I've spent awhile looking around these forums on this subject and the general consensus seems to be that turboing or supercharging the 2005 LS6 CTS-V is difficult because of the lack of space under the hood. Very few people seem to have attempted it and I can't seem to find any kits available for purchase.
Is this correct?
I'm looking to spend about $1-2k in parts in order to get around 100 extra WHP.
Fabrication, labor etc. not an issue. If the hood needs to be modded to fit parts under it then so be it.
Does anyone have a general guide handy for either turboing or supercharging these cars, or know of anyone selling kits or units that are compatible and reasonably priced?
I am considering NOS as there are kits available but maybe selling the car and getting something more moddable before accidentally melting the engine down is a better idea.
Is NOS able to be done reliably on these cars? How risky is it both on wear and tear and the possibility of a fire?
Thanks!
