    Blackwing Maintenance Regimen

    I got overwhelmed by the number of PF64 part numbers there were online, so I just upgraded to the UPF64 from tapout's website. Since then, the oil pressure has been within a couple psi of what it was with the standard PF64 filter recommended by the manual. The upgraded filter seems more...

    big thanks to @NJ4BW Lid install took 15 minutes, had a rough idle at first (which is to be expected), but there is absolutely more power available.

    New Rears, or just replace the one tire

    Blowing out both tires on the same side at speed does not sound like a fun experience, I am glad you were alright! Thank you for your input, this is really solid information. I had a feeling I was on the right track with the rear diff being sensitive New rears ordered

    New Rears, or just replace the one tire

    I have a question regarding a tire replacement and the overall lifespan of these TPC spec PS4S summer tires. I noticed a huge screw in the shoulder of my rear passenger tire (TPC PS4S) back when I swapped to my winter set. It is 100% non-repairable due to location of the screw. this...

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Last night on rt 34 in colts neck, nj a large tree came down directly onto my roof while trying to get home from the driving range. A freak storm cell popped up out of nowhere, took down all sorts of trees, and knocked out all the power. I thought I could make the 5-minute trip back to my...

    Stock or aftermarket 4BW pads and rotors?

    I am curious how many miles you got out of your OEM rotors -- any track time on them?

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

    If it weren't for this email inquiry out of the blue from December, my honest bet would have been never. Perhaps they cannot gather enough interest to justify the R&D costs. see the inquiry below from dec 04 2024 last update is

    Correct valve position for Corsa installation…

    Good info here. Thank you, Sully I am 85% sure that I was in the correct ignition/service mode, but will have to try again to confirm now that it is warmer outside. Some additional info -- I was an early adopter with a prototype kit for the 4BW -- I installed my system last October and have...

    Correct valve position for Corsa installation…

    I have been trying to do an exhaust relearn but the tool says "not ready" under the learn function for exhaust valve relearn. The valves still function just fine, open and close as they should. Just cannot get rid of that damn CEL. Does anyone know what isn't ready? Or maybe if a dealer or...

    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...
