It's a tie between...

1. my wheels...

or

2. my engine mods (package)...

I mean wheels can change the look of the car completely. On the other hand, engine mods can make you feel like you have a new car.

I still get giddy everytime I turn the key...

Favorite mods...I think more about what's next then my favorite ones. I have one new mod going on and I’m pretty sure it’s going to pretty high on the favorites list, at least I’m hoping. I’m sure Vadim will have a new thread soon on this up and coming mod. Please stay tuned….

Good Thread!

Secret mods are the best. The ones that only you know about and could possibly be one you have just discovered, but you just go on without spreading the word and you kill, kill, kill. All the while in a car that could almost never go that fast.

I ounce put a refrigerator in front of my intake of a 02 Sebring to cool the air and almost blew the engine in half and killed the alternator running it.
But it was fast *** "used food" when it was working.

Bang for the Buck

Pulley and ECU is probably the best 'bang for the buck' performance mod. It is clearly the foundation for any more extreme mods, but it really makes a significant difference as a stand alone mod.

As far as looks, lowering by whatever means you prefer (star diagnostics, lowering module, etc.) probably makes the biggest visual impact. George Barris once said 'if you can get the stance right, everything else falls into place' and I wholeheartedly believe in that philosophy.

Exhaust cut outs. One second you're unsuspecting old man Mercedes and the next you're loud obnoxious speed demon.
