What happens when Detroit Speedworks Gets ahold of an Escalade

TURBO ESCALADE..

For those who don't know, Detroit Speedworks, is the same place that did/is still doing RDY2RAC setup with the Centifrigal Supercharger, and Tuning was done by Livernois.

Well they got their hands on an Escalade with 24" rims, about 1200lbs of stereo equipment and make if go FAST..


Here is a full list of mods:

Custom Turbo Kit by Detroit Speedworks
Polished Garrett GT-40 50 trim .58 A/R Turbo
Custom Intercooler
Stainless Bassani 3" Catback Exhaust
Lowered 3" Front, 4" Rear (still has factory air ride)
24x10" GFG Type GF-1 Wheels
Baer Eradispeed 14" Brakes
Kenwood Excelon and Kicker Audio Components
Custom Tuning by Livernois Motorsports

Now keep in mind this is with only 5LBS of boost, wait until they turn it up a little

E.T.
(Stock) 16.8@85mph
(Turbo) 14.2@93.96 @ 5 lbs of boost

Here's a link to the video: Turbo Escalade 14.2 pass
