Regretted Mods

I have a stainless driveshaft. Didn't buy it, came with the car. Doubt highly it makes any sort of difference.
 
I purchased a LED upgrade for the tail lights before it had been tested and proven to work, it was more frustrating than anything. I still havent fixed it either....one of these days.:beer:
 
PI 3500 stall converter, though it did knock half a second off my 1/4 time it just was too much of a stall for an under powered stock engine. A 3000 would of been my ideal choice but couldn't pass up the low price and free shipping DR offered me on the converter.
 
Hey Marty, these guys haven't even begun modding. Thats what they should regret. We can't make money if they don't get enthused and really start modding.
 
not having air bung's installed on custom piping b4 vortec, after vortec ( b4 intercooler), & after intercooler to separately monitor temps in all these locations...
 
Gettin my windows tinted the legal limit, these cars look so much better with dark tint... getting the windshield tinted helped... but u can still see straight through it.
Soon i will go with 20%... i'll just have to pay the tickets.... gotta pay the cost to be the boss.
 
Boss50 stroker; should have done an aluminator and vortec; for the amount of coin. I'll never be able to reach her full potential in Cali. Would love to do a Whipple 2.9 but sigh....not so in Cali. Well I'll just settle for an s-trim one day hah when dollars allow.

hehe ya but your 10 second streetable MM is awesome. ;)

I had a P71, Modded that up then realized I should have had a Marauder.
I think I spend on mods almost as much as I did on the MM itself. :D

I wish I wouldn't have gotten the PI triple disc unit! ^^^ I got a 2800-2900 stall unit but the lockup is harsher than I'd like it to be. I should have gotten a Circle D single disc billet unit. Everything else mod wise I took my time and did it right and was happy with the choice.

The Shermanator speaks! Hey there how's your MM? Been to the drags? I ran a 13.8 with 3.73's n/a last weekend. My next mod will be a new engine.

+1 My regret too. I do have 20% on the rear window but wussed out on the others so my plan is 20% all around (except the windshield).

That was an extremely short regret on my first marauder. I went to a tint shop that had 4 levels: 50%, 35%, 20%, 6% (limo tint). I went to 35 all the way around but wasn't dark enough for my preference so I took back 2 weeks later and said put 20% on.

He said well we can do two things. Take 35 off completely and then reapply 20. That way you know it's 20 but it's twice a long job

Or

We can add another layer of 35 on top. It will get you down into the 20s dark where you like it but we just won't know what tint percentage you actually have. Could be higher, could be lower. Half the time. I said option B.

I was riding around with 11% :D:thumbup:

I'll second this one. I have had stall converters on other cars, so I knew better than to put one in this car. They are annoying for the modest improvement provided. Better to sink the money into improving the engine if you want to go faster.
