    Lowering springs for 2026 Blackwing

    Did you get an alignment done too or leave it stock? When I lowered my 2021 ZL1 with EIbachs, I didn't bother with an alignment, the car drove just fine and tear wear was also just fine. I'm debating on whether to do an alignment on the BW.

    Lowering springs for 2026 Blackwing

    Will do. Swift seems to be the most popular option on these cars but I don't like the slammed look. The few cars that I've seen on Eibachs look perfect to me. I also ran Eibachs on my 2021 Camaro ZL1 and the stance was perfect and I was very happy with the ride quality too.

    Lowering springs for 2026 Blackwing

    If I recall, Eibach and Swift both claim the same amount of drop .7" front and rear but from what I've seen in pics, it always seems like the Swifts are lower than the Eibachs. I'm going with the Eibachs and will have them installed the first week of December.

    catalyst inefficiency codes, 100% stock

    My 2024 CT5 BW recently threw P4020 code, but only after I installed a JLT intake. I reset the code, removed the JLT intake and the code didn't come back. Reinstalled the JLT intake and the code came back again within a few days. Removed the intake again and reset the code and it hasn't come...

    CT5-V WTF - melting piston

    Hindsight is 20/20 but I guess if I lived in Cali, I would have paid to have my car shipped to one of the top shops in the country. They can arrange pick-up and delivery. Small price to pay for peace of mind when you're spending that much.

    Reviews for Omni Motorsports seem to be rather poor.

    CT5-V Mini tubbing

    I will just have to disagree with the Plaid statement, having owned one and I've owned a LOT of very quick ICE vehicles too, the Plaid is one amazing piece of tech. The fact that that car runs what it does at a cost of less than 90k brand new and can be picked up used in the 40s and still run a...

    Awe man, that sucks. It's hard to find good shops that are reputable these days and stand behind their work. Hopefully they make it right with you.

    Tire Sizes Question

    Yea, that trap speed is good for high 10's if all things are ideal. You just need to get those 60 ft's down. 1.6 to 1.7 should be doable. Manual trans is going to be a little tougher to launch though.

    Cleaning this thing is a BITCH !!!

    PPF and ceramic coating helps tremendously.

    Blower lid sound deadening plate

    If you're worried about warranty then an aftermarket lid is as far as you can go and it will make some difference for sure.

    Blower lid sound deadening plate

    That's true, you will never get the same blower whine as a Hellcat, its just an entirely different design. That being said, you can get a LOT more whine out of the stock blower when its ported, pullied, and with an aftermarket lid.

    Blower lid sound deadening plate

    I did it on my ZL1, made little to no difference. If you want more whine, swap the lid itself with an aftermarket piece.

    Full Custom Exhaust

    They were also supposed to be working on developing a catback exhaust for these cars earlier this year and now the year is almost over and nothing to announce. I'm still waiting on AWE to finish theirs.

    Full Custom Exhaust

    I don't hate round tips but every aftermarket exhaust I've seen for the CT5 Blackwing so far has the tips sticking out too far which looks stupid. The image of the GT Haus exhaust from behind looks good to me, but I don't know how far the tips stick out.

    CT5-V Mini tubbing

    You can, you just need to cautious and slow down if the rain is heavy. Not all drag radials are the same. Nitto 555R2 is much better in the rain than a Mickey Thompson ET Street R.

    SOLD: Soler Performance 87mm (Eff 91mm) throttle body

    FS: Soler Performance 87mm (Eff 91mm) throttle body. Used for about 6 weeks on my 2024 Blackwing. Selling because I'm getting ready to install a Magnuson 2650 supercharger and 103mm throttle body. The cars runs great with this throttle body, really increases throttle response throughout the...

    CT5-V Mini tubbing

    Totally different chassis and made less HP and torque than a stock Blackwing much less a modified Blackwing. A 355 street tire isn't going to give you the traction you're hoping for. I had 335 Michelin Pilot Super Sport street tires on the back of my 1000hp Hellcat and they wouldn't hook up on...
