Ha ha great thead! I have some nuts.:thumb

:thumbI have that system and I love it!The tips are rather large.Its louder than stock at idle and I love that corvette burble.Slam on the gas and it gets LOUD!crusing slight drone but not bad at all.Paid like 700 something a few years ago.NO problems at all,did the install in about an hour with...

A lot of guys use the G.M.red hi-po plug wires-I paid 60 dollars for mine.You can spend 100 to 200 dollars for plug wires,not needed on a stock vette if you are running turbos headers etc.then I would go with them:thumb

They are just for heat.When I changed plugs last time I left them off-but keep them,then I went with a good hi-po plug wires-everything is fine without them.:thumb

Do it yourself,its easy and when your done you'll feel good about it,take your time and enjoy a day in the garage with your vette!:upthumbs

I agree vette boy!Just use Mobil1 and be done.Two BIG corvette debates-oil brands and wax brands go figure.:cool

I used Royal Purple in my LS1.It is big$$$Did I notice a change-no.The oil appeared thiner than Mobil 1.I'm just going to use Mobil 1 and be done with it their is no real reason to try different brands-for what reason?Just keep it full and clean.:thumb

I drive Interstate 75 from naples to Miami-Alligator alley saw one BIG gator anyway I drive the speed limit-70 and watch everyone pass me and look over at me thinking-look at that jerk in a nice vette doing the speed limit!But every now and then-look out he's comming-zang right up to 100,so easy...

I think use a heat gun on them and get behind them with fishing line-be slow and carefull!

wow!good stuff to know-some things are better left alone!:thumb

yea,this is part of the corvette c-5 world,seems they all have little things like wind noise,belt noise,wackey gas gauges,pegged oil gauges,noisey fuel pumps,tire wear etc. etc.enjoy!;shrug

Just got back from Miami.My new tires worked out well in the rain,half way across alligator alley it poured!B.F.goodrich a/s held good.Had to pass two ricers hogging the left lane wtf.I threw a dirty roostertail on them!Sorry ricers:chuckle

Edmond-I paid 160 each for this tires from tire rack which I think is a great deal.I just can;t see paying Big Bucks on tires for a car I put on 5000 miles a year! install was free-friend at a dealership!:thumb

Thanks again Kenny-I'm just trying to get my 02 coupe ready for another long hot Florida summer!This forum has been helpful and I;ve got a lot of good stuff from it's members.I have been on Corvette Forum.com also.Seems like more action over there,but this is a good site.Thanks for the...

thanks-that sounds like good advise!Here in sw florida its pretty hot year round and interstate driving heats tires up quick.A run to Miami and they are 35-36psi.I think I'll keep them at your setting and check them. thanks:beer

Thanks guys!LLc5 I think I'll try 28psi cold in the rears and check them like you said,my salesman at Tire Rack said a lot of Vette owners and Porshe owners tell him the same thing-the rear centers wear out first. I'd like to slow that somewhat problem down on my new rubber!:thumb

saturday morning I got my new tires-B.F.Goodrich super sports!WOW smooth and quiet.Cleaned barrels and brake calipers re-painted calipers,checked brake pads-o.k.everthing up to snuff!One question.What pressure to run front to rear?Some say run lower in rear for better wear,my centers wore out...

Thats a lotta miles!I would continue to look.Up your spending money and buy another There are plenty out there!Just my 2 cents.:thumb

that is sad,I always respect power and speed-ALWAYS-and city and town streets are no place for displays of such.Feel sorry for her children.

Thanks Hib-your the best!My vette runs fine,no limit on speed just those pesky abs trac.lites on checked grounds -clean and tight.
