billywallstreet73 Junior Member Registered: 02/03/04 Posts: 23 Loc: Miami Beach	I got my 2000 black auto vert last month 28k miles with 315gears.I just got the blackwing installed 2 weeks ago and now the guy who does my work at the chevy dealer has a set of borla stingers used with the dual tips and a corsa x pipe used.He said he would sell me both and do the install for 950 out the door.It seems like a pretty good deal to me.I just hope I can get around 12 to 16 rwhp for the catback and xpipe.I have an appointment for wed to have the install and cant wait to get rid of this weak a$$ sounding stock exhaust.I like a loud system like I had in my cobras so hopefully the stinger and xpipe will do the trick.

I know that corsa x pipe can be pricey, but the borlas shouldn't cost a lot. search around to see what vendors are selling those parts for new before accepting the offer. _________________________ Cheers, Chris Lee "Blue Lightning" Brrr!

leadfoot Full Throttle Member Registered: 07/31/01 Posts: 4788 Loc: Pennsylvania	TOO MUCH money! I would put the value of the parts @ $500 - 600 at max 100 for install is a nice rate for what is involved. imho counter with $600 see what happens. You know the deal "baby needs new shoes" _________________________ SOLD MY C5 Looking for my next one
