for my friend (who didn't buy a blackwing) to go through the program the cost was $3,845. That got him a CT5 BW manual to drive plus the room, insurance, food, etc.

the headers not throwing codes is def the one that is very surprising

if you've read other threads you shouldn't be surprised by the poor paint quality some cars are seeing out of the lansing plant where 100k+ cars are also rolling out with 26k camaros

jb4s are for turbo cars. they are boost controllers that trick the ecu into thinking there is lower boost vs what is actually there, which changes the wastegate operation. you change the pulley on a supercharged vehicle to change the boost.

update: they replaced a coil pack this time and everything was running great. even set personal best lap times. then today the car threw the belt and coolant and oil temps instantly jumped to about 280 degrees before I could get things shut down. stuff was boiling well over 10 minutes later...

that's why you should order the replica from here Blackwing. its what i did

A few weeks away from orders being open & we still don’t know what the refresh looks like…

Here’s pics showing how done they are when the sensor alerts you in the dash

The bronze weigh more. Keep in mind if you start changing unsprung weight the magride won’t be as optimized. The programming is difference for instance if you have CCB vs steel

this is how much fuel it uses during a 20 minute track session. Mpg is around 3

there's a pad sensor that wears through and alerts you in the dash when they are done. as soon as it says they are done they are DONE. don't wait any longer. i'm on my second set of rear pads and third set of fronts at 5k, but that is in a 5 with a lot of track use.

The brakes shouldn’t feel different as they are brake by wire. All feel is simulated through a solenoid. There’s no direct connection except in an emergency if the electric fails. Get with Terrence Sig. in the mods forum he’s producing an exact OEM copy of the rear spoiler at a fraction of the...

I retract my previous post. CEL is back. Exact same location as where I triggered it the first time. Haven’t been able to get it to pop up in other places/conditions. I’m not sure if a car could get more lemony when it comes to lemon laws. This is getting beyond frustrating. Maybe GM needs to...

Took car to track yesterday. Could only run it all out late in the afternoon as the track was too wet from overnight rain most of the day. Seems to be holding up so far. I did notice that they didn’t tighten one of the exhaust manifold shield bolts, left off 2 under body panel fasteners, &...

On the config we ran they said there’s not much difference. There were only a couple places where you’d shift. I ran a car both with and without carbon ceramics and didn’t notice a difference on that track either. Now on other tracks the auto is definitely faster & I imagine the unsprung weight...

Welp guess I’ll be heavily stress testing it tomorrow at an all day track event

Strongly recommend Carmelo’s. It’s a small Italian restaurant a short drive from the track. The pizza is pretty good, but the calzones are way better. The bruschetta & garlic bread are unreal & are must gets. They’ll also pour you normally expensive liquor very generously very cheap.

Welp, going back again. Got over 1,000 miles on the new longblock and had the dealer change the oil under warranty a few days ago. Driving home I did a full throttle run of 2nd, 3rd, & into fourth & the check engine light started flashing, which usually indicates an emissions system issue. Maybe...

My part came in & im scheduled for next week for install

In a black car that costs this much PPF the entire thing. Just imagine if an option existed that prevented minor scratches, swirls, & stone chips while also making cleaning much easier. That option cost less than the msrp increase many faced going from a 22 to a 23
