Those are from the C7 sub-forum, but those are just the first to pop up from the search. Same principal, different gen.

^ Oh....if anyone needs help with the install, I'd be happy to help. Some folks just can't get contorted like that. It's not easy but not too bad. Let me know, more than happy to help.

As some know, the amount of throttle input is not a 1:1 (ie 10% pedal push is not a 10% throttle opening.), so what this controller does is tries to equalize it a bit more to make it feel more like a cable throttle vs the DBW.

Hey....I'm new to the corvette world and purchased a C7 about 9mo ago. Im looking to up grade the exhaust as I have the standard non NPP option. Im leaning towards the BB PRT or Fusion system but would like to hear and see it in person first.
If anyone has either system or knows someone who does your help will be greatly appreciated...

Anyone here know of someone (individual or company) who can cut an L beam that's about 1/16" thick? I'm making brackets for the CF hood, but a dremel won't exactly make the cut (/BadJoke) in this case...

Well that was fun last night...
I left the meet and stopped to get groceries, and, after I got back in the car and pushed the start button... *click*
"Hmmm...." I turn it off, try it again... *click* ... "Well, crap."
Luckily my place is only 4 blocks from the grocery store. I walked back to my place, loaded up my truck with a travel tool kit and a flash light, and drove back. I remembered other people talking about this same issue and starter solenoids falling apart or wiring melting under the heat of headers w/no heat shields. I pulled the hood to check, and sure enough, the wires on the starter solenoid were loose and the nut had backed off a bit. I also noticed that some of the wiring looked a bit melted and charred. Not good. I tightened the nut back down and the car started back up. Quick 30 min job in a grocery store parking lot at 1030PM. lol
On the bright side, I found a source for the Delco starter solenoid for about $20 - $40 bucks vs the GM Starter Assembly for $500.
On the darker side, I may have to remove the passenger side header to replace it... Ugh.
