Just checking in here. Recently bought a 2008 Corvette with bolt ons and a small cam. 6 speed car. Love it!! I've had a lot of sports cars and muscle cars and will never get ride of this one. You can say the corvette fever got me. Haha

I found out the original owner is on here and the car was built by Doug Rippie. From what I hear Doug Rippie sure knows his stuff. Going there for a tune!
