So what is considered a light moded car?

Just curious when does a car go from being lightly moded to just moded?

Catback, CAI, lightly modded....

When you get into headers, cam, etc....modded.

When I had a catback and CAI people called my car stock. Now I am not quite stock

All bolt-ons but headers and TC...I would say.

If you are talking to a cobra owner lightly moded is anything under 415CI

If it is a ricer, stock with out takeing spark plug wires off

There was an article in GMHTP recently that said "Stone Stock LT1 goes 12.26" then you read the article and his engine was INTERNALLY stock but the rest of the car was heavily modded.
It is subjective but my opinion of a lightly modded car is CAI, catback, and maybe ignition or computer work.
I have an internally stock engine but I would call my car heavily modified, once the 355 forged bottom end cam and head package goes in I will call it extremely modified.
