oh christ... yes, yes I will admit to it!!!! the srx AWD.. it.. it FITS on the cts.. oh god.. my secret evil project is out. but it does.. the ecm... oh god.. it just recognizes the new tranny .. it just does.. and then.. oh man... the CTX.. my money.. i need MORE money for my insane projects..
-=regains composure=-
ahem.. so anyway. yeah, what kind of stuff do you guys want? cheaper exhaust alternatives? custom systems? save on money on a few things..
bling stuff.. gold grilles? accent packages?
showy stuff.. air ride systems (air baggin) automatic trunk release..

cadillac metaliic scripts for your brake calipers, cost effective brake upgrades..
tinting kits or service.. for tail lights and such..

The CTX is making me excited. Wouldnt ever work with my 6 speed I think. I would want the obvious ECU ehat can be modified, which leads to being aspirated. If someone finds the script everyone on the forum will have it. I want to put badges on the glove box. But at the moment i will settle for windows express that close the first time i press the button.

07-20-06, 05:01 PM
okay, so i will start talking to airride to get a kit speced out for us, probably about 2 grand or so for an airbag kit for our cars. good quality so it can be lowered but feels like normal when inflated and driving around.

looking into a crest or something for robert *i dont think that will work by the way.

for luv, mirror chrome, maybe 2 inches but not a black cadi emblem but white instead, i'll get working on that.

ecu crack and a turbo.
it appears this is now doable, the package from the saab 9-3 aero does bolt on. it is expensive though, the saab has a different intake, its not variable like ours, but it does have a turbo plumbed to it from th factory, that ecu calbration should be fine for our cars since the 2.8L and 3.6L are nearly indentical. so you need the intake plenum, the whole ecm, exhaust, the turbo, and oh yeah the heads. you know a while ago CMS said they were coming out with sodium filled valves? well what really happened is that he read the release on the 9-3 and that it COMES with sodium filled valves.
I and who else I can coral will look up the exact parts list. performance? the 2.8L out of the saab gets 250 hp, so the 3.6L should maybe be 350 or so if done right, I would say 325 conservativley. at least this isnt the 10k package that is currently around.
so get the parts lists, get the parts, then test it out, enough said.
a few gm guys I know said they thought they heard something about a turbo 3.6L coming out eventually anyway.

my other projects:
working with a decal manufacturer for engine cover decal kits, dress up stuff.
already sourced a company that has the cadillac logo and emblem in any color you want for interior pieces. and badges if so desired.

I am taking ideas for anything you want done in billet as the decal guy has a "buddy" that does billet as well.

I fell in love with the chip foose xlr, in homage or becuase i thought it was cool i have been developing a stainless steel roof piece (exterior) just like on the xlr, of course there will be a cut out version for us lucky few with the moon roof. (as a side effect brush stainless will not only look cool from the top, but it will reflect heat a bit)

exhaust. well... i dunno if i should tell you :) but "upgrades for everybody"
joy
fwew, i need to take up a collection.

so as of the car show the new things discussed were:

fog light covers that can snap on and off on a whim.

and I spoke with flyflip about an over the radiator cold air feed that I have been theorizing about.

seems we found a door sil plate made for the SRX that will fit on the CTS just fine.

made a friend at a dealership, I want to list all that can be changed on the cts with a Tech II dealership programmer.


Flyflip has expressed interest in the "get SRX foglights to fit in a CTS" project being resurrected.

thats about it for now.
