2013 Escalade ESV full bolt ons not enough
What's up guys this is my first post here. I currently have a 2013 escalade esv with pacesetter long tubes, custom x pipe exhaust with camaro ss magnaflow mufflers, 90mm LS3 tb, Vararam intake, and a killer tune. I'm in Pennsylvania so the winter blend e85 was in pumps until recently. On trash winter ethanol I ran a 14.38 at 98.5 ish. My torque management is still at 80% as my tuner was afraid I would blow up the trans. I've read most people turn it completely off? I want to join the 100 mph club and crack 13s. What do you guys reccomend? I've been kicking around doing a cam and converter. Converter first as I could install that myself.

I have a gauge for that

Easiest way for you to go a little faster would be to loose some weight and use some smaller/lighter wheels tires at the track. Stuff like the spare tire, jack, and tailgate are easy to loose 200lbs. Its hard to make more power than what youve done without going into the engine.

I already lost the spare tire and third row of seats. From what I've heard the factory 22s are really heavy. I was thinking about getting platinum replica wheels but I'm unsure if those are any heavier/lighter than the stock ones I currently have. I'm not afraid to get into the motor if my transmission won't explode. Can't find any cases of supercharged escalades (slp lingenfelter etc) having any transmission work done

I know its not cheap, but a magancharger setup will get you there. They are hands down the most reliable, and easiest form of boost. A lot less parts and components to have failures over a centrifal blower or turbo(IC piping, Wastegates, Bov/bypass valves.
Cam will probably neat you just enouigh power to get you into the 13's. Plus drivability and fuel mielage will drop drastically with those mods.
MY 06 CCSB has a built tranny, TVS1900 at 9-10psi and runs awesome. Reliable as all hell, and flawless.
I also have a 99 with a Built lq9 6.0...so these opinions are based on experience from both sides of the fence
