Default Mod bug has got me again!!

After selling my ws6 i told myself I wasnt going to mod my new car. ****, i wasnt even going to get another ls1 but now I have one and its like a disease. Car already has a pulley, lid, and cutout..... But im adding a ported tb and ls6 intake next week. I told myself it was fast enough but the ls6 and tb seemed so tempting and easy. Prolly be looking for headers next. GOD, I love the ls1.

amazingly, I've owned the orange SS for about a month now and haven't even touched anything under the hood yet.

But, it seems to run well, I went 12.84 @ 104 last week at HRP with only a lid that came on the car. Backed it up with a 12.9

Yes, stock LS1s can run 12s.....if you can drive
