How does JusticePete even justify telling anyone their brand new ZL1 needs to have it's warranty voided, and have it 'Pedderized' when he has probably never even drivin one to know just how good the suspesion already is for what everyone is goin to do with it?


LMAO at the guy that got Pedderized saying it's sooo good he could tell the difference just by backing it out of the shop...
very well said...............waste of time and money

You can tell the difference backing out over the transition from the shop to the parking lot with the sub-frame inserts installed, just as you can tell the difference between and FE3 and FE4 with the changes made to the sub-frame bushes. Sub-frame bushes, radius bushes and sway bars do not void your warranty. Lowering coils on factory struts MRC or otherwise place them in a grey area. Could be covered or could be denied. It would depend on the failure.

They get his ZL1 to help develop/refine their products, and he gets it for free or at least at a reduced price.
Perhaps Pedders will even offer to help sponser his ride.

Just wondering/guessing???
Pedders did donate our bits to the new Veteran flagship. Look at my signature. I donate to several charities that support our wounded warriors. I think everyone on C5 should be writing checks to http://woundedeodwarrior.org/ I'll not go into details, but one of my guys just got back and now has potentially life threatening health issues. I wish I could do more for all of them.

Pete,

Baconator vs Secret Squirrel, two equally match drivers, both A6, only difference was WHITE ZL1 (Secret Squirrel) was PEDDERIZED so as they write, a photo is worth 1000 words!

And Secret Squirrel ate 3 other ZL1's for lunch the same day

We ran same PTM modes as well, just for those that may ask!

So your SS handles better stock or with suspension upgrades? The answer is with upgrades, but Im guessing you already knew that. Everything can be made a little better based on what you would like to do with the car.

Perhaps someone local can ride with Becky to also review the comparison test?
