I'm just adding up the figures this morning and WOW! Over the years it adds up, still working on my list.

How much have you spent on your Vette mods?

I would guess that my spenditure on my Vette would be around the 5to 8k range. Not too bad, however I bought quite a few of my items used to save some money!:cheers:

HA ha HA you will never see me post the money I spend on my vette as fear that it will get back to my wife and she will want equal money in shoes :thud:

Honestly though I stop keeping a list because it got too big. Road Racing costs a ton of money and figure H/C, suspension, brakes, safety equipment and now the LS7 install it adds up to alot of money. And then add 15 track days, standard track wear items,hotels, food, trailer, towing vehicle and it adds up to even more money :(

On a good note I love every second in my vette

Don't you agree that the supercharger is the way to go from the start? I have spent a lot on removing and replacing performance parts before going with the supercharger.
I advise others to cut through the chase and go with a SC, blower cam, heads and headers. Add a methanol system for safety..:thumbsup:

:iagree: However I would go TT as it's almost "free" :lol: HP. No belt issues either. I would put on an electric water pump for a DD car if you have a SC application. If you throw a belt the EWP will still run. ;)

Not a whole lot compared to others, but it is really worth it to me because it is something that I am very passionate about!
