Yes
I thought the same thing but I think they meant the price was $8k or whatever, not including installation.

You figure he should have smoked the CTSV with those mods.

There is defenitley something wrong with this video. I dont know if its the mods listed arent correct, or the CTS-V is actually not stock, or simply Renntech mods suck.

A longtube header tuned C63 would completely rape a stock CTS-V.

I think stock CTS V puts out similar figures. Might even be torquey-er IIRC.

A bolton C63 will rape a stock Ctsv period. I even beat two of them just tuned.

Stage 2 back then was a tune and headers. That is what this car had. CTS-V was completely stock, but with a manual transmission which is rare. I can't imagine a tune only C63 beating a MANUAL transmission CTS-V that is properly driven. The CTS-V was also doing the no-lift-to-shift feature.

I think you mean manifolds. Headers are something completely different.

The Ctsvs I beat were autos. How much faster are the manual Ctsv? BTW headers on a C63 you gain 3-4mph. Meaning I would trap 123+. A stock manual Ctsv wouldnt have a chance.

Your car must be a freak. This C63 trapped 119mph at the track the next day - maybe he didnt have a good tune. The CTS-V trapped 119.8mph on a lazy launch. I doubt it would trap any faster than that on a perfect run though.
