I believe some people have swapped ZR1 blowers onto CTS-V's, but I don't think they are going any faster than the 1900 blower cars.
Why?

I'm sure it was a cost thing .. they already had the LSA engine in the cts-v that had already gone through all the testing required ... I know from talking to alot of other camaro owners, they would have loved to see the ZL1 come w/ the LS9 engine

2011-12 GT500's in stock form usually make roughly 460 RWHP / 420 RWTQ.
Yes, it was Milan.
Easier to put the power to the ground, easier on parts with a sticky tire... should go quicker at the track without needing a "driver mod"

How does it compare to your CTS-V when it was stock??
Yeah 580hp cars usually get rolled up by everything on the street, even after they're modified. :rollseyes
this statement makes you retarded.
Thanks for the response. Wow the LSA has a big torque advantage over the 5.4. Really similar numbers hp wise though.
Glad you tossed in "even after modified"
That about sums it up...that car stock....buzzkill
^agreed...nothing worse than a 115-117mph showroom stock car.
How much do these cars cost?? Then how much to modify it to were it will run with a 5.0 GT with just a few mods?? Still gonna be funny watching a GT that is cheaper to buy and mod spank it. But thanks for the true numbers on these slugs. You guys have the know how to make them fast for everybody.
We don't have a CTS-V. All of the CTS-V's I've ran at the track have been customer cars that we modded. I never ran any of them stock.
It's quick from a roll on stock tires... just hard to launch
The car was $59,850.
Depends on what kind of mods you are talking. With a pulley, VAI, and tune you should see 90-100 RWHP gains.
-Rick
Literally yes its cheaper...but really? This is where the arguement comes in about buying a 92 Fox and building it. Gonna be a lot cheaper than that new GT. The person buying this car probably isnt the person looking for bang for the buck in that sense. This logic, or lack of, has been beat to death
Dont forget. The Lingenfelter car with a pulley, ECM flash, Ported intake and a K&N with bigs and littles went 11.0 @ 130.
Let me know the roughly $1500 (estimate from looking at the prices of mods) worth of mods its takes to get a 2011 GT 5.0 to trap 130mph full weight and on the stock exhaust. I have a buddy that is dying to get some stuff.

Oh noez, we got ricer math guy. So with your logic, I could just buy an old Civic, mod it out for a few grand and spank some 5.0 GT's that cost more just stock?
well, obviously your lying to us rick, because camaro5 said that the ZL1 would be able to put down the power, unlike the GT500!
:lol1:
thanks for posting this stuff up here though, what with all the fishy shit being posted on camaro5(ripped up time slips, drag radials = stock, etc.).
Because why spend that kind of money on a car that is less superior to the 2013 gt500? I guess its because I'm not a brand loyalist and I would take whatever car was an all around better bang for the buck, just so happens that the gt500 takes the cake on this one. Before the release of the 2013, the ZL1 would have been my choice since it is better than the 2012 gt500.
You are entitled to your opinion thats for sure. I feel sorry for you that you are waiting on that car, have fun getting yanked by 2013 gt500's :beer:
