SNL Performance recently strapped their tuned Cadillac CTS-V to the dyno, and the power figures are simply interstellar. In fact, it might be the most power we’ve ever seen from a CTS-V, and we’ve seen a lot. How much? A crazy 1,309 hp to the rear wheels at 5,500 rpm and 1,306.9 lb-ft at 5,050 rpm. That’s not just double from the factory, that’s nearly triple the power. Â In fact, the tuning company claims their CTS-V sedan is the most powerful in the world, even more powerful than the mighty D3 Cadillac Le Monstre.
The SNL Performance crew got real naught with their CTS-V, adding two Precision turbochargers to work alongside the stock Eaton supercharger (otherwise known as twin-charging). To help manage all of that power and heat, an air-to-water intercooler and upgraded transmission were both installed. We’re not sure how fast this thing goes, of if there’s a straightaway long and smooth enough to put this monster to the test.
