Any advice as to how I can get a nicer V8 rumble from my C5, after years of TVR ownership it sounds a little too quiet.

If you have a few greenbacks to spend then checkout this page.

The competition exhaust has no rear mufflers so it will be a lot louder than your standard set up. You could also go for some headers and an X-pipe at the same time to make it really really loud!

High flow cats and a nice cat back will improve things. Swapping the manifold as well is probably the ultimate way to way, no that I know much about vette's

But they are my second fav yank car

our little team had a great convoy thanks, looking forward to next year's event already, just hope it doesn't get to big, there was loads more cars this year than 2002, did you get your check light sorted out or was it just a glitch ?

Well guy's....it's my first time on here.
My vette has the "tri-flow" system on it. These have a nice raspy sound to them. Paul.
