    Z06 guys are lucky

    Its not just the pedals. Needing a usable rear space is also the other issue. I miss my C6Z every day but needed a more practical car to haul kids in on a pinch than just driving the family mover. Theres not much out there thats a manual with livable rear seats. If I didnt want a manual, I'd...

    CT5-V Blackwing: Slight Yaw/Rotation under hard throttle

    Same, few folks have said that fixed the swaying on theirs from the few FB groups. Basically similar issues from what the V3 guys experience. Seems to be not as bad since V3 guys ends up replacing every rear arms, not jus the toe arm to fix the load deflection issue. And thats why Ive been...

    20” wheel/tire specs for 5BW?

    Honestly, its not bad. End of the day, its still a full size sedan. Not a low to the ground sports car like a corvette. Maybe Im just so used to driving lowered cars that this thing doesnt even phase me. Lets just say Ive had cars so low that I've scrapped freeway reflectors with my...

    20” wheel/tire specs for 5BW?

    its not bad, Tapout springs arent that crazy higher than the stock spring rates. People just need to remember it takes a bit for them to settle. Ride will be rougher the first month or so, then they start feeling close to stock. Still firmer but I have my shock setting back to the middle...

    20” wheel/tire specs for 5BW?

    Im lowered on Tapout Swift springs. Slight rubbing on the front fender on turns on the driver side fender for some reason. Just flattened the lip a little bit to clear.

    20” wheel/tire specs for 5BW?

    Im running 20x10.5 +13, 20x12 +50 with 285/30R20 and 335/25R20 Continental Extreme Contact 2. Basically with the width, you can find Corvette Z06 spec tires that will fit (335 or 325s in the rear). You have options to go All Season or even Run Flats if you decide you dont want to worry about...

    How long do you wait after starting the car to move it off?

    I atleast wait until the RPMs fully open up. If you pay attention on initial start up, the redline is lower when the engine is colder. Wait a few minutes and you should see it jump up atleast 2x to get to the 6500. Once its open to 6500, thats my cue to start driving. Take it easy until I...

    Absolute Dearth of All-Season Tires for CT5-V Blackwing

    Thats an alignment issue, reaaaaaaly bad toe will eat that tire faster than bad camber. If its tire failure, you'd be chunking it.

    2650 Blower from Kong?

    Plus dont forget the cost. X-port, TB, underpulley, you're already at roughly $3.5K when said and done. Then you're looking at another $1800 for extra cooling (HX and tank) in trying to keep it cooler. Another $1K if you decide you want a fancy lid like me. :ROFLMAO: Save the money, sell...

    P2096 Kooks Headers with green Cats

    It'll probably self adjust to the point the car will just ignore it. There are folks who swear they had similar thing happen on UNCATTED headers. They cleared the code once or twice the first 500 miles and just never came back.

    CT5 BW CAI - Finally

    If you look at the rounded edges of the box, those are soft rubber pieces that helps seal when the hood is closed.

    2025 CT5 & CT5-V Blackwing Order Support Guide

    Yeah, $9K sounds considering they didnt really have to re-engineer alot of things. Bushings and tires are already parts bin stuff. Stiffer spring rates, adjusted MR valving for the stiffer springs, larger sways, adjusted E-Diff and steering feedback. Revised knuckles to get more camber means...

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Installed those ZL1 addon style lift points on the car. Dont have to worry about using those slotted hockey pucks to jack the car up. FYSA: I didnt trust just having the 2 screws to hold them in place. I added my trusty 3M panel bond double sided tape for that extra "that thing better not...
