A local customer of ours came by with his CTS-V sedan looking to make more power. The LSA motors in these cars love getting power upgrades and this particular customer had built several cars with us in the past already (C6 A&A supercharged Grand Sport, Saab 9-7X and others). With the CTS-V he was looking to make some pretty good power on 93oct so we went with a modified version of our Stage 4 Performance Package and added in elements like porting the blower and the snout to get some more air in the car. He had also provided us with a ZL1 lid that we modified for AN fittings for a cleaner install.

As you can see, this CTS-V is Opulent Blue Metallic which you don't see too often on these cars but it is an amazing color in person. Before it came to the shop, he had the calipers matched to the car by thepowdercoater.com and had Monster Customs black out all of the chrome exterior pieces.



Modifications Installed:

• VRPD-2 Camshaft Kit
• 2.55/9.1 LPE Pulley Combo w/ Idler Relocation Bracket
• VR 850cc Fuel Injectors
• Nick Williams 102mm TB
• VR Custom Ported Plower and Snout
• VR Heat Exchanger Kit w/High Capacity Coolant Pump
• AlkyControl Dual Nozzle Methanol System
• American Racing Headers 2” Longtube Header System
• AirRaid cold air intake system
• ZL1 Lid w/VR -10AN Fitting Modification
• Custom VR ECU Calibration

The result was taking the strong baseline numbers up 121.81whp / 104.27wtq to 641.95whp / 625.38 wtq!



The gain was exactly what he was looking for out of the build and now this V hits the streets as fast as it looks.
