Gotta get it on the road first!! But that is the plan, a nice moderate cam, kooks headers and catless xpipe. Then a tune. Ive been thinking, however, just to do headers and xpipe, my problem is for the money it will cost say:

1. $1000+ for headers
2. $600+ for xpipe
3. $500+ for cam and springs
4. $450 for the tune (about)

Is all that money and labor really worth the extra, what, 35-40 wheel horse? Im still debating over it. Either way, i wont be doing any of that until the end of this season anyways. I just want to tint the windows and drive it this summer.

THATS exactly what i was thinking about. In a few years when this cars paid off. I can buy a Procharger kit run 6-8lbs of boost and make about 580-600 whp. The P1-SC kit is $6400. Includes absolutely everything, injectors, brackets, fuel pump, belt, head unit, even a plug in tuner for the setup.

With that HP and a good clutch i could probably tap into the high 10’s

Just for shits and giggles i went on [compnine.com](http://compnine.com) to run my vin and this is what it came back as

There are **2** 2001 CORVETTE NOTCHBACK vehicles (0.035%) matching your exact options list. There are **7** (0.121%) with _at least_ as many options.

I also just looked at the title, weight is 3042 brett, i was wrong before.

Go on [www.corvetteforum.com](http://www.corvetteforum.com) c5 section/ parts for sale and you can buy alot of if not all of the things you want for a fraction of the price, and most the guys on there are good to deal with. fwiw

Awesome!!! It looks nice man. If the weather holds out next weekend we should meet up. You can show me yours, i’ll show you mine. 😉

But seriously, you were quoted WAY high on the headers and xpipe. They have amazing deals on [CorvetteForum.com](http://CorvetteForum.com) I just saw a deal for LT headers and catless xpipe (w/ cats or w/o) for $700. Brand new.

You can pick up a good cam for $300. Shop around and you will find good deals.
