FCOR-0446 C6 Corvette Stainless Steel Long Tube Headers

Marking the sixth generation of its legacy, the 2005 Chevrolet Corvette delivers more power, passion and precision to reach a new standard of performance car excellence. It will be introduced at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit in January 2004, with production slated to begin in the third quarter. A convertible version will be unveiled in the first half of 2004, with its production beginning in fall 2004.

Z51 Performance Package. The Z51 Performance Package brings Corvette Coupe performance very close to the same level as the widely admired Z06. The Z51 offers more aggressive dampers and springs, larger stabilizer bars, and larger, cross-drilled brake rotors for optimum track performance capability while still providing a well-controlled and comfortable ride. Extensive racetrack testing reveals that a C6 equipped with the Z51 suspension almost equals the lap time of a C5 Z06 - marking a major advance in the overall performance of a Corvette Coupe by nearly approximating the extreme performance capabilities of the vaunted Z06 at a remarkable value

Corvette engineers thoroughly revised the Tremec gear box and added proprietary technology not offered on other automakers' high-performance transmissions. The six-speed transmission also has revised gearing when selected with the Z51 performance option. With the Z51, the Tremec is tailored with numerically higher gears to improve acceleration. Also, a lower fifth gear gives the Z51 better fuel efficiency and a higher top speed than base models. To increase durability in sustained high-speed situations, the Z51 and the base European manual-transmission models have a transmission cooler.

The x-pipe section evens the exhaust pulses with a sycronized crossover in the center section, resulting in a deeper, smoother tone. The Route 66 system has a very distinctive muscle car idle note that emits a true touring performance sound on the highway and will garner an additional 11 rear wheel horsepower on your C6. Options for the Route 66 include an x-pipe (FCOR-0430) or the center muffler (FCOR-0440). It is recommended that customers with a C6 automatic or paddle shift transmission use the Route 66 Evolution system, which is a combination of the Route 66 rear section and the FCOR-0440 center muffler. If you want to tone your Bullet down just a little bit, a great options is the PRT x-pipe section with resonators. This will help to smooth out the exhaust pulses and take the edge off the Bullet while maintaining that aggressive tone.
