[QUOTE="GT Premi, post: 15482240, member: 121775"] The list is so long, I'd probably forget a lot of it. The only power mod I've done is the 2.9 Whipple. Everything else has been toward handling and [I]preserving[/I] power production. The wheel/tire combo on my GT500 is actually [I]lighter[/I] than on the GT350R. I haven't weighed it, but I think the overall curb weight is now somewhere in the high 3500 to low 3600 pound range.
