Boost and nitrous are cool, but there’s something to be said for a powerful naturally aspirated setup, they’re just raw and wicked! This 493 cubic inch bad-dog comes curtsey of KPE Racing and is said to have made 798 hp and 756 lb-ft on this dyno run. While the motor is mean, checkout the link […] More »

I maintain that the CTS-V wagon is the best looking CTS-V model there is. It’s pretty quick too: in stock form, they make just over 550 horsepower. It’s a huge wagon that’s also hugely fast… but that doesn’t mean it can’t be faster. That’s where Lingenfelter comes in. They’ve given the CTS-V a little bit […] More »

Factory forced induction is a thing of beauty. Take for example this Stage 3 ZL1 from Livernois Motorsports that gained 270 hp and 260 lb-ft at the wheels with simple upgrades for total dyno figures of 769 hp and 759 lb-ft at the wheels. Now that’s serious stomp! All the extra sauce comes courtesy of […] More »

I’m not sure what you would call something like TX2k. A festival? A car meet? I guess any place where you have a gathering of super tuned sports cars eager to race is just an event. In addition to having a solid two days of drag racing where big talkers can back up their boasts […] More »

Further proving the stereotype that LS motors fit anywhere, this dude dropped an LQ into a WRX. What’s wilder than that, is that he did it himself for no other reason besides shits and giggles. I barely have the words to describe how much I love this. I mean come on. This is a Subaru with the […] More »

It’s about time we got some classic sheet metal up here. How about a 930 hp Chevy Nova? That’s classic muscle with a decidedly modern, LS -based heart. This run was made at 17 psi on E85. Boost comes from a Garrett GT4788. That snail is capable of up to 1400 hp, but I’m guessing […] More »

And they said you can’t teach an old dog new tricks. I’d say dropping an LS9 into a ’91 Z28 count’s as a new trick. The LS9 is the currently the baddest thing you can get in a GM, so I have no doubt it’ll turn the Camaro into a hellacious ride. They’ve got it […] More »
