extended warranty update I've still been looking. Got a quote from Joe Yates 877-466-9166 for 5 year 60k miles for my 2006 XLR (currentlyl has 8,500 miles on it) for $2,600.00 even. Backed by Fidelity and it's called Platium Coverage. I have yet to see a copy of the policy but (they talk real...

Air Mike wind restrictor question When does yours light up? All the time? For brake lights? I'm getting ready to order one of those critters and I'm curious how the lighting works/looks. Thanks

XM pricing You guys have some insight on these prices, Give up some more info to a newbie. How did you get these deals? Just chatting with them over the phone or what. Good work by the way, I like to do a little dealing.

Mileage updates from modifications It's UP. Combinded city and highway was 21.5 MPG (miles driven divided by gallons used). That is 10% highway and the rest city stop and go. I was running around 16.5 to 17 MPG before I made the mods. I'm interested to see what straight highway mileage will...

gas mileage It's up for sure. I'll put in more detail shortly, but at least 1-2 MPG. Sure sounds kick ass when you punch it!!!

does it work? I've just started checking on these things, on star is crazy prices and you have to buy minutes from them. Fill a newbi in on this. Is it plug and play? Has anyone tried it? Does it work and if so, how well? Any and all input would be appreciated. Be sure to check out actual...

picture I just shot some on non V car. will try to post if i can figure it out

Volant info Amazon.com: Volant 25846150 Cool Air Intake Kit: Automotive Here is a link to amazon sight priced at $291.58. I bought mine on ebay from I'll bet the same seller, he has a pricing error in his e-bay listing now for like 4.9k (got to be a screw up). MVP was seller name and I got a...

more info on upgrade No tuning was done to the car at all, just parts swap. I see all those adds with huge HP gains on air filters and exhaust systems and I feel they are greatly overstated. The numbers that came of the dyno seems to be in line and are reasonable to me. If you can bring...

good info, anyone else have info on any of this I won't check my spelling or grammar:) That is exactly what I'm worried about with this aftermarket warranty stuff. It might be worth $750 a year for complete coverage (flip of the coin), but more than that I've got to think your better off...

costs FYI, I got the Corsa on Amazon (true believe it or not) for $1,469.00 delivered (no tax) and the Volant was like $300.00 on e-bay. Hard to find a great price on the Corsa stuff, but I've got to say, it is high quality stuff and I'm picky. NO DRONE guarantee from Corsa, which I think is a...

Dyno results corsa exhaust and volant cold air intake These were just done 3/13/12. All rating are rear wheel HP Base (nothing added) HP=254.39 torque 257.41 Volant only (no exhaust) HP=271.26 torque 276.69 exhaust and Volant HP = 280.92 torque 279.17 Real numbers from a Dynojet Winpep 7 I...

good to know My birthday is coming up and I put those on my list for Momma to get me. Got some in my Mustang and they are really nice, tried to find the super plush Loyd Matts, but they only have the XLR V logo and I don't (darn it) have a V car.

Just added Corsa exhaust (sweet sound, not too loud, very calm until you punch it) and Volant cold air intake. Base line on Car was rear wheel HP = 254.39 torque 257.41 Volant cold air increase to HP = 271.26 torque 276.69 Added Corsa (with Volant cold air of course it was on) HP = 280.92...

that is a deal I've been gettting between 4,500 to 5,500 for 4 years depending on the company. Heck for that, I'll take my chances. I'll have to check into that credit union thing, I don't belong to one of them as yet and that might be a good idea. Thanks for your info

Great inof from Jack Jack: Mine is #221. Build date 08/24/2005. I like your HP gains from your mods. On the Corsa, I've gotten feedback that it's a touch loud and would really appreciate your feedback on that: Cruising on highway with top down Around town idle and of course When you punch...

Stupid newbie question from KC What are the dates this event takes place. We are sort of slow here in Kansas and takes a while for things to sink in. Sounds like fun

Corsa system with top down Even with the top down it's not too much? I haven't had a convertible for a long time (last one was a 1957 chevy that I drove to high school), had straight pipes on it which I loved as a kid, but would not want now. Thanks for the info, it is appreciated.

New XLR Kansas City The low mileage 2006 (8K miles) is the star black limited with the only color (shale) available. Question for Gray toad on the Corsa. I want a mellow no drone tone on the exhaust, not super loud. Does that fit the bill or do you have any regrets putting it on? My plans...
