Congrats! The C5's are great cars. I added mine about 8 months ago. They are a completely different animal compared to the c3 (and C4 for that matter). Enjoy the power and the ride !

An ECS blown C5 is going to be nothing but fun. I'm friends with the guys over there and they really know how to built fast, reliable cars...enjoy it

Every Corvette owner driver NEEDS a C5 just because they ride much more comfortably then the older ones... LOL

Seriously I've owned my 98 since it was new and I take it on any drive of over 200 miles because all 5 of my older (c2 3 c3;s and a c4) cars just plain wear me out after a hundred of so miles BUT baby I sure smile more when driving the older cars then I do the C5 no interest in a C6 basically for that reason...

Default totaled first 04 verte

I totaled the first 04 verte after supercharger was added man they really add imediate power.
The guy at the repair shop told me that someone came in and said you got a vette with barbed wire stuck in it, and he said no I have some barbed wire with a vette stuck on it!!!!!!!!!!!
