headers, tune, intake im about to order obx longtube headers, bbk ssi intake and tb, and bassani catback for my 03 corvette. i want to tune it too. any ideas as to what kinda tune i should do. and what kinda numbers should i be able to put down with this setup. otherwise it is a stock car other then a cold air intake
There is a big difference in a cheap pair and a good pair. Just make sure you have them made from the appropriate material. Mild steel = cheap pair Stainless = good pair. But, some people aren't entirely honest about what they are selling. Its too bad if they know and just pretend to believe its not 304 but rather higher quality. Just do your research. You will get more replies.

all the reviews ive seen about them people seem to love them. so far the only people to put them down are those who say they have never owned them. and the ones i was looking at are 304 stainless. anything else i should look for?
Main thing is just to get something that has good fittament and clearance. Just has always made me wonder why they can sell them so cheap and other companies that sell the like are all pretty competitively priced right next to each other. I can tell you QTP and Kooks are made out of good material and have quite a bit of $ put into R&D. That all factors into what you are paying for. Don't forget customer service and satisfaction. I wouldnt spring for the ebay ones if I knew that they were chinese steel and stolen designs. So thats the dilemna usually.

i've read his tunes are pretty spot on. after i get my mail order i plan on putting it on a dyno to verify a/f ratio and then sending it back to him to make changes, if necessary.
