Default dynatech headers are on, the difference is astounding

Picked up the C6 around 5 today. What a difference.

The sound is absolutely amazing, nothing like the sound of only the Corsa Sports. The sounds of the raw power of the car explode as you push the pedal.

The C6 with the Dynatech Supermaxx headers sounds aggressive when winding thru the gears, yet when cruising, the cabin sound is amazingly quiet. As a matter of fact, it is as quiet as when I just had the original headers with and the Corsa Sports.

You can feel the difference thru the gas pedal! All I wanted to do on the way home on I-95 was push the pedal to the floor.

The sound is like, well, I guess you have to hear it yourself and make that determination. I used to want to replicate the sound of the 5.0 stang, now that sound is tame. I guess the closest sound I can think of in comparison is a Ferrari or a Lamborghini.

It is absolutely worth the money. I highly recommend the Dynatech Supermaxx system.

Jeff

Rodger Preston from HorsePower Sales in Pompano Beach. He runs vettes and really knows his stuff. He's the one who recommended that I purchase the Dynatechs and my Corsa Sports.

There really was not any thing but a positive reaction from my wife. We just celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary and I bought her a new diamond ring (4 carats). I did not ask for anything at the time. So, when I indicated that I wanted to put headers on the vette, she told me to have fun................

somehow I think she got the better deal out of this!
