I posted a thread about a month ago asking where to take my 2014 GTS for twin turbos. I was directed to Calvo Motorsports. I can't begin to tell you how pleased I am with the work they did. The car produced over 1330 rwhp (and it was hot)on a stock engine. Amazing! Not to mention they beat our contract deadline date by over a week. Antonio would send me about 10 texts a day with pics and progress updates. Sometimes he would send texts around 10 pm because he was still working on the vehicle! He became a friend of mine. And needless to say they blew away my expectations! I would recommend Calvo to anyone!
That being said, the car.... Well lets just say when Antonio took me on the test run I was still pinned to my seat as he blew past 180! I also own a 850 hp Lingenfelter CTS-V which I used to think was fast lol! The Motec and PPG sequential shifter are amazing. The car hooks like crazy even with all the power. I turned the boost down to 3 while I learn to drive it (It goes to level 7). And it's still over 1100 rwhp at the 3 setting! Thanks to Calvo Motorsports and thank you to the members who pointed me in their direction! Fastest F#%*ing thing I've ever been in.

1330 on a stock motor? That's so impressive that I honestly don't believe it. Congrats on the build! What tires can hold that power? 19" R888 or 18" MT's?

Toyo R888. I have them on my CTS-V also and they still spin. But they hold with the Viper? That Motec traction control is out of this world!! I wouldn't have believed it either. It's black with silver stripes. Calvo even powder coated all of the parts to match the car! I will post some pics and videos soon.

Calvo has tried to blow up a stock gen 5 motor that was getting a rebuild to see where the limits were; they made it to 1450whp+. These motors, if sound from the factory, are strong as an ox.
