Nothing to exciting yet, so I figured I would combine a bunch of small mods into one spring post. Almost the 1 year mark as well.

Yeah it should give me a couple tenths. The cat back I am looking at actually takes ~35lbs off the car according to forum members.

That is super impressive. So what all is done to the car in terms of mods? (sorry I have not been keeping up on the CTS-V stuff).

Man this really makes me want a CTS-V wagon.

Thanks. I think one with some bolt-ons, pulley and a tune would probably be enough for me. But that is fucking awesome for a car that is not light to begin with and can fit a couple car seats for the kiddies to boot.
