    American Racing Wheels

    I just priced these wheels (Z50 Chrome (not the black chrome)with Corvette Logo) at my local Sears Auto Center, which is an American Racing dealer. They quoted me just under $3200 for the set...ON SALE! Way too rich for my tastes (or should I say my wallet)! Bummer, because I like them a lot...

    Headers, manifold, TB, MAF recommendations...

    Thanks for the all the helpuf info. I will definitely go with the Z06 intake manifold and Belanger headers sometime in the future (when I can afford it). Not sure about switching the rearend, but I'll consider it when the time comes. Is the gas mileage worse with the new gearing? Regarding...

    Headers, manifold, TB, MAF recommendations...

    Kelly&Don, You didn't happen to have your car dynoed, did you? I was wondeering exactly how much of a power increase you got with those mods. Thanks!

    Headers, manifold, TB, MAF recommendations...

    Hi All, In addition to my current mods (check out my signature), I'm thinking of doing at least headers and intake manifold down the road. That said, what else would be recommended to complement all of those mods and realize my car's potential (if anything), without delving deep into the...

    Shocks, Swaybars, Exhaust and PLII installed this week...lowered too...LOVE IT!!!

    Well, I got my car back Wednesday night from having the swaybars, shocks & exhaust installed and I had them lower it too (maximum without cutting). When I got home I loaded the PLII and took it for another ride. Unbelievable!!! With all the mods I've done, the car handles like it should, sounds...

    Installed Vortex Rammer & Powerduct today...not much (if any) difference?!

    I'm still wondering if any of my concerns really matter considering I'm installing the TTS PLII this week... Won't that rectify the whole "relearn" thing and have my engine running at peak performance with the new mods? Mean In Green :confused

    Installed Vortex Rammer & Powerduct today...not much (if any) difference?!

    I read that after installing the subject mods you have to drive around for a few miles so the computer can "relearn" before you notice a real difference in power. Well, I've driven about 10 miles since and haven't felt a difference. Is there something special I need to do? I'll be "downloading"...

    Want To Lower 1 Inch All Around Without Cutting

    Regarding the alignment...Considering I'm doing the shocks, swaybars & lowering at the same time I figured I'd definitely need to get the car aligned that day as well...or should I wait a week for the car to "settle"? If I do it right away, will I have to have it aligned AGAIN after the car...

    Want To Lower 1 Inch All Around Without Cutting

    Your car...is that the maximum it can be lowered without cutting anything? If so, then that's what I want. If not, then I think I'd take it down a full inch if possible. I actually AM going to have a shop lower it for me at the same time I have my Bilstein shocks/Hotchkis swaybars/Corsa...
