On my C3 and C5 I have done may mods to each. One of my friends recently purchased a C6 and was asking me what Mods I thought he should do.
Well, I thought I would consult the experts and see what are some of your favorites.
If you don't mind how about helping this new C6 owner out with your ideas?

Hey Bob I like the sound from the Corsa Exhaust. I have a good friend with those on his Mag Red C5 and they sound great.

I am a looks good but want to go quitely in my C5 but I really like the mellow sound Corsa produces. It really sounds good when you are going through the gears.
I have never seen the Air Raid Intake until now so I don't know much about them. I have the Z06 airbox with an Air Hog filter on my C5 which does a nice job.
Thanks for the posting!

Alot of folks go with a short throw aftermarket shifter. It helps to remove the so call "slop" in between shifting gears. Of course if you do this then you HAVE TO put on a kewl aftermarket shifter handle.......

Vette(s): 2005 Black Coupe
Auto Trans
Corsa Sport Exhaust
AirRaid Intake
Z06 Sway Bars
I'm thinking about the AirRaid Intake & Corsa Sport Exhaust. Most of my mods so far have just been cosmetic, like stainless under hood accesories & race mesh front grill & side vent grills. The car is so ggod as bulit by Chevrolet that I don't really think I need much more than the intake & the cool sound of the Corsa system.
