Hi from Newfoundland, Canada!

Hey guys,

Just got my first Corvette last week, am '02 hatchback. It has a caold air intake and Magnaflow exhaust. I want to do a few things and want it to have that old school badass loud idle (spitting and sputtering etc). Is this possible and what's needed? Cam and headers?

What would you recommend and would love to hear your car if you've done these upgrades already!

Thanks and pleasure to be here!

Ron

Welcome, but suggestions for things to do to your car are better sought in the C5 sections of the forum. Hope to see you posting there.
