So that PCM you have, is it from a Camaro or does it not matter what car? I have a e39 pcm from a 2012 ctv so it would be nice if I could use that. I have no idea of it was auto or manual though.
Searching for a 2015 Camaro with an manual was horrible. I hope I don't have to do similar again.
I talked to the guy at Overkill. He said I can buy hp tuners for personal use and then he can do the tuning thru email for me. Kinda cool as he can tweak things and then I can mess with them also. He also does free tuning whenever you want after the first time, like if you were to change something on the motor.

Not 100% sure but think the PCM was from a Camaro. I know Overkill tunes are pretty popular with the Camaro guys. In the end I'll probably get his E85 tune as I'm plumbed for it now and have good access to it as well.

If not for the tube,,, this is very close to what I imagine I'd would of ended up with. Just a bit shorter as I used the OEM mount

You can run the car without a sway bar, and you can make it handle well without one, it will be a matter of having stiffer springs that would essentially offset the extra roll you would get without a bar. As an added bonus it will simplify fab work and reduce weight (no bar, no supports, no endlinks).

You certainly have a point but I think the bar was worth the effort.
I have a buddy who is an SCCA guy and his mantra is 'Big Bar,, Soft Springs'
