Do an intake, a thermostat and a tune is cool. Personally these cars are fast enough stock. I might suggest doing a corvettes of westchester COW booster.
It recaps the throttle response to a more linear relationship and makes the c5 and c6 much more responsive.
It's a blast..
Contact chuck for his suggestion...
I love mine...
My last c5 z06 I did cam headers gears and it was fun.
My c6 z51 with the mods I mentioned make this car even better. This car is so good. I've owned it since new and now has 106k reliable miles it's too good to sell.
After the intake..I did the cow booster..it transformed the ownership experience..
I did the computer tune and thermostat for a little added fun after.
Cow booster would be ,my next mod if I were you..
It's like a hundred bucks..maybe two...
Best money I ever spent...
You think it and the car does it...
I really didn't need to faster than the stock car which tops out at 190 mph...
I just wanted it to me more responsive and intuitive to my commands behind the wheel..
Good luck deciding...

JerriVette, just an FYI, anyone can do the throttle modification to a C5.
We do not charge additional for that.

Cool Doug...I didn't know and I hope you are doing well...
I always have fond memories of us hanging out down at English town back in 1999 and 2000...running the corvette challenge.

That 12-14 year stretch of the Corvette challenge was absolutely some of the best racing ever! Very educational too for someone in my line of work, I do miss it, but with little ones going racing every weekend all day would be a little much now.

Chuck great customer service already.
Thanks To Chuck I gave him a call on a whim tonight about tuning my auto c6. He really ran it all down I think I will go with his tune and the 342 gears ..
