Found a nice 1 owner 03 anniversary, stock, 6 spd convertible with 21,000 miles. Perfect summer driver! Not mechanically inclined just a driver but found a good mechanic to help when necessary.

If I want to enhance a bit; I was thinking of a new dual cone air intake and a x-pipe. Told it will improve HP and sound slightly. Is this true?? What about something like a Diablo to help maximize performance? Seems like reasonable costs for nice benefits. Appreciate readers thoughts.
Thanks!

Sounds like a great find. Welcome to the forum! You may want to post your question in the C5 section. Lots more readers there - not everyone checks the intros.
