    Cheap Horsepower??

    Exactly what I would and am doing... Leave the motor alone....for now. Yank the pollution crap (if able), Chip it, Work the exhaust (headers and long tubes out the rear), and call Procharger. www.procharger.com Have fun!

    Z06 Convertible Confirmed?

    I personally don't like the Z06. I think the stripped down, non-removable top, no creature comforts idea sucks. I do like the 400+ Hp, wheels, and logo's. IF they made a Z06 Convertable with the 500+ hp I would buy one without even looking at the sticker. It would be mine and only mine...

    Has anyone eliminated their catalytic converter?

    Old man say what they don't know, don't hurt em. Run your "true Dual" exhaust and in place of the Cat run your pipes. Now GUT the cat entirely and slip it over your fancy exhaust and weld it into place. It Looks like its there and with resonators in it sounds like its there....But it ain't...

    WOT delay....wtF!

    The tanks are "lacking" splash baffles in the tank (famous chev) so G-Force will play a huge role in the tank. Similar with drag racers and oil pans, they want massive pans with baffles so the engine doesn't run dry with accelerating.

    Smoke in the mirror

    When you do your spark plugs do a compression test this may tell you that your pistion rings are worn out. Also throw a master oil pressure gauge on it while doing this. This will rule out any possible oil/combustion leaks except for valve seal which ALWAYS go on these engines...mine included...

    Digital Cluster problem

    Common problem is the bridge connector between the two circut boards. If you remove the tin backing you will see a 1 inch long by 1/4 inch white plastic bar. If you look under that circut board you'll see the leads go up into that plastic piece and commonly get loose and short out. Try...

    Purchased my 1st vette + question to German C4 owners

    Personally, the car seems "high" caliber so I would REMOVE the orginal bumper and put on a aftermarket one painted to match (you can't tell the difference) Then go ahead and cut the Fog light into the bumper. Just don't hack up the original!!

    Did I drop it too much?

    If you can't lower the front I'd try to get the rear level with the front myself. The cars Ive seen "up" in the front like that are tuner dragsters (front wheels driving Hoosiers....ugh)

    Falken Tires

    No Idea they sure made it sound like I was ordering something special! so far they are very nice and very comparable to my XGT V4's I had on there before (only for half the price!) Gotta round up some pictures still

    Falken Tires

    FINALLY got my rims in and may I say SWEET! They are CHROME I wasn't expecting that at all!! And they are perfect in all details!! I had the Falkens put on and balanced internally and when they were done there was hardly and weights in there! The machine shop balanced them perfectly! Also...

    This may be a dumb question, but...

    Im gonna ask why? Are you mounting a early C4 roof on a late? the hardware of the late models is FAR better for shifting and noise. (Trust me I own the early one and HATE it) Im going to change to a glass top with the late model hardware.

    C4 advantages over C5?

    I remember a few years ago Motor Trend or one of those high up the ladder magazines did a worlds fastest car thing and had Mario Andretti do the driving. Mclaren, HKS Toyota, Ferrari were all there and also J.Lingenfelter with two vettes one C4 and one C5 done up to the max! After driving...
