$5,000.00, spend it!
I thought I would post for fun, so play if you want. I got $5,000, what should I buy(mods) for the Angry B!tch(my car, not her)? It is my DD, the roads suck here(MKE,WI), so those have to be considered. I would like it a little faster/quicker. I like how the handling is now, just want it more consistent? I am a top speed, freeway racer type. On-ramps/off-ramps are taken as fast as I can. I love to drive around people especially SRT8's! Not so much the drag race type. I don't want a winter beater because I would rather spend the money on my 1le instead. I am asking the 1le crowd because we are weird and a little different than the rest of the "Camaro Owners". We understand each other. Good jokes are welcomed, just be nice. Oh yeah, I might track it once at Road America in 2016, but that will be it for track days, again it is a DD. Thanks in advance.
My current mods are: Airaid CAI PTB JRE tune VTC Limo tint Black lugs ZL1 spoiler ZL1 belly pan Catch can Raptor Shift Light- Not installed yet, leery about tapping into the harness. What I am thinking: Headers and cats Springs- I love how it is now, just want lower/better. Cam- Scared because it is my DD 2014 HUD? Want it for the shift light, any good? Will it work? |

Let me have the money and I'll do the mods to see if you like them? LOL.
Really though. The shift light in the 2014 is ok but it doesn't catch your eye like an aftermarket light would. I'll do a gopro video of mine to show you what I'm talking about. Concerning springs I'm on the fence as well. I've lowered every car I've owned but for some reason I have no such desire to do so with this car. For one the handling is already amazing and two, it's kind of nice be able to drive wherever you want and not have not worry about scraping. With that said I'll still probably do it some time in the future because not a fan of excessive wheel gap. |

Headers, springs, cam, and top it off with some nitrous.

1leWorksforme, that would be great! I think other 13' crowd would appreciate it too. I was even thinking about a Dash logic set up. Same page, I HATE the wheel gap, just want a little more stiffness(20%), and that's what she said too! : )

Joseph, how is the 4th gear pull with the juice? This woman at my work keeps telling me to put the "nitro juice" in, too funny.

Yeah, she's pissed because she can't drive my car and that it doesn't have dual climate control. I hear about that all the freaking time! My G8 GT had dual climate and she could drive that anytime she wanted. I tried to teach her a few times to drive the Angry B!tch(she named it), she just don't get it. She has stalled it hard way too many times and the rear end/driveline clunks enough already from the factory I don't want any more play in it. So the Camaro is a sore spot with her.

If I had that much at one shot, i'd be hard pressed to not purchase a supercharger...
Even if it had to wait to be installed... |
