Default Corvette Performance Package?

Can anyone tell me their opinions on whether this is worth the $$ or not?:

It looks sort of shady, however, if it does increase my car to 8 RWHP without causing any problems for my car, I think it'd be worth it.

Don't waste your money. Talk to people who know a lot about vettes and ask them for honest vendors they know. Honest vendors will tell you what to buy and what not to buy. I sent back almost $1,000 worth of stuff that I was advised really wouldn't do much good. Unfortunately, everyones mods sound good on their website even the ones that don't work.

Other than the spacer, they're fairly common mods, and the spacers are starting to get some play.

I wouldn't pay more than $100, tho. You can get the coupler for $50 and the bypass for $10-15 from most of the vendors here.
