When I had my Corvette, GM, or the dealer, must have sold my name to the after market parts people, because before I had 500 miles on it, I received all kinds of catalogs. I could buy mufflers that would add 50 hp, a new computer chip to add 35 hp, airfoil for the air box adding 12 hp, a polished plenum and on and on. Just for fun, I added up all available options and found that if they were all installed, I would have a car with well over 700 hp! Add a bigger spoiler and look out Indy cars! Yeah, right! Clearly, the parts people never heard of, or ignored, the Law of Diminishing Returns.
