Default Spring is on the way

LS1LT1: "I only have a few hundred miles on it ....... can't wait til it's fully broken in." You're going to love it. BTW, should you decide to do any mods, the best functional mod for the C6 is a good set of longtube headers w/highflow cats. Not only will you gain around 30 hp at the rear wheels, the stock exhaust note seems to develope a very nice deep rich baratone sound with no noticeable interior drone at highway speeds.

While you are at it, you might as well go for the larger rubber that Lusky is running Hey guys if you can (when the tracks up here open) we still need at bone stock A6 to make a run!

If I ultimately do long tubes I will likely keep the stock cat back as well, thanks for the info.
