Default CLB and Skip Ship Eliminator Installed!

I've had the 99 vert for two weeks and I finally installed the column lock bypass and skip shift eliminator.

Now, I need to wake the exhaust system up a bit. The stock mufflers are way too quiet.

Let the real mods begin!

I did the same to my FRC the other day. I've had it about a year now.

I used to be pretty slow at shifting, so the skip shift was never an issue. But as I got better, it became a huge pain in the ***! So I decided to get rid of it.

I also threw in an MGW shifter.... niiiice!

The CAGS eliminator and MGW shifter were the best mods that I have done to mine hands down.

Yeah I have to agree the shifter was a significant mod, except I went C6 Z06 shifter.
All are improvement over stock.

Good first couple of mods. You do know that once you start down the modding path, it only gets worse (money wise).
