I’ll be there then too.

I went to that Florida dealer this summer when I was first shopping for a 5BW. Non negotiable $20k dealer adjustment. I walked out and went to another local dealer and got a 5BW off the lot for MSRP, but paid for dealer-added window tinting (which I wanted anyway here in Florida). Keep...

Was it really necessary to run this wire over the back of the engine? It kind of ruins the look of this great engine.

Why not use the under hood battery connections for your battery tender? I connect my cteck charger there all the time and it works fine.

Ha ha. I live 10 min from that park. Love having that nearby.

Hard to do. Great job. What about clutch, trans, drive shaft, diff & axles. Can they handle the added power and torque? Extra power will always find the weakest link. I know there is some robust drivetrain components on these cars but this a lot of additional power.

No but I did see the C&D article about their test car engine failure. Seems like a very isolated incident

Lack of response = good news.

I now have 3,500 miles on my 2023 5BW and have had zero issues with it. Very pleased with that. I’m curious if others on this board have had any problems and did the warranty cover it? I’m guessing that about 99.9% of folks on this board are still under warranty. Please, if you would, share...

Just watched this Hennessy video: They claim 1,000 HP crank & 840 RWHP which equates to 16% drivetrain loss. Don't know if auto or manual though.

Wow that is really low. How did you calculate those numbers?

Ok thanks. Using the 620 RWHP number and assuming 17% drivetrain loss, the crank HP is 747. Assuming 25% drivetrain loss, the crank HP is 827. Additionally, if we assume the published 668 crank HP is correct AND the 620 RWHP is accurate, this equates to only a 7.2% drivetrain loss which, in...

Yes but RWHP results I have seen are all over the map, ranging from 550 to about 630. Where can I find the results you mention?

How did you enjoy the car on the trip?

Does anyone know the actual crank HP for the CT5 V Blackwing? I suspect they publish 668 because it would be political suicide for a Cadillac to have more HP than the current corvette which is published to be 670. Anyone know?

This is nothing new and good practice.

My 2023

For manual transmissions cars what changes are made when you select one of the four different settings for the Engine/Shift line in picture. Does this change throttle sensitivity and/or something else?

What are the differences between a 2023 and 2024 ct v 5 blackwing? I’ve heard roomers but nothing concrete.
