Thats what putting it on touring mode does, close the valves and make it sound stock-ish.

TapOut's Swift Springs

I wouldn’t go more than 5mm on stock studs. Think there might be enough lip on the hub snout to align the wheel back on.

Sun just hit it right.

I’m still on the fence on it. That piece is the rear glass spoiler. I keep adding them to the cart but keep having commitment issues. 🤣

I don’t have a problem with going hybrid on the Blackwing. Only if it sounds like the IMSA Lemans car when it goes from electric to ICE. That thing sounds like the Deathstar is fire up when it transitions. 😮‍💨

You can atleast adjust the slip on tips on the Corsa ones and push them further in. Slash tips definitely looks better than the straight cut ones. I bought straight cut CF tips since those were the only available ones. The way the diffuser angles in definitely doesn’t help.

Think an intake would make more difference with the blower noise than taking these plates off.

Also, when installing the valves in, if your clip falls off, test fitting it in first and flip the clip orientation 180°. One way will long the bolt holes for the screws more than the other. Think one reasoning people are having exhaust CEL is because of that. Or the clip fell off, stuck in...

Tucking the tips in more makes them not stick out as a sore thumb as much. That’s the only beauty of the slip on connection, you can push them pretty far in. But, that means you’d have to play with aligning the 4 tips again and you know how much fun that is. ☠️

Yeah, so best bet to shoot for the same overall diameter compared to stock. My rule of thumb is always close to stock but never over 3% difference. I use a wheel offset calculator and tire calculator to figure out what is stock and compare the sizes im going for. For the most part, my specs...

Hard to get a really good dished wheel because of the high offsets and large brakes in for the rear. Fronts, you can get dish for days but itll look wonky not matching the rear. I'm running 20x10.5 +13j and 20x12 +50j.

Probably dead since you cant integrate the flex sensor in the engine bay like in the older LT and LS. Joys of Global B encrypting most of the canbus connections.

There's no springs in the flap. They dont have a spring that defaults them to a certain position when the electronic valves arent mated. The stock electronic valves control them fully. The stock electronic valve actually defaults to open when power is off. What gets most folks are either...
