Damn....the mod bug has struck

Anyone else here thought they were going to keep their car stock? After I got new seats I thought I was going to stop....until the mod bug struck again... within the past month I purchased new wheels, tires, front lip, tinted the car, overlays, sway bars, & springs.... who was I kidding? I had to hold myself back in getting headers... Anyone else in the same boat? Seems as if I do mods in spurts...

Didn't the tests show intake gains ceased after 3 days due to the computer adjusting to it and adding exhaust actually LOWERS peak HP? So I'm sure this wasn't too not starting air flow mods for the VQ.

Yep... I've been on a long mod journey over the past 14 months. I think I'll cool it for a while and enjoy what I've got. I know, I know, how long with that last?

Everything CompTech makes for the CLS 6MT (except the flywheel/clutch); hence the title "CompTech Inspired". Also got wheels, tires and BBK. I had to or am in the process of selling off my OEM parts to recoup some of the cost.
