Is Robbie talking about his car or someone elses? Below his member name it says 2016 Camaro; they did not make 1LE's until 2017 model year.

Smells like a hit piece.

Doesn't matter if clarification happens later, just like the media these days.

Or he doesn't know WTF he's doing.

82 year old dad had too get rushed too the hospital shortly after i posted this, so thats why i havent been able too respond.

Its my car, the Mosaic Black 16 Camaro I had was traded for my present 17 1LE due too severe paint issues.

The following is a list of all the parts that were installed.

UTCA063
UTCA060
TCA061
TR007
CB008
CB009
DSL019
DTB006
BK062

Most of the parts were ordered from Phastek Performance not directly from BMR as i originally stated, go my 13 Mustang GT order and this one confused.

I ordered BMR because of the success I had on the Mustang, unfortunately I havent had the same success with the Camaro parts.

There is one thing that I left out, went with Eibach Prokit springs because my friends that purchased BMR for their 1LE complained about a floaty feeling in the back end.

Eibach has two sets of springs listed, one for the standard SS Camaro, and a different set for the 1LE, this made sence, would have preferred the BMR set and may still go with those down the road but if all of this gets squared away ill stick with the present setup.

About too get snow and didnt want too risk having the car stuck at the shop so an appointment was made for the first day of spring.

The wheel hop is still severe, dont know why, but we'll eventually get too the bottom of this.

Worst case scenerio, i drive too Florida for a bit of vacation and have BMR figure this all out, until then she'll be sitting in a nice warm garage.

Thanks Pete and sorry for not getting back too the post sooner.

That is very odd given the list of parts you have. The Delrin cradle bushings along should make such a drastic change in the car (greatly reducing wheel hop). It really doesn't make any sense. Did you check to make sure the MRC harnesses are pluged in? And does the condition change in different driving modes?

With everything you have, the rear of that car should be absolutely rock solid. The only thing you didnt change was differential bushings (which I wouldn't neccessarily reccomend if you drive the car a lot). Let me think on this one a bit and discuss with our design engineers. I will get back with you soon. I am going to be out of the office the second half of this week I might not have any info till next week. Just a heads up.

Thanks,

Pete
