Default 05 CTS-V Stockish and Nitrous :)

I was reading the post about this section sucking *** so I'm going to post up. I'm new to the area, but here's what I bring.

I have a 2005 CTS-V:

-with a plate kit and a NANO kit
-200 jets in it right now and it's making about
-550 at the wheels on spray, 350 off
-I am running a 255 and Kenne Bell boost a pump since the 255 wasn't enough at about 500 at the wheels
-I am running a Monster Stage 3 and stock trans
-Just about everything else is stock

Next:

-Gforce axles
-Springs and shocks (want to lower an inch or so)
-MAP trailing arms
-Custom wheels and huge meets

My license plate reads HICARBON.

I wouldn't mind going to a meet or event sometime.

That is all.

I'm thinking 295 at the moment. I have 275 Invo's that do a pretty damn good job right now...getting off the line kills me. How do you like running 295's?

Thanks.


I haven't decided between MAP and Creative Steel, but I'm still a few months from doing that and custom wheels. You would recommend Creative Steel it sounds like?
