all mods listed

Im a M6

Best mod ( feeling pwer) was LT and ORY at once...

In order of mod/did I feel a difference:

-descreened MAF/no

-!cags/yes

-K&N/no

-lid, bellows/hardly

-SLP LM/hardly(sound difference)

-LT and ORY/yes and sound difference like hell

-spohn LCA/a bit

-aluminum fw and ls7 clutch/yes revs faster and felt a bit quicker

-springs/koni/35mm sway front and 21mm rear/hotchkiss phb/apc sport seat/simpson 5pt harness/ hawk brake pads/ 25% underdrive pulley //// handling difference, ride height, but no power difference..

-Rebuilt T-56/ yes I can shift again!

-Moser 12 bolt(3.73s truetrac)/yes car felt slower/heavier/suspension is off/ gears end sooner/ only good thing IMO was my 4th gear on highway.

-UMI Torque arm and driveshaft loop and 3pt SFC/ car still felt like crap since suspension was off and I had M/T et streets(rear) at the time and cheap sumitomos in front.

after Nittos(rear), car felt a bit stiffer, but still feels off. oh and I think I have a broken shock, maybe my pinion angle isnt correct and LCA geometry, to say the least these are all possibel candidates that the car feels like crap compared to before.

-Ported Throttlebody/not really, just some more lowend pull

-Bogarts and slicks/yes
