Performance modifications on new C5
I have an unmodified 2001 C5 Convertible. I am planning the following upgrades and would appreciate any feedback. My goal is to raise the performance level of my C5 to that of a stock ZO6. Here are my thoughts:
Donaldson air filter, Ceramic coated long-tube headers, B&B Route 66 Sport exhaust and the B&M Ripper Shifter. The car will be computer calibrated and dynotuned . The work will be done by a professional Corvette performance company.

:seeya Welcome to the forum!
Your off to a good start but the intake and the exhaust are just the beginning if your shooting for 335RWHP as the Z06 does.The TPIS headers will help alot but that means pulling the cats. :rolleyes: and a do the x-pipe ,that will help with the torque. :chevy

That includes sending your computer off to get a new program burned in.
Good luck - the spending never stops
