    Default HG Motorsports - 2012 Cadillac Escalade Build - Hennessey Performance Supercharger - Brembo

    Stepping aside from the sports cars, we have started another project for one of our customers.

    This escalade will be built into the ULTIMATE family SUV. The escalade is an excellent vehicle, but does have its 3 downfalls.
    1: Gutless Power
    2: Brakes are too small for the vehicle
    3: Handles like a bus

    We are addressing these downfalls, and improving these vehicle in full spectrum

    This Cadillac will be receiving the following modifications:

    - Hennessey HPE575 Upgrade
    - TVS1900 Supercharger System
    - High Flow Cylinder Heads
    - Hennessey HPE575 Camshaft
    - Stainless Steel Long Tube Headers
    - High Flow Catalytic Converters
    - 160 Degree Thermostat
    - Brembo Big Brake Kit
    - Eibach Sway Bars, Lowering Springs, and Lowering links
    - Chrome trim color matched, and painted matte black
    - And a few other mods along the way


    Stay tuned for the build progress. And as always, your feedback is much appreciated.

    I completely agree with the assessment. With any luck, driving it will be A LOT less like driving a tank.

    make sure you guys get ALL the chrome, including the hard stuff like the inside of the headlights....lets see a COMPLETE de-chroming which you all are more than capable of.

    We are on the fence if we are going to pull those suckers apart. Might do a vinyl overlay on the front to take some of the chrome pop away. Aside from that 99% of the chrome will be gone!
