Dumb question incoming! The owner's manual lists four levels of sound - Stealth, Tour, Sport, Track. But I think the exhaust valves are either open or closed. How do each of the modes affect the mufflers, and how do each of them affect how much noise is let into the cabin via noise...

In for an update @Terrance Speed :)

I've always been really happy with BC Forged. I have a great distributor contact that's helped with final decisions.

Weighing rotors is common for CCB's - not unique to BW's.

I found another source for the gear ratios - I think the wiki ratios and calculated speeds in my post are correct. https://news.cadillac.com/newsroom.detail.html/Pages/news/us/en/2024/jan/0124-ct5v.html

I'll help a little on the gearing, theoretically, using this equation: MPH = (RPM * Tire diameter in inches) / (Gear ratio * Final drive ratio * 336) Assuming: - 6500 RPM redline - 26.3" tire diameter - Wikipedia gear ratios from Tremec TR-6060 transmission - Wikipedia - Final drive ratio...

Whose will to through the line first, mine or @Kevin0311 !!!???

My dealer contacted me - they were notified that the TPW is week of 7/14/25. Still - much quicker than I expected. FWIW my order was allocated/accepted/whatever to ~2050 on June 3. I wonder (wild speculation) if all 2026's with 2050 status initially had a TPW for this week until they actually...

There are quite a few numbers between 2000 and 2051 I believe. Sources include https://www.cadillacvnet.com/forums/threads/gm-order-event-codes.1822/ https://gmauthority.com/blog/gm-order-tracking/gm-order-event-codes-and-definitions/ The Chatbot had told me last week that "Your vehicle order...

My order is accepted, I'm at 2050. No target production week yet.

@jbawden - curious what you think about that - is it quieter at stock when valves are closed? And you're selling because the open settings are too loud for your taste?

Call me crazy, but doesn't it seem like 2026's can roll into production much quicker - the 2026's are essentially identical to the 2025's, but the 2025's were going through a refresh.

Interesting. I like the idea of making the Jekyll and Hyde even more pronounced. Do others with the Corsa agree that it’s actually quieter in the ~tour modes?
