Default What has been your favorite bolt-on??????

I guess I'll go first, . . . . so far i have a cut out, slp lid and a tna short stick, . . . and the cut out is my favorite bolt on, . . . . but that will soon be changed to a x-pipe and pacesetters and undecided mufflers

My favorites have been bolt-offs. I love removing **** that isn't needed.

Examples) Hidden wire mod, !EGR, !AIR, !washer fluid, !PCV, !flame blanked (hood insulation), and keeping the bitch clean.

My favorite bolt-on was probably the LT's and TSP duals with bullets. Favorite mod is 12-bolt w/ 4.11's, 315 drag radials, LCA's and LCA brackets. Most people on the road that have the power to beat me, can't hook up. The cars that hook up, don't have the power.

First it was the longtubes, then it was definitely with out a doubt the TNT 150 shot. Course the cam and tune was great too but its not a "bolt-on"

Right now it's my GMMG. Once I get my Kooks bolted on and hearing the harmony that the two make together, my fav will be "Full exhaust".

Not really a bolt-on but my favorite is the 4.10s. Best SOTP feel for the money I spent.

I technically bolted my cam in behind the retainer plate. Does that count for anything?

But seriously. My FAST intake.

Are you serious? You must have that and a de-screened MAF if it is pleasing to you.

GMMG or Pro 5.0 with LSS. Tough choice but if I had to pick one I'd go with the Pro 5.0.

Even in my LT1 (and later LS1) I had problems getting into third when shifting hard every once and a while. Have not had one problem since putting the Pro 5.0 in my 02 Z. Folks who have the stock of Hurst shifter need to drive a car with the Pro 5.0 once they do they will want one right away IMHO.
