    Apex Wheels for CT4-V Blackwing

    that is awesome -- I must have missed these when I picked up my set of VS-5RS. Are you running extended threads for additional lug engagement? Or just rocking OEM?? link to longer studs: https://www.tapouttuning.com/product/tapout-tuning-wheel-studs/

    Does A Radar Detector Help Anymore?

    I have run radar in every car since I started driving. I absolutely swear by them in NJ/NY. The pace of traffic here is often well above posted speed limits, so you have to run some sort of tech to protect yourself. Usually the cruisers camp on the side of the highway with the radar systems...

    CT4-V Disappointed after lengthy Test drive

    Tapout has some dyno charts on their site for both a10 and m6 -- from my understanding the oversized lid tells the ECM to command more boost than OEM. This solution is not a traditional intake and TB combo, there is some sort of fancy sensor "trickery" going on as well. That is how they...

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    went to get some coffee pods from storage this AM, found the Blackwing somewhat leaning to one side in the garage there was a large screw in the outer shoulder on the driver rear tire. Not repairable for sure based on location, totally flat easy solution was to throw the winter shoes on (PS4...

    CT4-V Velossa Tech Design

    I picked up a pair in black with red tips. I am thinking about spraying the red parts black so it barely stands out. Something about how bright this red is makes me think I will hate it after a week. curious as to how intensive installation is -- mine came with no directions but something...

    CT4-V AWE-Tuning.com ready to make full exhaust kits

    funny that they are interested now. I called those guys every month for two years, then gave up and purchased a full kit elsewhere. same story with corsa. I will rock my CPD kit until it literally rots off the vehicle

    Porous Oil Pan!

    Woah.... I have seen an aluminum pan sweat once before, the guy said it was related to the differing metals cooling at different rates after track use. Probably different than what is being described here

    Anyone Following Crest Performance for 4BW Exhaust?

    I’ll take some more photos and a clip from the cabin If you are gonna do this solo on a lift, a pole jack will make install much easier along the mid section (I also had two friends help with lifting/holding the rear assembly into place while I bolted the hangers in on each side) I did need...

    Anyone Following Crest Performance for 4BW Exhaust?

    I did 95% of the install on Thursday using a 2 post lift in 2 hours. Install was struggle free until that last v band. Finally got it in solo, but wasn’t happy with the fitment and had a small leak at the driver DP slip joint. So, this morning I had a very trusted exhaust guy drop the system...

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    I installed the crest performance dynamics race exhaust late last night. Still need to fix a gap in one of the vbands and re clamp the driver side to fix a small leak. I confidently say this, the sound from CPD's instagram is nowhere close to how this sounds in real life.... This thing is...

    CT4-V Front rotors warping

    I would bet on brake pad deposits unless there is measurable runout on the front rotors. I frequently get these small spots on my front rotors accompanied with pulsation within a week of detailing the car. Get her up to temps, then rip to100-120 and slam on the brakes like 4 or 5 times back...
