Roto Fab for ZLE
Before I pull the trigger on a Roto Fab CAI, which filter should I go with for the LT4 Dry or Oiled?, I am doing mods to my 19 ZLE which will include the CAI, Power stop brake pads and the last thing will be Cat back AWE, thanks for any input.

Doesn't matter, I tried both. Just choose whichever you prefer for look.

In reference to Power Stop pads, I use mine for tooling around with the old lady so I don't pull my hair out trying to keep the wheels clean. Anytime I head to the track or the mountains, I put on the stock pads and wheels/tires.

Regarding the dust, I hear you on that. Ceramic coating the wheels makes a world of difference with regards to the dust. Like you said, you dont hammer the car on the street. To the OP... I GUARANTEE you that if you put on those powerstops... the first time you do a real pull and then go for the brakes you will likely yell out loud "HOLY SHIT" and it wont be in a good way... then hopefully you immediately remember this warning. The ceramic pads are NOT up to the task of the weight and horsepower of a ZL1. No matter what anyone tells you. Good luck.

Most people don't realize is that there is a big difference between ceramic and ceramic/carbon fiber pads, I had the latter on my 17 1SS and they were better when it was wet, just for the record I did not mention anything about using the power stops for track, that's why I usually save the stock pads for that purpose, I do know my limitations when it comes to driving, granted ever since I got this ZLE I have KIDS try to test me, I will never fall for that BS or ruin my car because of their stupidity, this has already happened right after I got it, I just told the individual that he can go buy his own ZLE and leave mine out of the picture, I bought this car to enjoy and not for the enjoyment of others or others to say what suggestions they say I should do in regards to driving it, bottom line is that I don't like brake dust because in the long run it plays hell on both the tires and wheels, lets keep this thread from becoming a pissing match unless whoever has facts that back up their stories, and usually pics also play a big part not just forth or fifth hand here say.

As to brake pads, there's no way I'd give up the Ferodos. I don't give a **** about brake dust, my wheels are ceramic coated and a little elbow grease is no problem—besides, cleaning wheels is therapeutic

OEM pads or Ferrodo is my recommendation. G-Loc if you actually plan to track it. But the OEM frankly work 'pretty darn good' on the track as well.
Best regards, Dave
