For the competitive side Pfadt/AFE, Olins, or KWs. The only downside to going with "racing" coil overs is that they will at some point need rebuilding which is not cheap, requires sending them back...

The biggest difference between the FE3 (‘10-11) and the FE4 (‘12-15) is the sway bars and the LCAs. FE4 moved the mount point for the rear sway bar outboard. The FE3 mounts had a tendency to rip off...

So after the fluid change the problem was louder? I would bet there’s not enough friction modifier in the fluid they used. Most diff fluids now say they contain the friction modifier but I found with...

Since you said GM serviced your differential, did they use GM fluid? The problem with GM’s fluid in ‘10-11 cars is the axle seals are not compatible with the revised fluid. The seals will eventually...

Not sure I understand what you mean it's tougher to mask for power coat. Both sets I had done were masked on the areas that should not be coated, including the piston holes.

Looks like the car must have been tracked with those brake duct mods. Looks a lot like what I did when I was doing HPDEs. Nice job on the opti coat. I'll have to look into that product.

I hope you got the version 2 of those coilovers. The version 1 that Pfadt made is no longer supported by AFE for rebuilding. So if/when they start leaking they'll be junk. Also, at the time I had...
