Default Summer Is Coming, Time To Build!!

I got back from deployment last year and like every other sailor, I went out and bought a car. An`02 Arctic White Camaro SS SLP edition. Been patiently waiting for this winter/cold weather to pass so that I could finally start my build and get off this addictive path we all know as "appearance mods". I've dropped some cash here lately (with MAJOR savings and a few hell of a savings) on some bolt-ons. Some performance/appearance mods.

Let me know what you think I need or have left out in sequence of order in this summers build. Thank you!

-MOOG parts install (upper strut mounts, bushings, the whole 9)
-Koni shocks/BMR springs install (To give me an idea on my clearance before header/exhaust install)
-Poly Motor mount install
-QTP Lt's 1 3/4 install
-AIR! delete
-ORY pipe/ QTP Electirc cutout install
-FTP 92mm lid/ported TB/MAF
-Tune/code delete

That's for sure a good start. I'm excited myself, I'm finally getting LTs, ORY and tune installed in two weeks.

I've done quite a bit of research on here lately in the past few months. I'm excited about knocking these "external" mods out and moving to internals. Been 5 years in the making and 3 Camaros later that I've finally got the time and money to do it!
