    CT5-V CT5 Blackwing Deep Ocean Blue?

    Seems lighter color than the darker Le Monstre belts. Le Monstre almost look purplish when I saw it first hand.

    CT4-V Using oil extractor?

    Definitely not using Supercar. Then again, thats not whats recommended for the 4BW vs the 5BW.

    Help Kooks Headers vs Corsa CB Exhaust

    I went with Kooks 2" uncatted first. Kept the stock mufflers and I still think they were too quiet. Ended up getting Corsa axle backs. Corsa Catback by itself is going to be louder than Headers to stock mufflers. Corsas open is just more rowdy. Valves close, they're quieter than the stock...

    CT4-V Using oil extractor?

    I have an oil extractor too but the fact that I gotta crawl underneat to replace the filter kinda kills the point of using it. Might as well use my ramp, jack the nose up to drain and swap filters.

    Manual trans owners--both 4 and 5

    Coming from TR6060 on C6Z, and seeing the placement of the drain plug on these TR6060, easier to drain at the temp sensor. Thats how I did it when I changed mine 2 yrs ago.

    A little out of proportion

    Manual transmission take rate

    Well, considering its a new option, not a lot. This number is probably the average since 22, which its a very believable number. Well, Tony Romo is the guy that pushed hard for manual BWs. Guess whos in charge of the Corvette now? 👍 Doubt it. Production numbers for both cars has...

    CEL P10BA - Charge Air Cooler (CAC) Coolant Pump Control Circuit

    Question is, is the code for the pump failing or just having air in the system. The pump wouldnt spin if there's air in the line and thats been a thing since the V3s. Can always try bleeding it and see if that alleviates the issue. Use the DMS coolant bleeder attachment, cut a 2liter soda...
