Just visited the Caddilac web site. Looks like they are soon to release a V series of the CTS, STS and the XLR. 400+ HP with 0-60 4.6 seconds for the CTS-V with 14" rotors and Brembos with a 6 speed manual and an LSD.

For the STS and XLR they are talking a supercharged 440HP Northstar engine.

 

 

in other news, the united states negoiated the louisiana purchase.

 

 

 

I heard BMW is gonna be coming out with M and mercedes with AMG cars. Has anyone heard anything about that?

 

In other news, Caddy is going to be using the 6 liter LS2 in the CTS-V.

 

that will go down as one of the best responses to a thread ever!!

 

 

funniest response ever!

 

 

and did you know that they will be producing 2006 Tl's? With 270Hp and leather interior?

 

Its actually 258HP

 

putting the ls2 in the cts is a mistake, ls6 is def stronger

 

In non-related news, America was discovered today.

 

i pumped gas today

 

 

Did you guys hear about a new invention that "allegedly" allows people to plug a device into a port in a wall and talk? People in the know are speculating it may be called a telephone.

 

i like cheese!

Not from what I have read. Although peak numbers are similar, the LS2 starts its torque sooner and holds it just as long.

 

I have seen so many z06 vs c6 races where they even switched drivers, and its a tossup. Sometimes the LS2 edges out the Z06 and vice versa. Dyno numbers have the LS2 gain tq a little sooner, with the LS6 actually being a stronger top end motor. But the LS2 makes some sweet power when modded. there are mild, cam only LS2's making 420 to the wheels. then there are full header back cars with cam, making closer to 460-80 to the wheels. The LS6 doesnt take to mods as well as the LS2. You have to remember that the LS6 block is essentially the same as a 2001and up LS1 block, just with different heads, manifold, and a GM Hot Cam with softer lobes and more lsa. For about 2500 someone can have an LS6 conversion done to their LS1 powered car and appear to be stock. the LS2 on the other hand has a sick 90mm intake manifold, with a 90 mm throttle body, it has some LS6"style" heads and a less aggressive cam than the LS6, But it makes a lot of its power from its displacement.

 

the best engine for teh CTS-V would be the LS-7

The LS2 is actually a more efficient motor with more 'area under the curve' than the LS6. Gas mileage is also better. I'm only getting 15.5 mpg average in my '05 CTS-V. Right now, there are far more mods for the LS6 version of the CTS-V and most of the gearheads on the V forums like claiming they have a Caddy w/ a ZO6 motor. Hopefully it gets the LS7 in the near future
