Installed Blackwing on a 2002 Vette
Anyone know once Blackwing is installed if the vette will relearn for the increase in air intake or will it have to be reprogrammed for that mod.

Just drive that puppy. The PCM will relearn in a relatively short period of time. I have one on my 2002 and it works great. :yesnod:

Negative. There are various reports of surging on some 01-02's after removing the screen. I took the conservative route on this mod and left it in.

Al: Welcome to the forum.... great place. Just drive the car and it will adjust. No need to remove the screen; it really does nothing useful for a normal driver and it may cause problems, as noted. Enjoy. :D
