Pro tip for others going about this. Taking the cowl and firewall brace off when doing this creates a TON more room for activities.

The OEM manifold has 2 pins to push and secure the cover. Once gone You can just use the two that are left, but the cover is kinda out of place and floating; and also for looks… I guess.I thought you didn't have to cut the engine cover with the Wagner?
You don't. Just need to modify some of the foam under it.I thought you didn't have to cut the engine cover with the Wagner?

Don't forget to get yourself some golf shorts, white New Balance, and a Vette polo. I think you have to own those in order to even purchase a Corvette.That Vette looks Sick! Gets ya thinking, prices on used ones have really come down![]()
For every one mkv supra, there are roughly eight c8 corvettes in the US. So yeah supply is high relatively speakingThat Vette looks Sick! Gets ya thinking, prices on used ones have really come down![]()
I had a C8 try to race me once. He lined up with me, I rolled down my passenger window. It turned out he was just asking if I knew how to get to Costo. He wanted to buy some fresh white New Balances and some diapers for his dinner date at 3pm at the Golden Corral.If I was someone who collects cars maybe I'd get a C8, but they don't really excited me. I don't get that "oh shit look!" feeling. I still get that feeling when I see another Supra, which is not very often in my area. I get that feeling seeing a 98 WS6 TransAm (if it's in good shape) or a RX7, but a C8? meh.
Raced one once. It was dead even. I didn't think he was serious, so he did get the jump. I pulled in to match front bumpers, but after that the rest was even. That was when I was rocking the JB4, not sure how it would be now that I'm on MHD. That was exciting though. About the only time seeing a C8 excited me.
