Bone stock?

Say "when"...
With all the talk of modifications on this website, I'm curious as to how many of you out there are bone stock. [Cosmetic mods such as tint do not count as mods in this thread.] I'm referring to owners who have done nothing to enhance performance above factory levels and are happy being stock.

Is this you? Are you out there lurking? Let your voice be heard!:cool:
 
Does installing a JLT CAI disqualify? Other than that and cosmetics, mines totally stock and still under 5000 miles. I've owned it for about 1 yr and it's my primary car.

Thats impossible, or you must not go anywhere at all
 
You've seen my totally stock, zero modifications silver 04 at the Tower Shops meeting a number of times Tallboy. Only thing done has been oil changes and side-side tire rotations (did add a full size spare compliments of Marc "shakes" -MM wheel and Rob "ghost03" -BFG tire). Watching the performance improvments with all you guys S/C'ing though (you, Zo, Tim, carfixer, Joe with the Vortech setup etc)....I'm starting to weaken. I just noticed Rick (ricknmiami) has a Trilogy setup on order.

I'm currently bone stock. No performance mods yet. But come 5pm tonight when my Xcalibrator comes in, I will no longer be bone stock. I am not happy being stock. Never have been. :D
 
Aside from a K&N airfilter and a God's head steering wheel badge, stock.
Oh yeah, I've got a trailer hitch too.
I've got 4:10s, plugs, thermostat, and a chip that I will probably NEVER get to install. :mad:

Technically, at this very second, my car is bone stock. However, when Trilogy #79 shows up in a couple weeks and I go visit Carfixer, I will no longer be able to make this claim. :)
 
Mine is bone stock. I've got an all-around tint and SS inserts but no technical mods whatsoever.
 
With the exception of the Gods Head sticker I put in the middle of the steering wheel, 03 300B Black, Bone Stock. Didn't even drill the front bumper for the plate as required by law, haven't been stopped yet. Very Bone Stock, very happy with it. 26000 miles, still on the original front tires too, had to change out backs due to a flat.
 
Ours is bone stock. But hey it's my wife's car. Plenty fast for her as is. Makes a great baby hauler for us. Just say no to minivans...
 
Bone stock

I've added a Shiney Hiney, and "fixed" the front & rear hockey sticks, as well as the one on the stearing wheel. It's a silver '04. Best Et's a 15.36 @ 92.1mph :)
 
Still stock, pretty happy with it for now. Replacing all four tires as soon as they arrive from Tire Rack. Now that the wife has seen the spoilers and the trunk organizer, those might be purchased a ways down the road. Honestly, it'll be all I can manage to keep it in gas, oil changes, tires, etc. done properly. However, if I should come into a large sum of money suddenly, all bets are off. I'll be heading up to get me the whole works done to the car. I have been lusting after superchargers ever since I found mm.net and discovered that there are some speed shops specifically modifying Marauders. It'll happen someday.

04 silver with 24K miles. 2nd set of rear tires. Daily driver.

Air cleaner replaced with direct replacement K&N for cost savings, no real performance improvement just a cost savings on air filters as I live on a dirt road.

Satisfied with performance? Well, I really do like how she runs when its cold outside before that car fully warms up. wished it could run like that all the time.

Normally though, no real tire burner on the launch, but she's putting a hurting on the tires in scond gear. I also find her fun to stomp on from 65 MPH, on the e-way. Car handles and brakes very well for stock.

Overall car is good as it is. But with that said, I feel that it is an outstanding canidate for mods.

Been debating the supercharcer kits as well as settling for 410 gears and a tune. Leaning more toward the second (really wanna 'charger) as this is still getting quite a few miles put on daily and I also have other intrests and prioritys to balance. (In addition I would like to keep my drivers license.)

My 2004 is bone stock except for wheel locks and a full size spare on a polished wheel. Very satisfied. Oh yes, also have winter CVPI wheels and tires.

Bone Stock Blue MM here. Only cosmetic mod is the SS Inserts on the rear fascia. I am barely able to stay out of trouble without any "extra" horsepower. :D
