Default Preview of my new C7

Thanks to Speed Inc in Schaumburg, my C7 finally sounds as good as it looks, and performs at a higher level. Adding an aFe intake, Texas Speed long tube headers with their catless x-pipe, and ending with a beautiful Corsa Xtreme exhaust has really waken up the already awesome engine. Next up will be some aero on the way from G3Carbon.com The wheels are the Z51 machine face with Alloy Gators for protection and style with one-off Jake inspired center caps I created. I hope by viewing the pics and video, you can get some sense of how much I'm enjoying this amazing machine.

Here's a video
