Default What do you want for your car that doesn't exist?

Im in an engineering program at my high school and the goal for this class now is to design, build, test, patent, and market our own invention. i was looking for some opinon on what you wanted for your f body. about any model 4th gen can be used, i have a 98 v6, a 96 LT1 TA and a 2000 z to test on so anything in that range would work. any logical ideas would be appreciated. about anything can work, the only restrictions are that it must be a physical device, like for example, i could make some form of headers, but not an alternate fuel. What do you guys think?
Thanks for any help

Convert the lt1 into an E85 vehicle and put a blower on it and run high boost! All you have to do is get high flow injectors and fuel pump and tune it to make it an E85 vehicle.

that wouldnt work, it has to be pretty much completely created by me. sounds like fun but i couldnt really patent something like that unless i made a swap kit and tried to sell it.

+2 for the targa top... seems like a fine idea for an engineering project. I suppose the hardest part would be finding a donor Vette? Hell, you patent that sunbitch and I'm gonna buy one from ya
