So, here I was all happily driving my ST with only SVT springs and an AEM CAI for upgrades. But after reinstalling my stock intake for the winter and feeling what a difference that one little part made, the mod-bug is biting awfully hard again... Now I've been perusing the boards, thinking about exhaust, better suspension set-ups, and I just ordered the set of mild-ish Cossie cams that FocusSport had for sale.

Whenever I come on here and read the threads, my motivation to modify goes off the charts. What, do you all think my money grows on trees?? Give me a break already!! [wrenchin]

Oh and of course I've got big plans for some custom dyno tuning with my local speed shop once I get the I/E/C all installed. Arrgg!

The usual fix is to buy the SPI and then you won't have the option to mod! LOL... JUST PLAYING, Pirates!

Yeah... I feel the addiction at times.

even when my budget goes tits-up, I still find cheap mods to do...clear corners, tinting tails and grill lights, push button start, adding cathodes. it never EVER ends.

Gee, they say the first step to recovery is to admit you have a problem. You guys readily admit you have a problem, you not only not recover, you pass the problem on to everyone else... and yeah, you're doing it to me too! <g>

Hey don't feel bad. If you have a choice between affording a mod or eating, the right thing to do is spend the money on the car. Besides, the weight loss only makes you faster.

Modding is like Heroin.. you do it once, you're hooked and the relaps is horrible and the urges are stronger then anything out there

I just lost the bug! The cure? $1200 of parts in a month, $800 of parts in one of those weeks. Crap... When I relapse im gonna like, go turbo or somethin... Or get 2 grand in wheels/tires and suspension all at once... Eh, I'm one of the lucky ones. [shhh] The bug only comes around when the green is there to kick it. [neener]

They're $140 ea, marked down from $200 ea. I asked Randy how long they'd be discounted and he wasn't sure. Could be until next week or next month, he said. Clicky -> http://www.focussport.com/cams.htm

And I go to Detroit Speed Shops - store in Livonia, dyno in Dearborn Heights.
