Default STS-V

So I was sitting at a light admiring the sound of my new supercharger and mac mufflers when a black chromed out sts-v pulled up. He looked over at me n rev'ed. I just kept my car quiet until the light turned. As soon as the light turned, we slowly rolled off and then he hit it. I hit it right after and realized how useless first gear is now. Tires just spun like crazy so I short shifted first and slammed into second. All this time, the sts-v didn't even pass me. After I shifted into second though, it was all over. By 100 I put atleast 4 car lengths on him, prob more. After that, the guy refused to look at me and turned off right away embarassed. I love boost.

Late model CTS-Vs are 13.1 cars in the proper hands. He's probably stomped many a stock GT.

That's what I love about the Saleen they can't hear it until it's too late.

Nice kill.

Hahaha thanks, yeah I love how its so quiet just cruising around, people think im stock with mufflers, and then I hit it and they vanish in my rear view

And btw it wasn't a cts-v it was an sts-v, they have 469 hp but weigh 4300lbs

Tuesday night I will post the dyno chart, july first I am getting my dyno tune and hoping for some more power
