Default 2004 CTS-V, St. Louis

As you've guessed, I'm new here. I have a 2004 CTS-V with the regular LS6. I have aspirations for installing twin turbos someday down the road. Nothing insane, just something to give it some more oomph. Plenty of reading to do before that.

Cold Air intake, cat-back exhaust. Nothing major.

Insane would probably be one of those 2500hp monsters NRE is putting out. As for me, I am wanting something around 600-700hp. When the V came out, there were not many cars, especially American ones, that had 400hp. Now they're a dime a dozen. A man's gotta keep up.

Haha. Sorry if I've offended you. This whole project is going to be a multi-year, multi-stage ordeal, I'm sure. I'm planning on a forged rotating assembly, T56 Magnum transmission, and then a couple of turbos once the bottom end and drive train are shored up.
