    I have these for my CT4-V. They're not as large as these but bigger than those on that Camaro. Both the CT4-V and CT5-V Blackwing owners manuals state that these deflectors are for track use only. Here's the blurb from the CT5-V manual: "These parts are for track use only. After track events, reinstall the original front and rear rotor shields and remove the rear lower control arm cooling deflectors."

    Nice. Just subscribed. Watched a few of your vids last week. Wanting to do this setup too. Intake/TB; Speed Engineering 1-7/8/ X pipe / secondary cat delete with use of remaining factory NPP and a Cold Air Inductions. What's your thoughts? I can do the work except the tune. Will need to get a tune somewhere. Am i missing something or going the wrong direction? Any thoughts on HP /TQ gains. Guessing 65/50 ???? Thanks!

      @keithcastleberry3993 Thank you for the support! That's really my setup, just bolt ons which with the headers makes the car so much more engaging to drive! The sound! U can bypass the TB if on budget, that is more for throttle response. Not really hp. But that would be a good setup. Will need Halo brace underbody crossmember to clear xpipe. Just make sure to tie wire harness on passenger side away from header otherwise it touches and burns through

Will eventually probably set to 800 once my idle airflow is dialed in. Which will screw it up but only a little.

    Just saying ! You really want the back presser as the 4 cyl mode give less exhaust and gets you higher gas mileage rather then popping or getting less hp on the less cyl's. Dose sound better but more open exhaust get poor mileage because we can't help stepping on it even tho we do pull a bit more power in open thro. You want tone open the muffler up is better, not free but better. But thanx for the info if you wanted louder it's a win.

    I have been running a 174 degree thermostat in my 2017 3500hd 6.0 and it actually keeps the engine running at about 176 degrees. Love it. The gauge cluster shows about the same position as the stock one which ran at 198 but you can see the real temp in a scanner. Huge improvement, keeps everything in the engine bay cooler and ensures better longevity for all the electronics on the engine!
