this is what the truck has and they say it's putting about 700hp on stock internals!

4.8-6.0L GM Truck Turbo Kit $4995

This kit is complete and includes:

Polished Garrett GT-37 Turbo
Black Powder Coated Inlet Tubes
Ceramic Coating on Hot Parts
42 lb Injectors
3-Core Air to Air Intercooler

Dual 4 into 1 Tubular Mild Steel Headers w/ 1 5/8" primaries, 1/2" Laser Cut Header Flanges, 2 1/4" Cross Over, 3" Down Pipe, Powder Coated Inlet Tubes, All V Band Connections, High Quality Silicone hoses w/ Aircraft Grade SS clamps, Tial 38mm Billet Wastegate, 3-Core Air to Air Intercooler, and complete detailed instructions.

Bolt-on Installation; NO SHEETMETAL CUTTING OR WELDING required! Works with factory electronics.

The Battery, A/C, Power Steering, ABS, etc.. remain in the factory locations, so you could put your car back to stock, very easily at any time.

Note: the 12 sec run was using GT-67 (67mm) turbos.

Never understood people who buy SUVs.... all the more so, putting a turbo setup in such unstable brick. You can see in the last run, how the driver in SUV on the right lane almost loses control of the car by just launching it...

God damn polluting road hazards

He had a horrible launch too .. probably could have shaved at least another .2

Anyway,

I still like the crazy bastards who mod old turbo minivans .. like this 12 sec sleeper:

Any car with high HP loses it a little on the drag strip. And regarding the polluting concerns, I guess you have no plans to mod your cats or go FI in the future, huh?

I was referring to the general instability of high vehicles such as SUVs in general.

That's quite an upgrade in horsepwer on the Escalade for a decent price, but I doubt it would last long turning 12 second quarters.

LOL the Lingenfelter upgrade is prolly bulletproof, but WOW......at $55-$60k U.S. per upgrade!.
I guess if you've got the dough and love your SUV..........

I hope that guy has got some huge brakes on the Escalade, he's going to need them.

All in all pretty stunning display.
