Default '01 Mag Red coupe, 6 speed, 413rwhp/400rwtq

LS1 Z51 coupe, 24,000 miles, HUD, Active Handling, dual climate, etc.

Flowmaster Exhaust, B&M Ripper, installed at HP Performance, Oklahoma City.

1 5/8" TTS Headers, NGK plugs, Taylor Wires, and Vortex Rammer cold air intake from RGinDallas, installed by Speed Works in Lewisville, TX.

Stage 2 Heads, G5 Cam, 3/4" lowering, LGM Motorsports, Dallas.

Ported, diamond pistons installed, and cam centered by Car Analysis and tuned by Ed Wright in Tulsa, OK.

Spec 4 clutch going in soon, along with new Nitto 555s on the rear. The fronts have at least half of their life left.

I've kept the car looking completely stock and I don't even have tips on the exhaust. The car is a runner and I don't want any extra attention.

The 413 dyno numbers are low, but I have not re-dyno'd the car. Comparitively, other cars putting down 400rwTq are also getting 420 or more rwhp. That's a good thing, my engine is not working as hard to get the same power to the ground.

There are NO CATS on this car. It's completely legal in Oklahoma, and women pull their kids off the street when I drive by. I don't have the cats anymore. I get compliments on the sound where ever I take the car. The Flowmasters are odd b/c they sound nothing like Flowmasters I've heard on any other car. With the headers and the removal of the cats, it's fun. :

I'm getting 28mpg on the highway and 17/18 in the city.

If you've never driven a high performance car before, this one is not for you.

Serious offers only.

No, I wear pantyhose over my head and face when I drive so as not to raise any suspicions.

Hey Carl, thanks man. .

One C4 guy on the local board is asking. It'll probably have to go locally since there are no cats.

I'm not in any hurry to sell it, so it's no big deal. I'd rather sell the WRX, though. It's always something. lol

I'm getting a Spec 4 clutch soon, do you know anyone locally I should talk to about it? NEOKCTerror is on my list of people to talk to, I just can't remember why.

Awesome car. When you say "if you've never driven a high performance car... this ones not for you" what exactly do you mean by that? Is it not a daily driver, or just because its not smog legal? What color is the interior, what top options does it have, and what are you roughly looking to get out of it. Feel free to send me a PM if you don't want to expose the price in the ad.

It's fine as a daily driver, great mileage, comfortable, etc. The reason I said that is b/c I see a lot of people get into 500hp cars that don't know how to drive that well, and they get into trouble. Obviously there are faster cars out there, but this thing scares the **** out of people that aren't familiar with cars like this.

The interior is tan and the car has every option except the disk changer. I opted for a single in-dash since changers drive me nuts.

You could put high-flow cats on it, I have no idea what they cost, though. You would have to anywhere but here, I'd think.

PM coming.

Bo and I talked about the Spec-4 last weekend at Thunder Valley. He has installed a few and really likes them for high-horsepower applications.

I was surprised at how much knowledge he had about Corvettes.

I've never met him, but I talked to him about it on the local board. From other's I've talked to, it doesn't chatter like the spec 3 does..

$30,000, firm.

The Spec 4 is here and is getting installed this week along with (edit) Firestone Wide Ovals 295x35x18 on the back.

The Nittos didn't have much problem hooking up when they were new, but hopefully the Firestones w/ the extra rubber on the ground will help.

That's not right, I'm going w/ the Firestones b/c they're bigger and will fit the stock wheels.

Firestone Wide Ovals, 295x35x18. The Nitto 555s will remain on the front.

Hey Ron, good to see you posting. . I'm down for Bricktown any time. In fact, I may be down there tomorrow night for Cinco de Mayo at Chelino's maybe.

How do you like the WRX? I love mine.

As for the vette, I just don't drive it much anymore and I need the garage space.

Thunder Valley has test and tune tonight, I'll be down there on my bike. $16 for cars or bikes, run as many times as you want.

Sean
