Remote Tunes and Success at V-Racing Top Gun Invitational!

We have a lot of people ask us how they can get their ATS-V into the Nine Second Club, and the answer is always the same: the Purple Belt Performance Package! ATS-Vs LOVE ethanol and with the fuel system mods in this package you’ll have everything you need to be making upwards of 600 whp and hit the coveted nine second quarter mile time.

Jason from Texas was after those very things so we knew just what he needed. We got him set up at Exodus Performance for a Purple Belt Package installation and our Remote Dyno Tune. We cranked things up to 627 whp and 665 wtq with an absolutely perfect WOT air/fuel ratio as you can see in his dyno chart! But it gets better, a few weeks later Jason met us out at the Cadillac V-Racing Top Gun Invitational in Ennis, Texas to see what his ATS-V could do in the real world. On his very first pass, and first time ever driving the car on the drag strip, he laid down a 9.996 @ 136.17 mph with no weight reduction! And it can only get better from here as Jason gets more seat time with the car and continues to light it up at more track events!

Remote Tapout Tune of the Week!

As we continue to return to warmer weather our Remote Tuning is ramping up across the country and the world. Even more so with our Remote Dyno Tunes, as people are looking to squeeze every bit of safe and reliable power they can out of their ATS-Vs.

We just completed another Remote Dyno at Exodus Performance for Rob. He runs the Purple Belt Performance Package and after tuning he made 642 whp and it remains strong all the way to 7,000 rpm! It’s no wonder our Purple Belt Package is our most popular offering. With the proper mods ATS-Vs LOVE ethanol; the gains are undeniable! So if you’re looking to make your ATS-V a real threat on the street and the track, you know where to find us.

Another Set of Caddy Issues Turbos Putting Down the Power!

Our Caddy Issues turbos just keep flying off the shelves, and it’s no wonder when you see the incredible gains they provide on the dyno, track, and street! Their quality and drivability make this upgrade a no brainer if you’re looking to really turn things up on your own ATS-V.

Our friend Jorge already had a powerful ATS-V with 619 whp. However, he was looking for more so he recently added Caddy Issues turbos and Mace Stage 1 cams and picked up more than 100 whp! These aren’t even turned up all the way yet, since he’s still running OEM head bolts. Jorge has been with the platform for a long time and was one of the first one to hit tens with stock turbos more than three years ago. We’ve come a long way since then, so we can’t wait to see what he’s able to do with these new mods!

Remote Dyno Tune of the Week!

Jason from Majestic Motorsports in North Carolina recently picked up a 2016 ATS-V. With budget mods of intake, fuel cam, spark plugs and exhaust, he made 630 whp on race fuel and ran 10.12 @ 134 mph in the quarter mile.

Jason is also an excellent drag racer, winning both the 10.00 Index race and King of the Hill at the recent Cadillac Attack in Florida. We’re looking forward to working with him more as he continues to add mods to his ATS-V and attends more drag racing events this summer!

Cadillac V-Racing Top Gun Invitational 2022!

This year’s Cadillac V-Racing Top Gun Invitational was a huge success and we want to extend a HUGE thank you to Mike Franks of the Cadillac V-Club for organizing this truly first class event. The Cadillac community is extremely lucky to have someone like him showing this kind of support!

We’re proud to be a major sponsor of this event and we would like to thank all of the sponsors because without them it would not be possible! We would also like to thank the companies in attendance supporting the LF4 community as they continually help to push this platform forward.

For those ATS-Vs in attendance, it was wins all day! The Schmidty tuned ATS-V and V-Sport ran consistent times through the afternoon, Exodus Performance’s Purple Belt ATS-V they built got into the nines on it’s first outing and multiple Tapout ATS-Vs set personal bests!

There were eight Tapout tuned cars in attendance, five of which set personal bests and/or world records. The other three were within 0.05 seconds of their personal bests! Here are some of the highlights from the Tapout team members in attendance:

• Bob C. ran low nines consistently and set the new World Record for the ATS-V 60 foot of 1.294 and new World Record for the quarter mile of 9.351 @ 142.32 mph! His car was losing belts due to a bad pulley bearing in his last runs so we didn’t get to make complete pass using the nitrous oxide, but stay tuned for more exciting things to come from this car!
• Heather S. made her way back into the nines running 9.98 @ 126 mph while getting on the brakes HARD trying not to break out against the 10.00 index. She broke out of course, but it’s hard to be upset running nines in her Purple Belt ATS-V! She was also runner up in the Tapout Tuning V6 Daily Driver Class.
• Jason W. ran 9.996 @ 136.17 mph at full weight on his first pass of the day and this was his very first time driving his car at the track! He also went on to claim the runner up position in the Tapout Tuning V6 Pro Street Class and won the Tapout Tuning V6 Daily Driver Class!
• Scott C. continued working on tuning refinements on our new CT4-V Blackwing and set a new World Record of 11.108 @ 127.21 mph! Current mods are somewhere between our soon to be released Blue and Purple Belt Performance Packages. All details will be released as soon as we finalize a couple more items.
• Spencer B. ran a best time of 10.946 @ 125.59 mph and is continuing to improve his launch technique!
• Jon S. beat his previous personal best of 10.785 running 10.603 @ 131.39 mph!
• Teddy K. made improvements to his ETA throughout the day running a best of 9.42 and winning the Tapout Tuning V6 Pro Street Class!
• Michael F. ran 10.61, which is within 0.01 second of his best ever time!

It was an incredible weekend of racing and we’re always thrilled to be able to sponsor events like this that help to bring the community together and push the platform forward! We’re looking forward to more events and a summer full of wins for the LF4 platform. Stay tuned because we promise you there’s a lot more excitement coming soon!
