It has begun...
Well just got the Z one week ago and I am already buying stuff for it, when I got it all it had was a MGW shift ****, rocker savers, and Bilstein shocks. In the last week I have already made a little mod list and the stuff is on the way...
-K&N FIPK w/ hood seal
-B&M shifter
-HID conversion headlights
-Partition
and my shop is checking the price of long tubes with hi-flow cats and X-pipe. If the price is reasonable I will be getting them aswell. Then after the FIPK and headers are on I will be getting a dyno tune for it. I also lowered it on stock bolts and it looks so much better. This car is just such a better car than my Mustang ever was. I love this car.

Welcome to the Zoo mang. I got mine March 5th (my second C5 though) And threw on a B&M within 4 days...much more to come very soon.
You won't be disappointed with the B&M...well worth the money.
Are you planning to get some stock dyno runs for base numbers?
I hear you about the stang. My buddy has a blower on a build motor in his stang...I stayed perfectly even with him from 40 - 120mph in my stock Z. He was speachless.
