new things..nothing big. the right size gears finally came in(3.73's), and added the exhaust tips from a c4 vette. they aren't completely adjusted in the pic but you get the idea. I thought they fit the bumper better than the stock tips.

Go with Advanced Induction. Their CNC programs on 243's and 706's make more power than Trick Flow or AFR for half the price and aftermarket rockers aren't required.
