I'll make the list. That's a promise, not a hope.

Remember the little people when you do!

Mac

you mean like helping midgets find a cure? :D

Or maybe the set of headers for my vette?:D

better yet..forced induction...someone is making an underhood blower kit for the C4...ive seen a couple at the track...that were amzing...street tires and exhaust..running 10s!!

Nah, I think those cars are awesome, but I want a naturally aspirated car, not worried too much about track times...headers will be the next mod for me;)

Mac

what kind of exhaust do you have?

I have the Corsa Touring with Indy Tips...it's not too loud, but I can hear it. It is the exhaust that is GM approved and recommended by Lingenfelder. I'm very happy with it.

Mac

ok...i thought those looked like the Lingenfelder style tips...i coached a kid with Ligenfelder exhaust on a camaro...

i have thought about adding noisvy exhaust to my car but its kind of loud as is, and i do not want to draw more attention to myself.

but ti also adds performance dave!!

I felt the same way, and I looked for a long time before I settled on the Corsa. It really does help with the performance, though I think with your car it might be a little different. You have the titanium exhaust, right? So you would be adding some weight, though I'm not sure on all the particulars. With the plain jane C5, I have increased the power enough that I can feel it in the SOP with that exhuast upgrade.

It's not too loud, and I can't hear it when tooling down the highway. If I go WOT, I can hear it though...:)

Mac

i am honestly so hapoy the car right now, and im sure this sounds dumb, but i am afraid to do anything that will alter how it feels. i know more horsepower would be fun, but i am hesitant to change things.

It took me two years to start...I understand completely. Once I started, it's easier to continue. I think the first think I did was chrome my wheels...;)

Mac

your wheels didnt come in chrome??

mine arent chrome either...

what color are yours silver??
