While "it" is not much, the sum of the parts are beautiful, and make it special.

I like your splash screen on the Pioneer radio. Did you make it?
I just have a generic C5 logo on mine.

Everything else looks awesome too BTW

Wow Mr Bill! 50 HP; that's great.

I just installed my leather console from DDMods and I'm in the process of installing my powder coated calipers. Do you have any estimate of what my HP gain will be? I'm thinkin "Look out ZR1's".

The new fuel rail sure does look good - a very nice addition to your car.

I was talking to a fellow corvette owner a couple of weeks ago and he told me his mechanic said he could add 200 horsepower if he installed a new chip.

He said this with a straight face. He argued with me when I told him that was impossible. I told him to switch mechanics.
