Speed Inc High Flow Induction CTS-V We had the pleasure to mock up an induction on a CTS-V the other day and we gained a solid 14.7 RWHP from back to back testing. It was pretty hot and humid and we are very pleased with the results. The A/F at the peak HP between the two runs was exactly the same. No tuning, just installation of the induction. With further tweaking and testing I expect better results. We will be trying more products soon

Again, back to back and no tuning.... I'll post the graph soon.

We had a few CTS owners that said otherwise so until we got one on a car ourselsves we wouldnt sell it.
And its not the same as the GTO kit, there are a few differences.

We are developing a divider for both the CTS-V and the GTO. After real-world road testing the open element filter reacts faster to temp changes and when the car is moving the IAT's go down to where they should be for the conditions. The divider will stop some heat from attacking the filter when the car is stopped, however it can not save it from all heat if the car is not running.
The tube is a smooth design at 4" in diameter and even larger in the bends. When doing exhaust and motor work on your LS6 you will gain from the unrestricted air flow. There is no real way to test a cold air or ram air kit on the dyno, the gains are from the unrestriced air flow.

The reason for the no RPM/TQ (asked about on the other board that we do not sponsor and are not registerd on) is that after install and getting all the fitment right (its not the same as the GTO) Jim forgot to hook up the tach lead. That was its best run, the runs after this run had some cat-overtemp going on so it was running richer and hotter.

After looking over my V on delivery I immediately email Speed regarding the CAI and offered to test fit, but got no reply. I'm glad it does fit and even happier it works. Great job folks!

Sorry Chris and urbanski...
We wanted do it with our own hands to make sure it fit 100% and there were no problems. One other customers tried installing it and had problems. There are not alot of local CTSv's.
By the look of that long Adam we need to start making some BMW headers

Does Speed Inc. have any plans on making a support bracket for the air filter? It flops around like no other and hits the belt. Once the car gets hot, the tube settles down. Tighten the clamps all you want, that tube will sink.
