mods - best money spent

I like the short throw shifter and the flat bottom steering wheel. The really loud horn is pretty cool also. I do really like my floor mats. The extended range hood opening is almost a must have.

Pick your poison... I will have you changing everything - it is just slightly more expensive the gambling, booze, and women

That is a tough question... what would be right for you?

Ask a dozen people, get a dozen answers.

Best bang for the buck?

Evaluate your driving style and put your dollars to tick those boxes.

I am a leisure rider. I ride for the enjoyment. To clear my head. To get away from the drudgery. When I head out, it may be for thirty minutes or you may not see me until tomorrow. I have many mods but the comforts tick my boxes.

If you are an aggressive rider... harnesses, short shifter, turbo or super charger, sway bar, shocks, tires, and spoiler might be your ticks.

Relaxed rider... stereo, top, seats, windshield might be all you need.

Think you get the idea. Check out other Slings if you can for the things that tick your style.

Tick your boxes first for the best bang for your dollar.

I see you have 2016 SL also. For me, best "bang for the buck" was, in order:

• Taller Madstad Windshield. I went with the +11 but almost wished I did the +13 - $500
• New Pioneer 5.25" speakers to replace the stock ones - $50
• New Pioneer Stereo to replace the Infotainment unit. With Wiring, Mounting Kit, new camera and everything, it was $300 (did the labor myself).

I use mine as a daily driver to work and back so the performance mods, while I would like to have, just don't justify the cost for me. Maybe if I win the lotto, I'ld get a supercharger, header, exhaust, shocks, etc. But they are on the back burner for now.

I just spent some money on decals/graphics (~$200), but everyone will have to wait to see those.

Don’t be foolish and think people see you easily. 46 years of riding has proved that to me many times.

The biggest distraction isn’t too many lights. It’s idiots on cell phones looking down texting. About half that pass me the going the other way. The lights might make them look up in time to avoid you.

My mods in order of preferance:

Air horns - for safety
Coilovers for comfort and ride control
New exhaust for heat control and butt HP
Madstad windshield for comfort
CAI for looks and butt HP
Velocity Street seats to stop banging the headrest

i don’t see how “swaybar” is one of the mods that will give you the best bang for the buck..

If you’re driving your SS daily, then you should know what you needed the most..

I would say that about 11-15 people upgraded while at SSITR. With the show discount it was under $200. Every single person noticed the difference. From daily driving to hitting the twisties. The stock sway bar is hollow. The Twist Dynamics is completely solid. Just taking normal sweeping turns while going to work this morning, you can tell that it just turns in more flat and makes it easier to drive.

Definitely luggage racks and rear protection plate. Don't know how you live without them!

1 Sway Bar
2 Shocks
3 Short Shifter

Sway bar and shocks have been on my list from day one.

Inexpensive amazingly good and once I installed them the thought of a rearview mirror evaporated.

Best bang for the buck????????????????????????

It has to be the "whistle stops" that I installed to stop the whistling caused by the high pressure air coming off the top outside corners of my nascar windscreen hitting the V notch in the bottom of the slingshade top. They were free and brought the pleasure of the ride back.

Most enjoyable mod is the supercharger without a doubt. I personally wouldn't have much interest in owning a SS without a serious hp mod of some type whether it be forced induction or a bigger engine. I have to have a lil go power or I'm bored.

Those are my feelings exactly @Ghost. I liked the sling before I got the supercharger but now it’s just amazing.

There was one young lady that spent $20,000 at SSITS.

Sweet jeebus...I don't feel bad about what I spent now. lol

For me it would be exhaust. I can appreciate those upgrading dampers, brakes, and sway bar. For me stock works well. I just enjoy driving in the open country roads. I love that I can look down and see the road....just crazy.
