The nitrogen only works properly if the valve stem caps are green, right?

Solar throttle controller.
A distant second is the chrome valve stem caps - my first mod. I wish I could have gotten chrome wheels to go with the chrome valve stem caps.

Hard choice, but I'd say the Soler throttle controller.

Without a doubt adding the three real carbon fiber overlays on the cheap looking brushed aluminum trim strips on the bottom of the dash. Black anodized would have looked OK but that silver, really! I hope the guy that came up with that got demoted to tire valve cap design.

The soler controller is quite nice. Put it to stock for the dealer today and it felt very sluggish. Now that I've experienced the difference, it definitely gets my endorsement.
