New C5 owner questions
Just sold my '92 and bought an '04 coupe. Now, the first thing I need to do is buy a cat back system and then I've got some questions about air filters. On the '92 I used the K&N. Is that also what folks use on the C5s? Any other options? As far as the exhaust, I've been following the threads in the C5 sections and see there are quite a few options for systems and each person has their reason for liking or not liking one or the other...that's just natural. I've listened to the Corsa, B&B, Borla. I've not hear the GHL or Magnaflow. I had the Flowmaster cat back on the '92 and loved it. I'm probably going with the Magnaflow with X pipe just from what I've read. Comments??
Thanks for your input.

Re: New C5 owner questions (Oldad)
Thanks Oldad, I gotta work on that website. The link in your sig didn't work for me, either. :(
As far as the exhaust, I got used to the aftermarket sound and I'm looking to get it back.

Mark, you only have 41K on your '92, that's great! I wish I could have kept them both but I had over 155K on it and it was starting to cost me $$. Plus, there was only so much room at the house for cars. (The husband has 2 cars already). I've had the '04 a month and have over 2000 miles on it already. It's gonna be a driver like the '92 and it's gonna be just fine. :yesnod:
