Default Full bolt on?

What is considered full bolt ons? gears, exhaust, tb and plenum, intake, missing anything else? Is suspension like LCA's and springs and such considered bolt on as well or not really?

well If I'm racing someone and they do have suspension, they usually say something like "a little suspension", or they include "full suspension" in the list of their mods

Superchargers and turbos use bolts to hold them on...

well in that case, I think the only thing I have that isn't a bolt on is a roll cage. That's pretty much the only thing that isn't fabricated

I would consider bolt on as anything you do not have to remove the valve covers to install.

i agree with oxford...anything where you don't touch the valve covers, but not suspension

Full exhaust(lts back)
air intake, tb, plenum
gears

those are just your standard mods lol everyone has em.
