What's your favorite mod that you've done to your car?

I'd have to say mine was the 11 psi pulley and upgraded valvetrain on my Vortech supercharged S2000, really woke it up by bitch-slapping the ring and pinion out the back of the car

For my E36 BMW Ford V8 swap car, I want to get a nice air spence, do they still have them somewhere at Yolo mall in Richmond?

It's a three-way tie for me:

BCAA
Full ICBC insurance coverage
Craigslist to sell it







For an actual answer, twin-turboing my old S12.

Sway bars.

$60 to replace the rear bar in my TSX with a TL Type S bar.
$200 to replace the front and rears in my Miata with RX-8 bars.

Cheap and easy handling upgrade for daily drivers.

Coilovers, on every car so far. I hate the look of stock height. Also a proper HID retrofit on my M3.
