The best way to kill the mod bug is to keep feeding it. So you are doing the right thing in my book!!

Just fyi, treatment of the mod bug is a long and expensive process... not to be engaged in by the light hearted. But while its bite makes one salivate and feely spend cash, the outcome when it is back under controll makes you/your car stronger....
