Jester, When I went with a BTR Stage 1 cam I worked with Chris Henry Motorsports. He is a member here. He had prior experience with this cam in the G8's. I used HP Tuners to upload the tune and to data log the results. (Having HP Tuners has come in handy for me to scan for codes, tire size changes o...

I would search 2012 Camaro Brembo brake fitment template. assuming that you are using that big brake configuration. It is a PDF file that I cannot upload here. Also follow the instructions in the link below. Make sure to "scale" your cardboard template accurately... https://www.racetechnol...

My apologies, I quickly read CTS instead of CT5. please disregard.
