn't do a strap).
Shooting for 9's here shortly. :)
I'll post up videos when car is done.

Here's some pics:


TFS heads are milled and being put back on the car. Ordering new longer length push rods today, previous ones on stock heads are way too short!



Nitrous Outlet Solenoids ordered


Had some AZCTSV.org stickers made for our cars!



We put a custom motor limiting bushing in on my car since I toasted the stock mounts - this is before it was welded in





Stock driver's side mount destruction





Squash fuel system going in









 
How much nitrous are you running to get 200 HP?  Anything outside the chassis you haven't taken apart?  Incredible :thumb:
