Weld 71Hy7100N72A wheels

Your fuel system is the best one GM offers.  It has more capacity than ZL-1.  As I'm sure you've checked, your friends at Squash can help you gain more if needed.Another great source is Greg at Pace Performance.  He personally has a GXP stick with a 2300 Magnacharger and lots of fuel mods etc. Very well versed in this GM supercharged CTS-V (and other GM vehicles with stock SC). From what I understand it is basically a 1900, with rear air inlet.

Isn't it nice how much easier it is to switch ECM's in GM cars!  Are you going to ask original owner about who tuned vehicle?  Would be worth it to have 2 ECM's.  That way, you could have 2 tunes ready, if you decide to run E-10, or have to.  I am able to switch out ECM's in my G8's in a minute.

Does it have a custom CAI?

As for wheels, how about a wheel spacer that moves the wheel out an inch or whatever you need to clear rear brakes?  You can even get them with changed bolt patterns so you could run Ford bolt pattern on your 120 mm pattern Caddy.  Smaller diameter tire like the 17's you had may not have clearance issues with fender, especially if you can firm up rear so it squats less.  I run 17x9.5" Borbets on my 09'G8 with 275 Hoosier DR's.  They are 48 offset (120-63 mm).  Son gave wheels to me.... came off his Firebird T/A.  He has 2 left. Of course I don't have Brembo Calipers.

I have an Airaid CAI (was on the car) which is supposed to be one of the best.
I've already bought a new ECM and had it changed to stock, no idea who original owner is and not worried about it, cost me $99 for the used ECM and $125 for a GM tech to come to my house and program it to stock.

I'll take a look at the wheel spacer as an option, to see if it can be done.

Those will look AwEsOmE on your blacked out V ... with drag rubber mounted, mmmmmmmm sweet.

Like I said in my e-mail, since the 10" x 17" Weld wheels are 48 offset, the wheel issue for other 17" wheels has to be the thickness and design of the rim that is rubbing on the end of the caliper, not any part of the inside face of the wheel rubbing on the outside face of the Brembo's.

Well for the last 4 years it's weld or borbet drag wheels. I put my 17x8 wheel from the flex and it might fit with the right adapter but will the adapter be ok with 600tq...

Aviation Studs?

[EcoBrick Bob]

Titanium adapter!  I would ask the company who does those. Some people use spacer and replace studs with longer ones and those seem to work.  I agree it isn't the best solution and may not be safe.  That's why pickups have 6 studs and big rigs many more than that!  Are your studs 12mm or 14mm?

Let's see... $10,000,000,000.00 divided by $75, 000.00 is about $133333.34


We should have a national lottery for the 133,000 2014 fully loaded CTS-V's they owe us!... You must be a licensed driver 18 years or older to enter.  Then 4DR could get a spare for a DD and go full race on the one he's building!

AMEN!!! What else can one say!
