I would be looking for exhaust and suspension mods. Also, since we're dealing with forced induction are there any chip tuners available, supercharger upgrades, etc?

Probably a good idea to let folks know wat State you live in as there might be a Tuner there. I'm in North Texas. Quite a few here. LG Motorsports, 21st Century Musclecars and Quality Motorsports just to name a few.

Quality Motorsports, whom I'm very familiar with in Lewisville, Texas works extensively with the LS power plant. (I own an 08 Corvete Z06)

Although Corvettes being their mainstay, they are working with the Caddy V. Owner is picking his own CTS V on Monday 6/29. I'm also in the market for my own V and will definetly use them.

Lokking to get my 09 V lowered about an inch. Don't want to use the Eibach kits. Heard they squeak and are a poor method as they don't allow the magnetic ride do it's thing properly. Hennessy Performance whom I would trust is way too far to travel too. What are people doing to lower their rides?

Eat more pizza... gain more weight... compress suspension naturally. :p

Actually, I think the height is perfect. And I don't have to stop 2 feet short of the curb to prevent it from smashing the front fascia. I would like to upgrade the air intake a bit. K&N kit, and maybe some less restrictive exhaust so I can hear all those ponies yelling out the back.

Im curious if anyone has tried removing the snorkel and using spacers to lift the tank a little like they do on the SV.
Or maybe use 5/8" spacers and flip the snorkel around?

I am familier with 21st Century in Dallas. They are a lingenfelter (sp?) outlet. they also deal with Corvettes but would be a great source on THe CTSV They built a 2001 Corvette Convert for me. Good folks. :)
