LT4 has forged internals from GM. Lots of 1,000+ HP builds on OEM rotating assembly.

That's the Gen1 PDR. Blackwing uses the Gen2 PDR. None of those components will work with Global B.

I would repair. Keep in mind a repaired tire loses it's speed rating. So if you are planning on tracking, replace the tire.

Not a review. Just a rehash of the press release Caddy dropped today announcing production. Already on the list for one with Dustin. Gonna be the wife's daily and our first EV.

He wrote my policy in April of 2023. My '23 had just under 3,000 miles. This is what he quoted me: 96/80k $2145 84/70k $1617 84/56k $1372 72/60k $1162

You would need an ECU Bridge and a external GPS (if you want track/lap timing).

Apex makes (and has verified) fitment of 20" wheels. Their specs are: 20x10.5" ET15 F 20x11.5" ET42 R Those are direct fit. No spacers or rings required. They mount 285/30-20 and 305/30-20 tires (same as 6th Gen Camaro SS 1LE and ZL1).

For the Precision Package, GM has been able to fit a 285/35-19 in the front. That's 100% due to a revised front knuckle that allows greater negative camber. (-2.8) They stayed at 305 in the rear. Anything above 315 and I would start looking at the tire width specs. Some 315's are narrow and...

While I am sure the Cup2R is a decent tire, it's hardly the key ingredient. There are a LOT of better track tires out there that would work as well or better: Supercar 3R, Sport Maxx Race, P Zero Corsa or Trofeo, Hoosier A7/R7...etc. The point is the suspension and calibration are now up to the...

Dustin told me when he swaps the tires to get the order accepted, a credit is issued for the Cup2R. Not sure the exact amount. While the correct size for the Cup2R is listed on Michelin's website, it's the Porsche spec. I would assume the next manufacturing run would have the TPC version.

Right now you HAVE to get V8V with the PS4S. The Cup2R isn't avail. That's why pricing changes to 'see dealer' when they are selected.

Went through this thought process about my car. Hardware will be an easy get. Rear cradle bushings are a complete PITA install. But they are a 'must have' since you don't want all that new cornering force to be transmitted to the 'floppy' OEM bushing. Software is a complete 'no-go' and that...

I did order a '25 PP car to replace my '23. Went back to Dustin at Sewell. I spoke to a few folks about retro-fitting the hardware for a 'DIY PP', but in the end decided to get the OEM PP car and slap another extended warranty on it. Regarding tires on the PP: All of the cars ordered with it...

Lots of options of which Garmin is only one. Before cars with PDR, I used RaceRender/TrackAddict by HPTuners. https://racerender.com/Products/index.html The current gold standard for wheel to wheel folks is AIM's. https://www.aimtechnologies.com/aim-solo-2/
