Thumbs up 809 rwhp CTS-V we built for Bob Johnson is featured in the Aug issue of GM High-Tech!

Really cool, I just got my new issue today. Scott Parker did a great job on it!

August 2008 GM High-Tech Performance Magazine Table Of Contents

ON THE COVER
For this month's cover, Pete Cimino's juiced WS6 smoked the hides as Scott Parker clicked the Canon's shutter. Scott also nailed the shot of the G8 GT by hanging out the back door of our photo car; Mike Galimi snapped Jensen's 1SC-YA Camaro project launching hard.

FIRST TEST: 2008 G8 GT
This quick Pontiac gets drag tested--then we mod it up

ROAD WARRIOR
This street cruiser goes 10s N/A--and packs a big shot just in case

FLYING V
EPP's Procharged CTS-V makes over 800 horses at the wheels on pump gas


PENNSYLVANIA SUNSET
Big spray on a stock-cube street TA makes for 675 horses at the wheels

AMERICA'S QUICKEST G8
Tune Time Performance's GT runs 12.0s with a couple bolt-ons and a shot of nitrous

THE SANDHILLS OPEN ROAD CHALLENGE
Care to run 215 mph on narrow country roads?

PROJECT HEAD PONCHO
Our newest street/strip project car takes command of GM High-Tech's offices

GIMME FASTER--HOLD THE POWER
Finding e.t. in other places

SUSPENDED ANIMATION
Granatelli Motor Sports' 4th-gen F-body suspension put to the test

TRANSPORTATION TRANSFORMATION
'07 Cobalt earns Super Sport nameplate, thanks to Hahn Racecraft turbo system--Part 2 of 3

Thanks everyone! The V is currently in Madman's hands as he is yanking out the 8.8 rear that Bob Johnson had installed last year out on the East Coast, and is installing one of his 9 inch rears. Hopefully this V will be seeing action at the LSX Shootout this year. Bob

Well I guess that answered what I was going to ask about how in the hell that power would go to the ground in a CTSV.

Thanks! Check out the torque in the 2000 to 3000 rpm range, and keep in mind this is on a Mustang Chassis Dyno. Bob
