Default Ordered

Finally found the Cat Back system I decide on in stock and ordered it today.
Still thinking about an X Pipe.
Any suggestions where III can get this installed in the Bradenton, Sarasota area.

Check with AntiVenom.
They are a site sponsor and they have a link icon on the left of this page.

I'm actually trying to stay south of the Skyway if possible and Staurdays are the only day I can have it done.

Hey Rick you might try Jake at Corvette Concepts. He is in east Sarasota county out towards Myaka. His web site is CorvetteConcepts.com. I get all my mods done at Auto XTC in Pinellas Park but you wanted to stay this side of Bridge and a shop open on Saturday. Maybe Jake's Automotive in downtown Bradenton would work also. He's been around quite a while and seems to have a good reputation in the twenty years I've lived here. I've never used him personally. Hope this helps. Are you still cruising with me June 30? Mark

Well I just got an email that the system I ordered was unavailable. To think, I called less then 8 hours before I ordered to check if it was in stock. For a system not many seem to have/like, they are hard to find, especially for a reasonable price.

Hey Rick if that's the case talk to John at Auto XTC. He is one awesome mechanic and a wealth of knowledge. I'm not seeing much of markup with the stuff I order from them.they all drive vettes too. It's a joy to watch John work. He's the only who touches my vette. Larry French is the owner. They are over the Bridge and off Roosevelt Blvd and are only open Mon-Fri. They are worth it though. Their number is 727-573-1292. Tell them I sent you. I'm going up tomorrow am for Z06 sway bars install and carbon fiber fuel rail cover install. Mark

Rick, which system did you go with and where did you try to order them from?

Hi Rick, I was at Auto XTC this morning doing some more mods and told John about your situation. He said if you want, to give him a call and he does work on Saturday by appointment only. He is a wealth of knowledge to bounce ideas off of. He's been working on vettes for over 20 years. He can be reached at 727-244-3821. Tell him I sent you if you call him. Mark

Yep, got em this morning. The engine definitely got a better "bling" and the 06 sway bars definitely lightens the lean into the corners.
