*** How to make your A6 Corvette AMAZING! ***
PLEASE DO NOT POST IN THIS THREAD
PLEASE CALL US @ 914-332-0049 IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS
Once upon a time....
There were thousands of Corvette owners.... and most of them bought standard shift cars... But why???
Standard shift cars were cool, macho, FAST, and they were MENS CARS...for REAL MEN.
Historically, what self respecting MAN bought an AUTOMATIC VETTE??????
Well, you know...The guys that couldn't drive stick....or maybe the guy with a bum leg.....the poor guy that had to share the car with his wife....You know the type....
Certainly, most WOMEN bought AUTOMATICS.....They were "GIRL CARS"...easy to drive....smooth...and slow....
They were weak, underpowered, they shifted soft.... for sissys....
You didn't buy and AUTOMATIC cause it was fast....You bought it cause you wanted to look cool....You had no intention of racing....You were only going cruising....
And for the poor guys that bought AUTOMATICS....How they were abused by their STICK DRIVING BUDDIES...Everyone made fun of you for buying an AUTOMATIC....How you got TEASED and TAUNTED for your choice of transmission.....

What self respecting MAN would be caught dead in an AUTOMATIC?????

It's been many years since then...Your feelings were hurt....you felt like a wimp.....people still make fun of you till this day......You always REGRETTED buying that AUTOMATIC VETTE...... If you could only go back in time and change the past..... You would buy the stick shift VETTE, BE COOL, GO RACING WITH THE BOYS, and FEEL LIKE A MAN DRIVING A MANS CAR, and NEVER TURN DOWN A CHALLENGE!!!
FAST FORWARD TO 2006
It's now 2006....You like the C6....It's Cool....Got 400hp....and gets 30 MPG....You wanna get a new Vette....WOW, a 6 SPEED AUTOMATIC is available.... Sounds fun...PADDLE SHIFTERS like STAR WARS! HOW SPORTY! You remember the past....and how you got abused for buying the AUTOMATIC.....
OH NO! It couldn't happen again...It's not possible.....IT's 2006 for GODS SAKE! and IT's a 6 SPEED AUTOMATIC.....SURELY IT'S GOT POWER! GM must have finally got it right!.....400hp RIGHT?
You've grown up....You're older now and more mature.....The Automatic seems like a practical choice.....and you say to yourself......
HECK, the damn thing is near 60 GRAND! IT's got to be fast! Right?
So, you muster up the nerve, plunk down your money, and sign the papers and......YOU NOW OWN ANOTHER AUTOMATIC VETTE!!!
You take museum delivery....You take her home...break her in gently, wait 1,500 miles before you go over half throttle....You do EVERYTHING by the book...Hoping that when the 1,500 miles is up.....YOU'RE GONNA GET A PLEASANT SURPRISE!
You change the break in oil....Head out to the highway....CROSS YOUR FINGERS AND STOMP THE PEDAL.......
YES, JUST LIKE BEFORE...YOU'RE THE PROUD OWNER OF AN AUTOMATIC VETTE...ONCE AGAIN.....
The shifts are soft, acceleration is weak, the PADDLES SUCK.....and you're looking at 5 years of payments for a car that you already know YOU HATE.
YOUR FRIENDS WERE RIGHT AGAIN! THEY BOUGHT STICKS, THEIR CARS ARE FASTER......AND THEY ARE COOL.....
AGAIN, YOU ARE NOT...

Hey Chuck I want the 3.42's but I am not sure of a reliable shop around where I am at. I got your tune in Phoenix when we did it at AZ dyno tunes but I am away for the next 8 months. Who knows maybe I will have it shipped up there and you can do the install and the update on the tune.
