SS Silv Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 If it's a regular CTS I wouldn't worry. The CTS-V is another story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black2003SS Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 A CTS V with a 100 shot would give you alot to worry about especially on the top end. If its a regualr CTS with a V6, then, yeah, you have nothing to worry about. The V6 in the old body style CTS made like 225-240hp I think. Even with a 100shot of N2O, thats no where near what it would take to run with your truck. A 100 shot on his 02 TA might also give you a run for your money. You are still the same setup as you were when you ran your 12.3 right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RICE EATER Posted April 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 well i dont know much about it yet..its not blown.. but its a stick and its a v8.. i thought they where all charged.. but i guess im wrong.. so its like an ls6 basicly? the only Vs ive seen run at the track where runnin like 13.8 to 14.2 which i though were charged.. so even a 150 shot wouldnt cut it.. and from what ive heard it doesnt hook.... so i dont think he could run me down sence i hook ever time with a 1.67 to 1.72 at the slowest.. i agree with the t/a it might be a better shot.. last time i was at the track i ran a t/a that was sprayin.. i dont know how much tho.. but he couldnt beat me.. but about 20ft past the 1/4 line or so.. he went fly by every time.. he was mph me every time like 115 i belive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sprayed99 Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 actually the cts-v would be the better car for the race.... watch out with tuning and a 150 shot you are going to have your hands full Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbspigskin Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 http://www.internetautoguide.com/car-speci...ts-v/index.html thats a link for factory specs..... so thats what he has to work with then i guess you can guesstimate for what he has added i guess.... They are loaded with luxury stuff i mean its a Caddy. 400 stock hp and he weighs 3850 lbs and he is shifting every 2 seconds with that 6 speed too.... hope you beat him and show him how 50k can get you more than a caddy!!

gbspigskin Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 luxury costs and weighs alot but it doesnt necessarily make you go any faster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
detjoe Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 just pray he leaves his rear at the starting line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sprayed99 Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 here they run mid 11s if its a full bolt on car with a shot on it (150). it doesnt matter if he blows the tires if you guys are going a 1/4 we will catch you. unless he cant drive the damn thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kweber1911 Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 my buddy with his V was telling me the flywheel on those things weigh 70+ lbs. He was also saying that this robbed about 40 horse or so. Just another factor that might affect the outcome. He could be totally wrong too.
