Humm.. Headers or Gears?
I know both have their advantages. I love that aggressive sound (I have fully opened and baffled exhaust). Headers would only make more heads turn. However, I am torn betten those or Gears. Word had it that they were coming out witha 4.11 gear ratio for our car, and I should keep my eye our for it. I have never geared my car, but I know doing so has other things involved like adjusting my spedo to show the right speed (computer mod right).
If you had a nearly stock C5, and had money for one of the other.. (though it would be nice to buy both), what would you do as your first choice? I keep thinking one, and then I go to the other, and then back again, and its driving me NUTS!
Thanks :)

Gears will help you out more than the headers for a quicker car. for sound you can buy the AA Exhaust mod if you like.

I thought adding headers on an unmodded car was a waste?

Re: Humm.. Headers or Gears? (Travis99C5)
Do the gears first, you know it's a basic must-have mod. You can decide on which header later as your pondering which H/C setup to go with! It is best to get your driveline right first. Besides, it will make you happier quicker!!haha
