    Blackwing-spec PS4Ss heat cycle out long before wearing out?

    Noted. It may be a horrific mistake, but somehow I’ll soldier on. Incidentally, even Richie at Spring Mountain said if you want a quieter tire that still performs very well, the pilot sport all seasons are a great tire. I don’t track my car, so I don’t probably need a track-capable tire...

    Yep. AS will last 50,000 miles instead of 20,000 miles.

    Tapout MAF tubes

    I searched but didn’t find any threads where this was discussed - at least with anyone that has some experience with the install. These have been available for a bit now, surely there is someone who’s done it without the JB4 and can comment?

    Tapout MAF tubes

    Is there anyone with a 4BW that has installed JUST the larger MAF tubes from TapOut? Meaning, without a JB4 tuner as well. They mention on their site that some cars get a DTC on cold starts with the larger MAF tubes. Just wondering how prevalent that is. Not sure I want to do the whole tuner...

    Blackwing-spec PS4Ss heat cycle out long before wearing out?

    21,000 miles on mine w no track use but a lot of spirited driving. Replacing them with pilot sport all seasons this week. I want something quieter and that will last a bit longer as I dd my blackwing.

    Hardwired Radar Detector

    I have had no such issues with my install. You’re only grabbing power, it shouldn’t stop working. ng

    Spring Mountain Impressions

    Everytime I was behind one on the long straight (a 5bw), i was astonished on how hard it pulled away. Amazing cars, no doubt. Every time I saw it, I was like, “me want.” I was also amazed at how quickly I caught up once the straights were done. Just my observation, but I’m pretty positive...

    Spring Mountain Impressions

    I just got done with Spring Mountain (was there Monday and Tuesday, 4/28 and 4/29). Great facility, great instructors. I had zero track experience prior to the two-day course, and now feel somewhat competent, which is a testament to the quality of the instructors. My classmates were also...

    CT5-V HORRIBLE experience with Bayway Cadillac SW

    I bought my ‘23 4BW at Bayway, and did not have a great experience either. Their add-on packages are ludicrous, they badly swirled my paint, and they weren’t willing to do much once the car was out of their possession. Pissed me off so much that I have never gone back for service and will not...

    Radar Detector

    Here’s exactly what I bought. It’s a VERY clean install, and I’m still extremely happy with it. Loctite the screws that hold the mount on.

    Radar Detector

    There’s another thread in here somewhere where me and several others detail the install — I don’t have it handy but’s it’s in here in the interwebz somewhere.

    Radar Detector

    I have a Uniden R7 and have never heard the laser detector go off a single time. I don’t think they run laser in Texas - good mix of Ka and K band in my neck of the woods.

    Serial Data Gateway Module recall

    I had mine in for warranty replacement of both tail lights and flaking dash trim. They took care of this at the same time, no big deal.

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    While I get your point and it’s probably in there somewhere, none of the options listed there match what I actually bought.

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Well you live and you learn.

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    I did add these puddle lights, and I think they are awesome. Also bought some BW valve stem caps and BW cup holder pucks. Savage Cadillac is now one of my all time favorite sites.

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    I just put these on my car tonight — I like the look, and you are correct about the orientation! They are easy to rotate, and I think this looks great especially walking into a dark garage.
