    Saturdays are best for me as well. I never took my summers off so I'm ready to go.

    The Blackwing Spotting Thread

    We should try and meet up at one of the C&Cs. Not sure what’s going on with OBI after last year. Let me know if you hear of anything.

    Weather has been great ok LI. Where y’all at? I know there’s a Rift 5BW around Huntington.

    Does your BW go fully into every gear when the engine is off?

    My reverse locks out within a few seconds of turning it off. 5BW here so maybe different than 4BW.

    Very odd, very specific issue with break in period (more of a PSA for anyone with less than 500 miles)

    +1 for King O’Rourke. Bought my 5BW for sticker. Placed order Aug ‘23 and it was delivered Nov ‘23. Regarding break-in, who can wait 1500 miles? I changed my engine oil at 500 miles and got on it here and there when warmed up. Just changed engine oil and diff fluid at 1500 miles and am...

    Does your BW go fully into every gear when the engine is off?

    How do you get yours into reverse with the car off?

    Quirks of my 5BW

    Mine is off when I start the car. I need to turn it on for it to work. I’ve noticed it blip for some gears when off if I’ve been coasting in neutral then shift into a gear.

    R33 GTR as 4BW companion?

    Don't do it for the investment. As much as some used cars seem to have appreciated over the last decade, I wouldn't consider them good investments. Get the R33 because you want it and it's badass!

    Retrofit carbon ceramic brakes?

    I'm curious about swapping my CCBs for steel rotors. Does the programming really make that much of a difference?

    Blackwing Maintenance Regimen

    I just checked the filters I have in the garage. I have a PF64 from Amazon and a PF63 for a Yukon XL and both have the same look as the PF64 on the right hand side. My guess is the design changed. You have two different part numbers there as well so that only helps to support the hypothesis that...

    My quick BW story up until now...

    King O’Rourke in Smithtown was good to me. Placed my order in Aug ‘23 and took delivery Nov ‘23. When I was next in line and they had an allocation they called me to say what was constrained and if I was open to changes. Only constraints for me were CF seat backs and black nameplates so those...

    Would you recommend this as a "family Corvette"?

    +1 for 5BW and dual car seats. I have one forward facing and one rear facing. My only gripe is that my older daughter, 3 yo, likes to kick the back of my seat. We were able to fit them and all of their Xmas gifts from the grandparents this past December. Stroller fits as well when you don’t have...

    CT5-V Blackwing Performance Mods and Numbers

    Was the E62 on a flex fuel sensor or do you have to change the tune to adjust?

    HPTuners can unlock these ECUs and TCMs. Time to see who can make the most power.

    Blackwing Constraints Tracker

    You’ll figure out the MT in this car real quick. The clutch has good feedback regarding the bite point and the engine has so much torque you win a medal if you’re able to stall the car.

    What made you choose a Blackwing and what else did you consider?

    I came from a C8 RS6 to my '24 5BW 6mt. The RS6 was very nice inside and had some neat features that you can get with the a10 as well such as the lane keep and radar cruise. The RS6 was fast but not as fun. Punch it in the RS6 and you don't have to worry about traction. The 5BW, ha, good one...

    CT5-V Blackwing Performance Mods and Numbers

    Pretty sure that’s the build sheet for the 5th gen he puts on the dyno next. It would be weird for a LT4 to have ID1050 injectors. edit: autocorrect fix
