    My New Speeder

    I have been without a vette for the past 4 years due to the little ones. Last weekend, the withdrawals got bad and I could hold out no longer.

    Here are 505 horses of therapy.

    Im more or a 300/charger/challenger guy myself but the newer Vets really step it up. Looks good, get rid of the ****** stock exhaust and put some big mother pipes in that bad boy and let it scream!

    No such thing as "ricer" exhaust on a vet. You put a sick exhaust on it and the car would sound throaty as hell

    I actually saw a silver Z06 today with a borla set up. It sounded so sweet.....

    Intake
    headers
    exhaust
    cams
    NITROUS!!!

    Those new motors run so well with atht set up making well over 700hp with just a 100 shot!

    Sweet ride OZ sweet ride

    Thanks guys.

    It actually has the dual mode NPP exhaust. I removed the fuse so the baffles are always open. I started it and set off my neighbors alarm. It sounds amazing. I will rig a switch soon so I can turn it off and on as needed.

    Re: My New Speeder

    ...must be a great feeling to grab yourself a vette...much less Z06 that will stomp anything.

    to be honest chevy is by far not my favorite brand, but i've always had a soft spot for any corvette, and older camaros and monte carlos

    i would have gotten that awesome blue color though...i think it's a special corvette color

    Thanks.

    The exhaust sounds really good now.

    The heads up display and nav are great but the stereo is terrible.

    I need to work on that I guess.

    Re: My New Speeder

    Why the heck do american cars have those massive horsepowers if you arenīt allowed to drive faster than 50 miles inside the USA? All those speedlimits, isnīt that annoying??? Or has something changed until now?

    I love to live in germany where you are able to drive that speed the cars are built for!

    just kidding ... Nice car! I am jealous!
