Sweet! I'd like to be your Goodyear dealer! :L My 2001 came with Flowmasters when I got it last December, that was one of the selling points for me, I love the sound and the unusual look. Any idea how many HP they add? Can the Vette Doctor folks tell ya? Save the wave! Doc

Well, severe weather has finally come to Oklahoma. My C5 is a daily driver and this is my first severe weather season since I got it last Christmas. I don't intend to have it out during a hail storm but the way Oklahoma weather goes ya never know. Has anyone ever had their C5 hailed on? If so...

If you can find that info it would certainly be interesting to me... Thanks! Doc

I forgot to mention, I have FlowMaster mufflers and K&N FIPK II intake. No other mods...

My 2001 A4 w/ 3.15 rear end does 5.0 sec and 13.3 @ 111 MPH in the qtr mile on my little GTech which may or may not be too accurate, no drag strip around here in the sticks but plenty of WIDE OPEN SPACES to test in. The Corvette Museum data from Chevy says they should be able to do 4.75 with...

Is that 100 octane UNLEADED? Hope so...

I didn't get an answer to my original question so just for the record, you can do this. I installed my K&N FIPK 2 last weekend and it fits fine without cutting the hole in the radiator cover. I didn't want to do that and let in all that crap from the road. We'll see if I have any high...

Has anyone ever installed the K&N FIPK kit (single air filter type) without cutting the opening in the radiator cover? I'm wondering if it will fit. Thanks.... Doc

A friend recommended using 3M's ClearMask (http://www.clearmask.com/) product to protect the front of my C5. He'd used it on several of his cars. I'm wondering if anyone on here has used it and if so, the results? Save the wave! Dave

MIne has the 3.15 rearend also. Is there a way to calibrate the GTech device? I don't think there's a strip any where near here... Thanks, Doc

Finally had time to GTech my new (to me) 2001 QuickSilver coupe. Here's my numbers - 2001 VETTE 12/29/05 53F FULL TANK 3115+220me+135gas=3470lbs total 0-60 Qtr Mile time & speed 5.07 13.39 110.3 w/ traction on the following two w/o traction control, in 'competitive mode' xxxx 13.46 111.2...

Hi there. Just saw your post about the Z06 air lid you put on last summer. I just got a 2001 Coupe which apparently has several mods already on it. I pulled the K&N flat filter out today and putting it back I had some problems and had to pull the air lid. It's very different than the ones I saw...

Hey BossVette, I am thinking about doing the exact same thing on my 2001 with 42,000 on it. I'm getting some ignition noise on the AM side of the radio and need to do something to improve that problem plus I figure it's about time to do the plugs. How has your C5 run since you put in the MSD...

I got the BEST Christmas present ever! A 2001 Coupe! A4, quicksilver, with both roofs and other goodies.... I musta been a good boy this year! Doc

Just got a 2001 Coupe (QuickSilver, M4) low miles and I'm discovering it has some mods. I found the K&N filter (replacement for stock), the FlowMaster mufflers and just today I discovered it has the chip mod that keeps the fans (or maybe just one fan) on all the time to let it run cooler. Now...

Grettings everyone. Santa was very good to me this year. After decades of waiting I finally got a 'vette! A 2001 Coupe, auto, with all the options except the magna-ride. It's in really good condition, like new inside and out and I plan to keep it that way. However, it's got an optional muffler...

We visited last summer, we stayed at the Hampton Inn, they are always nice. We went twice to the factory and once to the museum. Also to Lost River Cave and Mammoth Cave both were nice IF you like caves. We also did a driving tour in the national park around Mammoth Cave which was nice to see...

I had XM free for 3 months on my new 2004 Yukon I bought last year. It was nice while on vacation (my whole vacation consisted of a trip to Bowling Green and the Corvette factory and museum!!!!). But, I seldom used it except on the long road. I'm lucky to have a great FM station (digital even!)...

I will wade into this discussion a bit. First off, my credentials, I've worked as an engineer in a mid-west refinery for 25+ years. I know all the ins and outs of how gasoline is made. The guy quoted above is correct, unless you live close to a refinery (like I do) your gasoline comes down a...

Chris, when you carfax'd it, did it come up as a 97 or 98? The carfax mileage could be wrong, I've checked my cars on it before and it was WAY off. I don't think they made 97 convertibles....
