Default Finally a Corvette!

Yeeeha guys!

I have finally bought myself a Vette!
A 1999 Mod, but registrated first in April 2001!

My mods are:
Supersprint exhaust
K&N Filter with opened stock airbox
Modifyed Throttlebody.

Any suggestions what to do next?
I´m a little low on cash so i would appreciate som tips on low-budget tuning... :(

Should i keep or remove the cats? Will that do any difference?

Now i finally realize what you guys are talking about!

:cheers: :cheers: :cheers:
