depending on the year you can't run synthetic trans fluid or you'll be pulling the trans for a rebuild.

 

check under the battery to see if it has leaked, if it has it could trash the wiring and you will get into some money to fix.

'99 seems to be about the worst year for the battery issue.

 

also your stuck with paper blocker rings and have to use regular dex III transmission fluid.

 

also i think i have the skip shift delete for a C5 if its not already done for cheep.

also does a drop in k&n do just fine on these or does anyone have any reccomendations for a cai?

 

veraram B2 is the best ram air cai you can get.
