Welcome to the CAC. Where in Atlanta are you located?
One of the reason I sold my 77 was the difficulty finding someone who could work on it. I eventually found Jim Watson up in Blairsville. 706-781-6789. It's a haul but he is that good going back a long way with Corvettes. He has a metal...
There is a fairly complex, at least to me, set of actuators that are controlled by vacuum that controls that. I had the same problem with my 77, which I sold so I didn't have to fix it. LOL. I have some information here though it really doesn't address this issue but will give you some of the...
Muffler and X-Pipe Were Put on Today
I finally found some time to have everything put on today. The sound is fantastic. A rumble at idle, a roar under acceleration and not even noticeable cruising at freeway speeds. I went round and round, the price wasn't cheap, but feel like this was a...
X-pipes arrived today. Mufflers tomorrow. If they get here early enough I'm going to take them to my muffler shop and have them installed. This is graduation weekend for my son and I won't have any time to do it myself. And I can't wait until the next weekend.
Amazon was a little higher at $1,286 with free shipping. They will be delivered Tuesday. Still contemplating putting them on myself. I also ordered the X-pipe.
Thanks for everyone's input. I've decided to go with the Corsa and will be ordering them tomorrow. Amazon has the best price I could find at just under $1,300.
The Corsa Sport is the fall back position while I look at other options. It's expensive but a known quantity.
I had come to the conclusion that Hib has shared, that the Z06 option gets expensive quickly.
I put the Flowmaster Delta 50's on my C3. I loved the sound. The problem was the...
The used Z06 exhausts appear to be going for around $250 though, unlike the C5 setup, it doesn't appear to be a straight swap.
Is there any drone with the Borla's?
I'm looking to upgrade the exhaust on my 2006 and have been looking at the Corsa Sport, a very pricey alternative.
Yesterday, Hib replied to an exhaust upgrade question in the C5 Forum that a used 2001-2004 Z06 exhaust would be an option on a 1999FRC C5 at a much more reasonable cost.
Does...
Thanks for ther info Hib. I may hang out over at the Z06vette.com and see what I can find. Those guys seem to be changing exhaust quite a bit.
I have an 06 automatic with paddle shifters. Are any of the C6 Z06 exhausts going to fit or do I need to limit it to cerain years, models, etc?
The Corsa has a good reputation. I had it on a Hemi and really liked the sound. It had none of the dreaded drone that some exhausts are prone to. I plan on putting the Sports on my C6 this summer.
