I already checked on the internet... Not a single place will trade a supercharger for a kidney... What kind of s&*^ is that?

Well, at least that's what I'll try this time!
Ive tried to explain to the girlfriend that Im just modding the Vette to keep the terrorists from winning.

Well, to be honest, Im a girl. I don't have the genetic make up to become a modaholic.

But I do wish I had the time to install the 3.42's, Yank SS3200 TC, and Transgo Kit I bought this past month. And to be honest, the new hood graphics the hubby installed for me this week are looking pretty cool. Yeah, I know the UPS guy by his first, middle, and last name, but that's better than knowing the milkman's name. Right?

I haven't done any modding in a while and I am about to go .
Maybe I should reward myself with a supercharger and a new hood

My name is Dave. Recently again, I heard the age old comment made by many of our wifes " What's wrong with the wheels on the car? they look just fine" Does anyone know why women seem to love the stock wheels?

Stuart. You're right. OK. The rear brake ducts were installed today so I'll try going "cold turkey". I'm gonna hide my catalogs and remove all the aftermarket vendor websites from my "favorites" list on my browser and take their numbers off my speed dial.

Do hats and shirts count during withdrawal?????

Cajun,
I can tell from your tone of voice / writing that you need intensive therapy. Why don't you drive on up and we'll do a US tour of all Vette suppliers and you will be able to walk in and leave without buying anything!

"Ah, good afternoon, Mr. Cajun! We haven't seen you for 2 days!"

"Er, no, man. You must have me confused with someone else. I ain't ever seen this place before!"

"Oh, that's right, you weren't here - you placed your last order ON-LINE!"

Well, maybe that therapy plan isn't the best either.

Hmmmmmmm. The drive sounds cool though. And maybe I could just "get some ideas" for when I'm out of rehab.

Hello everyone! I'm Mike and as you can see I'm a rookie Modaholic. I've only put a Corsa Exhaust and Loyd's floor and cargo mats in my baby, oh and the skip shift resistor. I just bought the blue aluminum bezels for the gauges a few weeks ago but I haven't had the chance to install them. That part is really bugging me too but thankfully I finally have nothing planned for this weekend so I'll be in the Mod mode on Saturday. It is comforting to know that I was able to control myself with those bezels sitting on my desk for a few weeks. I haven't lost too much sleep and I know I can quit anytime. Now where did I put those catalogs for the long tube headers and x-pipe......

Hey guys! My name is Vic.......... and I'm a Mod-aholic! Quite frankly I have a better chance of reading and seeing everything on the internet than stopping my Mod fever!! I too find myself salivating every time I see a UPS Truck in my neighborhood. I mean..... If I come home from work and there's no Vette goodies at my door....... I fall into a deep depression. Let's not even talk about when the the package arrives and its the wrong order

And every time I tell my wife that I've ordered my last Mod..... the C5 aftermarket mafia "PULLS ME RIGHT BACK IN" !!!!

I'm so sick.... if I ever reach the end of Modding my 02 C5, I'll have to sell it and start all over again!! HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
