DANG THAT THING IS AWESOME!!!!! I think it’s perfect! It’s a great balance of “OMG IS THAT A MARLBORO RACE CAR!?” Mixed with “That’s the most bad ass midlife crises I’ve ever wanted to have” love it, keep up the kick ass work
87,000 miles on my stock 03 Z06, Black with polished stock wheels! Love it! Someone the other day said it looks like a spies car😀. I recently found it has the bad yellow valve springs, so I’m trying to drive it easy until I can replace them. I just tore my left ACL, so it might be a while😬
I used to take my 75 Stingray to Bandimere drag strip, it had a 355 SBC with aluminum heads, a big cam, and a Weiand 142 supercharger, 3.70 gears and a 400 th automatic. It was a relatively low mile car. Everyone loved that I would drive it like I stole it! It was a lot of fun. It ran 13.0 @ 116mph, on BFG street radial tires, with some traction issues. That was 20yrs ago! And boy, do I wish I had it back.
I mean I think it's pretty cool. The after exhaust is such an improvement it's night and day. Us younger/mid age people are finally getting to the age to be able to afford these toys and it's nice when you see one getting driven by someone not 65+. And that Jimmy rigged system to get some air in is so simple yet so genius good job.
Your quality definitely shows, it doesn't sound like a loud annoying straight pipe it sounds like every cylinder is coming together to make a symphony 👏
258,000 miles on my 2002 Z06 and counting…mostly stock (A Street allowable mods) with an axle back Corse Extreme exhaust, track alignment, and yellow Konis. I love it and may modify it as I near retirement age/ability to access my 401k $$$…lol ❤❤❤
Love the air conditioning solution. It absolutely fits the car much better. Even if all the OEM air conditioning stuff was still in the car. For this car, I would choose your solution over the OEM solution As for the before and after sounds bits. Instead of posting all the before sounds bits, parking lot, right drive by, left drive by. Then immediately post all the after sound bits, parking lot, right drive by, left drive by. To get a better audio comparison, try this Post the before parking lot audio, then immediately post the after parking lot audio. Post the before right drive by audio and immediately post the after right drive by audio. And so on and so on. More editing for your editor, I think the payoff will be worth it. Mullets for lift 😂
The exhaust is significantly better after. I'd argue that Corvette was already corrupted when it was stripped and modded to race car spec. After that, go nuts.
Hell yeah!! Let the old soccer mom's/ old corvette owners cry about it! I'm almost 48 years old and like to see someone have the balls to do something different!
OJ I’m a life long Corvette guy…got my 1st one at 16 years old (72 454 4 spd rag) and have had about 20 since. (Latest 2024 Z06 Rag)…I love what you did with that C5Z and I’m sure the owner does as well. Ever consider selling the 3 tip muffler system with the mid x pipe as a kit? Have you ever installed a turbo or two on a C5? My Son has a 2002 Z06 and we would love to boost it. Excellent video! Keep them coming.
OJ! This is by far your best video! Very much like the content and the channel. More megaphones! You have Alex’s Super Penlight! I have one too! I was at your place last summer when Alex had his meet there. Next time I hope to meet you! I have a modified C5 so this is really cool for me! Great stuff!!
thumbs up for the humble hair joke :D If I ever can afford your shop, I'm there Personally; I'd want to try to take the sound to the old, deep rumbly muscle cars; less the track monster sound. I think what you did was beautiful. I wouldn't drive it with that livery, but I can respect what it is and its not my car, so the exhaust is great for them and most others I'm sure! thank you for giving us these videos
Sweet job brother , it doesn’t matter what anyone else thinks or says and I know you know that but I think it’s funny how some people think they’re opinion matters lol.
Intro was much better this week. Pretty funny too. I realize your ship is probably crazy busy, but this would have been way more interesting to see the actual install of the intake, tuning, etc.
The project has been ongoing since 2019… exhaust in 20 intake was done in 22… it’s back in for some maintenance and little issues over winter and we had a gap between projects while waiting for parts. I told cody let’s throw some megaphones on this thing (on our dime for the views) but didn’t want to make an exhaust only video so we filled in the gaps about what’s been done. Appreciate the comments, we’re trying to get better!
I'm building a C5 Z06 track car myself. Little at a time because as you know nothing is cheap on these cars. Just bought the Holley Terminator x max, OMP Halo seat, But that exhaust is insane with the megaphones. Any reproduction plans? Love it
wonder what it would sound like if you put the left megaphone facing forwards, and the right one facing backwards. Might create some kind of interesting out of phase sound that's unique
You need to read Corvette From The Inside and then you will understand the transverse composite monoleafs. They took 79lbs off of the chassis for the C4 and refused to fail after over two million cycles. They outperform a steel coil spring and aren't as susceptible to failure due to surface imperfections.
People love to bash on the leaf springs in Corvettes, but it's kinda silly, they work really well. All engineering is a trade off. C5 Z06 is the poor mans super car, mine makes 640RWHP on the stock 121k mile bottom end with a A&A kit and weighs 3100lbs. Toyo R888's on all corners, it's a great car and has been reliable. Purists are anti hot rod, they like boring.
Naww, this is all good. I'm not worried about destroying a C5Z06. I am curious about the dry sump oiling system, though. If you guys do more content on this car please show the reservoir, oil pan and vacuum lines, and the pump. How it's rigged, etc. Is it a jones racing assembly with cogged belts or what. What dry sump company. Good job. As you can see, the C5 game is heavy!!
Execution looks very good. Exhaust is an improvement. Is this a street car, or optimized for autocross or track days? Or drag racing? Cool shirt would be more effective if customer is wearing a fire suit. The Gurney flap in the back is very effective at low speed, and horribly inefficient above 60 mph. Ideally rear aero is balanced by a front device.
I love all the R/D experience you're sharing. If I was richer I'd send my 2024 Aprillia RSV4 and ask you what more can you do to make this sound deeper and more appreciated. The 4 valves per cylinder has more potential than just installing an open slip on. I only ask cause everything you've done is from experience and science. Aside from that drive on Big Kahuna.
A Corvette that actually gets driven is always so sick to see.
That's the way a Corvette should be built ❤🇺🇸
DANG THAT THING IS AWESOME!!!!!
I think it’s perfect! It’s a great balance of “OMG IS THAT A MARLBORO RACE CAR!?” Mixed with “That’s the most bad ass midlife crises I’ve ever wanted to have” love it, keep up the kick ass work
142,000+ miles on my 01 Z06.
LOVE MY car. Every time I get outta work I get excited to drive it.
Sound is proper old school racecar.
That's exhaust sounded amazing both way but the after was definitely cooler

It def sounds better.

Awesome video it actually sounds better after the megaphones! Great job and great video!!
Nailed it with the exhaust. Sounds significantly better.
Criminally underrated channel.
100%, have been following these guys since their e90 with velocity stacks. Which is still one of the best sounding cars I have heard
The hair and Glasses is what keeps me coming back to this channel!! 😘😘😘😝
NAILED! LOOKS awesome too!
iv been waiting for this one for awhile!!! i look forward to the moment in the video i can hear it
Being that it was a track car, it needed that extra touch..I own a 01 z06, and wouldn't consider doing this. But, to each their own...great job
Seen that c5 before. Sounds amazing.
Perfect ...I love it !!!
That after sound nailed it man, that car sounds amazing and looks great. Another awesome video man keep up the awesome work.
Well done!
Super sweet sounds with the new exhaust! Absolutely Love the livery too!
That’s a huge burst panel for an NA car! I like it!
I mean I think it's pretty cool. The after exhaust is such an improvement it's night and day. Us younger/mid age people are finally getting to the age to be able to afford these toys and it's nice when you see one getting driven by someone not 65+.

Love it! Keep it up.
1:10 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I love it! The wrap.... the motor.... the exhaust.... this car is amazing!

F*@k I think it sounds way better, great job!
This was some of your better content. Great work.
Awesome C5 Z06 build love the livery design! and complete build I so be ripping that Z!
Sounds like a beast, looks killer!
The megaphone made a huge difference, that thing sounds so good now.
“What the f*** is going on indeed” definitely gotta add the galaxy gas now.
Love the air conditioning solution. It absolutely fits the car much better. Even if all the OEM air conditioning stuff was still in the car. For this car, I would choose your solution over the OEM solution

Keep it up man! Corvette = Smiles Per Gallon!
Perfection. 🤘🏻

Another Excellent job!
Sounds great!
Feel like that’s a good candidate for a 8into1 collector.
Hell yeah!! Let the old soccer mom's/ old corvette owners cry about it! I'm almost 48 years old and like to see someone have the balls to do something different!
I really like the megaphone sound 🔥
Sounds wicked
Hell yeah! Badass Bowtie 💯🔥💪🇺🇲

"Harlin Sharp"rockers......... Lol
Sounds and is overall much better!🎉🎉🎉
I wish I lived closer to these guys
Looks good and sounds good!
Love it !!

Great stuff!!
It definitely looks better
I'm not really much into that wrap, But I love the car and I love the sound. I'm more of a nice custom color paint job. Kind of guy.
Mullet... Brilliant 😂😂
Bravo, that result was epic. They should sound like that stock.
But the teal ACR in the background? Just hanging out like it's an Accord.
lol had to check back
Damn that sounds insane
thumbs up for the humble hair joke :D If I ever can afford your shop, I'm there

Those CCW’s 🤤!!!
Sweet job brother , it doesn’t matter what anyone else thinks or says and I know you know that but I think it’s funny how some people think they’re opinion matters lol.
I love it!
if i was to have a corvette this would be it this is so sick!
That definitely helped! Those flames are rad too.
Sounds bad ass!
Man, now I want to keep my C5Z and bring it to you.
Definitely sounds better after great job good content
lol at the mullet bit
Sick Vette!
You guys did a great job! Those are some respectable numbers to the rear wheels for N/A car
Especially on our dyno. A hellcat makes 490ish…
Was trying to figure out where the name came from until I saw the wrap, quite clever!
C5 love is awesome. We need more options. Wish you could mass produce the exhaust system

@@FluidMotorUnion work of art really
Sweet mullet!
Looks good
nice car, channel, shop and biceps, brother.
Side skirts are one of the best visual mods.
As a guy who drives the shit out of my c5z. I love this. I’m anti car show pro track day
BAD TO THE BONE!💯

Back in the early 90’s, Marlboro did a Marlboro GMC Syclone giveaway. I believe there were 30 trucks.
Just enough !
wonder what it would sound like if you put the left megaphone facing forwards, and the right one facing backwards. Might create some kind of interesting out of phase sound that's unique
What were those coil mounts you used?
Nasty
I did this to my c5 in 2013! It triggers almost no one!
Marlboro!
Killer corvette. If I had the money, I’d throw it at you to build one for me. 👍

Yep... your hairdo is the reason I subscribed 😅
it sounds much better after your work.
Vets are a dime a dozen Rod that thing😂!!
I wanna put a megaphone tube on my silverado now
The C5 is my favorite sports car 😍🔥🇺🇲😎
imagine megaphones with an 8-4-1 exhaust system
Car matches hair and mustache
Yea people are strange when it comes to corvettes. The ones who don't own one really like my corvette , but other owners really really don't 😂.
