Rob, my ex girlfriend had absolutely no part in any decision I made to purchase a vehicle. I sold my Mustang to pay for a nicer ring for her, we broke up, now that money is free for other things. You read into it wrong bud.
I mean really, I wouldn't let a girl dictate what I am buying with my money...whether she has a ring on her finger or not
Anyway, since the Vette scenario is making less sense due to the low trade in offers for my car, I sent a pricing request out for a phenolic intake spacer (apparently makes a huge difference on these cars), ported throttle body, also considering some reummz and a Magnaflow exhaust. Everything can be pulled off and sold pretty easily (other than the TB because i have to send back the core) whenever I decide to sell this car. Should make it a bit more enjoyable and fix the sponginess of the throttle and lack of low-range grunt.
