Breathless Performance Functional C5 Diffuser
If you guys want to push the issue pertaining to the BPP "functional" diffuser please email Ernie at Breathless Performance and give him your thoughts.
President of Breathless Performance:
Ernie Francis
ernie@breathlessperformance.com
Ernie responded to one of my emails about a month ago and stated; "It may be summer time before we can get around to starting that. It really depends on how much interest there is." So if you guys want to see one of these things actually materialize, either make your own or start emailing Ernie
. Think of it as writing a letter to your Congressman. I am hoping that they will offer the same exhaust orientation options for the C5 as they do for the C6, but we will see.
Their current C6 diffuser line-up consists of the following:
C6/C6Z06 rear diffuser for use with re-designed "centralized exhaust":
Price: $2,500.00 (w/ CES custom center exit exhaust which is $1,000.00 by its self)
C6/C6Z06 rear diffuser for use with stock and all aftermarket exhaust:
Price: $1,500.00

I sent them a PM last week requesting this. Would love the 2-tip setup on my Z06.

Very cool. I wonder how much functionality is lost by making it work with stock style exhausts.

Don't write a Congressman. He'll steal the idea, start is own business, using his interns, and put a tax on everyone else.

If anyone is interested please email me and I will include you on our email list for pics and info.

This was Ernie's reply in the other diffuser thread. Looks like we got our point across.
