I started with small bolt-ons,
then all bolt ons
then 1.8 rocker arms (didn't want a cam)
then a small cam,
then a huge cam,
then 4.11 gears/tranny
then some suspension stuff
then a show quality engine polish (sig pictures)
then twin turbos
then... you realize you've created a monster and it's unusable.
Then.... once you've been there, done that... you get another and start over.

Just ordered the fuel system to wrap up the nitrous...from there it will drive train stuff... it never ends. Even winning the lottery would not solve it, sure it would reduce vette tax symptoms, but the disease would still be there.

Better mod that thing quick then because if you are on the warpath with Hondas then plenty of the more serious ones will hand you your butt on a plate. 
Sean at OCC is very good people. He did the latest round of surgery on my car.

Very good starts! like everyone says though...once the bug bites, there's no cure! hopefully your mods list and your pocket book are good friends!
