Default Spring is here time for my first mod

Today I turned 241,000 miles. So I figure lets do a mod. A buddy gave me his old B&B exhaust.

During lunch today I put them on. Next I'll put on the Vararam CAI

Your avatar scares the crap out of me. Hope you're driving a very heavily tinted fixed roof coupe.

Btw, congrats on the huge amount of miles. What problems have you encountered at such high miles? I always imagined a C5 being a nightmare at high miles since it's got a million sensors (and thus a million potential failures/repairs). Aside from changing the belts, oils, and tires...what is required to get a C5 up that high?
