Default 09 CTS-V at New Era Performance!

Mike @ New Era just got done tuning a 09 CTSV and fabricating an intake for it. It made 451rwhp and 437rwtq in stock form and it picked up 34rwhp and 28rwtq with the New Era 09 CTSV intake untuned. After Mike tuned it, it made 505rwhp and 470rwtq.

The intake will be in development. Here are some pictures and a vid of it.

So when you said intake you were just talking about that metal tube leading to the throttle body? When I read intake and saw the gains I was thinking intake manifold. I'm even more impressed by the gains now! 34 rwhp from some metal tubing, wow.

Yeah, I meant the CAI. We were all very impressed with the numbers it put down.

Its an awesome car. I was pretty much drooling all over it. It looks sooo much better in person too. Pictures do not do the car justice at all.

That all it made?... just kidding. That is insane that a car can make that kind of power with just an intake and a tune.

Hey New Era, do you think that the lsa can benefit from a catch can system or not really ? I'm trying to figure out if its good to throw one on and if so how...I had one on my jeep srt previously and it was a peice of cake to throw on and the amount of oil i was preventing from going into the mani was huge.
