Default To Mod or Not To Mod

I’ve done mods and had a blast. What’s really interesting is while MANY people here mod, obviously, there are a number of members on the Forum (look in people's sig.) who have 2 Vettes: a C5 with heavy mods, and a C6 that’s bone stock. Maybe one of them would share the cure?

Default Just 1 more thing

I keep telling myself this and that I'll be happy when it comes back THIS time. Wrooooooooong and it's just 1 more thing. I started with just a procharger. Then it went to headers and exhaust. Then I added a 3200 stall speed and then don't forget the 3.42 gears to get that SOTP feeling. Then the rims and tires to handle the extra power. Oh yeah I forgot the rotors to stop this monster. I then ran a 11.40 and yes you guessed it a rollbar. I now have a rollbar so why not be in the 10's. I just bought a head and cam package. I will get the car back within 2 weeks and see what else I just might want to add on. Charlie C6
