CTS-V vs 21psi STI My cts-v has intake, catback, and a mild cam.
he said he had full bolt ons and 21 psi on the stock turbo.
It was qwker then i expected.
First gear roll at about 35 were back and fourth 1st ,2nd, and 3rd gear , then 4th gear I started to pull away and held it..
Second race race a 50 roll and the sti got a jump on me from the honk and I was at his rear bumper, then finaly again as soon as I hit 4th gear i realed him in and was able to take the lead.
Was one of the qwkest stock turbo STi's ive raced (he said it was stock i took his word )
srry bors no vid this time, left my camera at home
Any one know what type of power a STI is puttin down with full bolt ons and 21psi ?

Yeah 21 is pretty much the max of the stock turbo unless it was an 08 new body style with their larger turbo. Assuming he is tuned or has a mapped ECU with supporting bolt ons he should be between 300-320awhp. Fastest stock turbo STi I've seen was around 11.7 @ 115 w/ meth injection and pretty much all bolt ons, but he's realistically got a low 12 second car @ 110 or so.
Good kill on a quick car. The stock turbo and gearing sucks for top end so it would be interesting to see you guys go from a dig on video.

he could have a stock turbo but have a tons of stuff done to it and might be in the upper 300awhp range, but their gearing wasnt that good in the older ones so they suffered a bit frm roll races

he'd have to have a REALLY aggressive tune to be in the upper 300's on a stock turbo.
usually they are around the low 300's on a mustang with boltons at that psi they weigh almost as much as an fbody lol

The guy I ran had the same injector size from what I remember..
I almost bought a STi becuase its fast and CT weather sucks(snow), but a few of my buddies have them and i just didnt want the same thing ...
The cadi is a **** load of fun to drive, and rides nice and smooth... Only downside is all winter it sits in the garage....
Btw is your camaro red? i think ive seen you at burger king on the pike a few times..
only one ive see around with boost is why i ask .

Nice kill, man. I haven't seen your CTS-V around but it would be fun to get a friendly run in if we bump into each other this Fall (looking to have my car back on the road in the next few weeks after a trans rebuild).
I'm not sure if they are the same motor, but I ran a guy a few times with an Evo 8, cams/full bolt-ons and meth on the stock turbo running about 28psi. He made around 370 at first if I recall. First runs were close when I had a passenger and shifting issue, then I sorted out my issues and showed up solo while he got retuned to about 385 and I walked him pretty good. We were both surprised because those are light cars.

BTW, I know someone who would be a good run for you here in CT. 02 Z28 with a cam and 100 shot. Should be putting down similar hp as you if you're interested. Just finishing a clutch breakin today and tomorrow and I know he's planning on going up to the pike this weekend to test out the new clutch.

I'll take your word for it! I know very little about both. I don't know where I got the idea that they had similar motors but it's always good to learn and I never bothered looking it up.

Ya sti can be beasts
I hope your not talking about a good run for me, maybe sujo cause a f-body with a cam and a 100 shot will eat me lol .
me and my buddies always do some small meets here and there, sometimes tuesday nights cause theres nothing else to do, that how I ran into that 240 i raced.
Id def like to do some runs with you for fun, from your dyno numbers youll prolly win. Im waiting for my headers to come in.
But i want to see how Id do since I almost bought a ls1 camaro after selling my 97 lt1, but then fell in love with the V...

How much does your car weigh? I'm definitly down for a roll or a dig when I pop the tranny back in but I don't think the dig will go too well unless you've got some very sticky tires and a strong clutch. Regardless, I love just running for fun and I'm in love with CTS-Vs, so I'm good for it.
Regardless, I love just running for fun and I'm in love with CTS-Vs, so I'm good for it.i weight about 3700 ~ 3800 + driver , you dyno around 400 with heads and cam ? what are your numbers ?
from a roll I have a chance when i get my headers on, from the line not at all....
