Default CTS-V Twin Turbo Options

Well just like the post says. What are some of my options for a twin turbo setup in the LS6 CTS-V?

Currently I am thinking the APS TT GTO version set to release end of this month is the closest to a complete kit that MAYBE could be coaxed into the engine bay of the CTS-V.


Any ideas on what and how I could wing this?

We use the ProCharger GTO kits as the starting point for our CTS-V ProCharger kits. There is not nearly as much room for routing the intercooler plumbing up front, but we have found a way to do it. Underneath the car, there is about as much room as there is found in the GTO chassis. I'd say it could work. Bob

If using the maggie you will be hitting a brick wall at about 650fwhp. That is if its a 112 you are using. With 402ci I would stay away from the 112, as it will be like filling a swimming pool with glasses of water insted of truckloads. A 122 wouldn't be a bad idea though.

I think I've decided to begin a 440 LS7/LS7 build.
