1,100hp CTS

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Posted by: Gothicaleigh

Lund Performance Cadillac put their supercharged CTS on the Bonneville salt flats for speed testing.

It uses the 3.2L V6 supercharged to 1100hp and hits 197mph at half throttle. So far they were just performing basic tests, but sound like they will return to break a few records after testing is complete.

Any car with anywhere near that much horse is scary. But scary in a 'can I see it again' kind of way...

Did I mention that they are going to be selling this supercharger? hehehe.

The CTS is a very good base for anyone wanting to create a high performance car.

11 second CTS:
I used to have a video of it on a dragstrip, but now I can't find it. Runs 11 seconds without slicks. Here's all I can find now:

LOL. You must be bitter that you didn't get a CTS. Over half of your posts are trolling against it.

It's a 5 speed Getrag manual that comes stock in the CTS. It's good for much more than what the 3.6L puts out. The 3.6L will be receiving a 6 speed version this summer.

Maybe you were thinking of the sport shift automatic?

I have doubts that they used the 3.2L engine for this. What makes you say that? The Oct '03 date?

I think it's a transplanted 4.1L V6 featured in another article which was twin turbo'd and also put out 1100hp.

Because here is a pic of it setting up at the salt flats:

That is obviously the 3.2L V6. The whole reason Lund is doing speed tests on the supercharger is that they plan on marketing it.

Posted by: Gothicaleigh

The supercharger that Lund uses has been released. The 'safe for production' version ups the 3.2L V6 to 340hp and 350 ft. lbs. of torque.

Of course, it's a simple enough mod to open it up to 1100hp for anyone crazy enough to want it (and the pocketbook to repair the resulting wear and tear on the driveline).

Interesting how both these CTS threads got reactivated on the same day.

i have an 04' CTS myself with a 3.6L V-6 but im a little disappointed that a 3.2 was used in this amazing car i only hear about 03 3.2's or 0.5's my caddy needs its shine anyone know of a similair product for use with the 04 3.6? if not im thinking to just drop a V engine in it anyone know the cost of that?

Posted by: daves2000ls

i would imagine that the 6.0 would be friggin expensive, but itd be worth it, lincoln needs to follow the example that bmw and cadillac have set

Posted by: CpeVillStr90

Its an LS6,I believe there around 8 grand for a crate LS6.

Posted by: MarkOfDeath
