Isn't that Great Lakes Dragway in Wisconsin?

Great vid. Looks like he ran an 11.71 but can't quite make out the mph, it's either 116 or 118 mph?

Impressive,sleeper all the way.11.77 is a great time considering the sluggish launch.Imagine street racing that car in your bolt on LS1 and getting walked.

I hear a turbo during the burnout. Its going to be sweet when Caddy starts putting the LS6 into that car!

Bos, are you sure that's a Buick motor or is it a aftermarket turbo kit?

There was a link to the car in the lounge of www.chitownracing, it's a Turbo GN setup in the car with a 200R4.

Interesting. I know that Lingenfelter's shop was working on a twin-turbo install on a customer's CTS this winter (saw it while I was up there in January). Gotta love a sleeper.

we saw a post before on it, just no pics. Like some one said, you got to have some guts to tear up a car like that and try to put a 3.8 GN Motor in one.


Tony, I dont know of its going to be an LS6 but they do have plans for a V8 CTS in the very near future. This guys swap is a great test of the new platform.
