I recently traded my LS4 MCSS for my GXP and while I like my MC I don't think it would have been much of a run. After 60mph the MC kind of falls on it's face. I wish I could have kept both the LS4 will keep up with most any stock cars too 60mph.
I would like to run a stock CTS-V myself. The only race I ever had was last weekend against a 04 GTO he had tune, exh, cai. Mine is still stock and I had a passenger. We went from a 65-70 roll and I slowly pulled a car or two till almost 130. Talked later he said he was up to 115mph. Sorry to hijack.

Hahaha...nah man. Not at all. If I had the bread I would definately do it. I've drooled over those turbo LS4 youtube vids for years. But the reality of it is I would have to peel major dough to get it to run as fast as a CTS-V, G8 GT or GXP, Charger SRT8, etc. That's all I'm sayin. A stock GP is not in the same class....I had that proven to me today.

5.3 LS4's can be modded the same way any other LS-series V8 can be. Infact, they come factory stock with 243 cylinder heads...same heads used on the LS6 & LS2 small blocks, allbeit smaller intake & exhaust valves. Biggest obstacle is the fact they are FWD which we all know is not partial to drag racing, and they lack the displacement us LS-1/2/3 & 6 guys have.
