They are the Holy Grail for the 5th Gen Camaro delivering Ultimate Control with Ride Quality. Ligenfelter removed a Brand-X set of coilovers and bolted on Pedders Supercars on thier 1,000+ RWHP Camaro. The result -- just over 2/10ths and a 5th Gen ready to break into the 8s. An 8 second full street car with an interior, AC and Pedders Supercar coilovers.

On the road course, everyone knows that Pedders rules the road course. ONLY Pedders has provided the Camaro5 community with a photo documentary of the Pedders Supercar Camaro Build. Not only does Pedders provide step by step how to build your Supercar Camaro information we provide documented performance on track. The track results are not presented in a vacuum. The track results are presented in context that allow you to compare OE to Pedders Supercar, Supercar to Pedders Supercar and Race Car to Pedders Supercar. Eventually another brand will do the same, but it has been two years. What are they waiting for?

Check out these results. You can see that Pedders Supercar Camaro is running FASTER than a CTS-V race car. The CTS-V is on slick with PENSKE custom valved Coilovers, fully triangulated, caged and over 700 pounds lighter. It is a full on race car. Pedders STREET CAR is FASTER with the SAME DRIVER!

Hot Rod was blown away by the performance of the Pedders Supercars. Both run 305/30/19 RE 11 Bridgestones on 10.5 x 19 Forgelines. While this wheel and tire setup does make the ride firm, the cars handle on street tires with full interiors better than many race cars while easily blowing by thier OE trim brothers. There is NO better suspension choice for your 5th Gen than Pedders Supercar Coilovers.

GMPP Product carries a licensee number. If you don't see this logo and number, it isn't a GMPP part.

Time to call your local Pedders Dealer.

After reading the article in the magazine, I have to say I liked your input, here, a lot more... Far more technical, far more details, far more insight. It sure would've been nice to see exactly how much power the car was down due to heat, but a win's a win

A great coilover is a great coilover
