Transcript

If you want a Hellcat killer, just do these exact four modifications. I promise you will destroy anything on the street. Tier foundation is the Cadillac CTSV. To 99% of the population, hearing the word Cadillac immediately makes them think of a slow, boring retirement cruiser that your grandpa drives to the golf worse. But hiding under the hood is an absolute mechanical masterpiece. General Motors dropped in the legendary 6.2 liter supercharged Yes v eight, essentially a Corvette engine pushing 556 horsepower right out of the box, paired perfectly with a reinforced chassis and massive brakes. From the factory, it is a fun daily, but all it needs is a few simple mods to really wake it up. First, throw on a smaller supercharger pulley to instantly ramp up the factory best, then add a high flow cold air intake so you can actually hear that supercharger screaming, drop in a set of long tube headers to let the block breathe, and finish it off with a custom e 85 dyno tune. Four mods. That is it. Suddenly, this comfortable luxury boat mutates into an absolute street menace pushing well over 700 horsepower. Because of that massive supercharger torque, it violently shreds the rear tires off the line, ripping down the highway with zero hesitation. It is basically a supercharged Corvette wearing a grandpa badge. So would you follow this recipe and build an LSA sleeper?
