I love mine, definitly felt power gains just wondering whats not to like?

Someone told me around $500. Other than that I haven't heard anything negative. -------------------- Dan http://usera.imagecave.com/Smokensparks/00vetteside-copy.jpg Posts: 1520 | From: Nevada | Registered: Aug 2004  |  IP: Logged |  jrose7004 Full Throttle Member Member # 3590 posted                        I just installed a Blackwing and called it good.

It is a good looking unit just not worth $500 to me. To each their own. I even know some people that prefer the manual over the automatic trans... go figure Posts: 3011 | From: Pennsylvania | Registered: Jul 2001  |  IP: Logged |  J.B. Section Moderator Member # 56 posted                        500 is kind of steep but I have heard its a quality piece.... Hard to say whats the right way to go when modding.. No right or wrong way to go....and callaway does make quality products. -------------------- 2008 Black/blk C6 Z51 NPP M6 2008 Silver/blk CTS FE2 AWD 304hp Posts: 9580 | From: North East | Registered: Dec 2000  |  IP: Logged |  clark Just Started the Engine Member # 7131 posted                        Thanks for all the replies, I have heard people say you dont want a bottom feeder.I Guess all that matters is that I am happy with the product.

I have tended to experiment so when I saw a barely used Honker with the cowling I bought it for $268. The piece is very well made maybe better than OEM. I am concerned about how it will function in the rain and I am sure it will require more frequent cleaning as anyone who has looked at or cleaned their AC condenser will attest it get dirty up in there. MTI Racing tends to use the Honker on all their mods so I do expect good results. -------------------- 2000 6M Pewter Metallic Convertible, Donaldson Blackwing, Z06 intake manifold, Kooks headers w/ Random high flow cats & X pipe, Corsa Pace Car Tiger Sharks, Bilsteins, Z06 Springs,Hotchkis Sway Bars and Links, BBS LM Wheels, Hurst, EFILive Tuning Posts: 196 | From: Norcross, Ga. | Registered: May 2003  |  IP: Logged |  Quick Reply Message: HTML is not enabled.
