I've changed four things you've mentioned:
Air box
Gears
Wheels
Exhaust

Plus some things you didn't mention (below). I would include on your list:
Shifter
Flywheel
Power Key
Skip Shift feature

The last two are genuine "Deletes".

Those are some good additions to the list. There's many many many more that could be added. My thoughts now are to create a new series of polls, each pointing to the others.
1. Deleted Systems
2. Modified Systems
3. Added Systems
4. Fixed Systems

That should cover all scenarios. Then it's a matter of getting a complete list that would be shared for 1,2 and 4.
List 3 would have to be kinda open ended with a the poll being very generalized. (Engine, Body, Drive Train. Suspension, etc)
Living within the confines of the forum poll feature limits is the real challenge.

Like unpluging the tire pressure light?

I know another Turq soon to be deleted.

I really like the color on your car. Kinda Cyber Grey-esque. I'm contemplating a carbon fiber hood and something darker would work well with it.

If anyone should hear your Turq run, Brett, I doubt anyone would think you wear lace on your underwear!! LOL!

Paul, are you still a believer in 4:10's???? You really seemed to like the little ride we took.

I love the 4.10s in my vette

The list grows, seems like every year or so, something else changes..

So far:

iew Poll Results: Choose as many as applies. (Deleted or not OEM)

Micro mess windshield: replaced for std WS (and I LOVE IT!)
Exhaust: SW headers and X-pipe, 3" stainless piping, Magnaflow mufflers
Wheels: Aftermarket chrome A-molds
Secondary vacuum actuators: Gone (ALL of it! - never want to revert it)
Seats: replaced with std 95 (black) seats
Air Filter Box and/or Filter : K&N kit w/ internal sleeve
Brakes: Hawk HPS pads
Engine Top End: ported and cams phased by Pete
Head Lights: LEDs (Genssi/CREE H6054 projector)
Tail Lights: LEDs
Body Parts: hood from a 93(?), front bumper from an 89

So far, my goal is mostly skewed toward stock appearance - I like the "sleeper" aspect. The ZR-1 fender badges I added gets in the way of that, but I seldom (i.e., NEVER) street race anymore and I do so like those ZR-1 badges!

The exception to mods is performance (mostly engine) mods AND lighting due to inadequate OE night lighting. (Old eyes, I guess.)

Oh, I'm 6' and 240# and my wife is 6' 1". According to a conversation I had with Dave Mclellan, the model for the C4 cabin was 5'-10" and 185#. Anyway, the fact is the 90 ZR-1 sport seats pressed in above our outboard thighs, just above the knee so that riding more than 2 hours was uncomfortable to down right painful after 4 hours!

My wife's hips too were not a good fit in those seats either (women's hips are wider than us guys of equal height especially). I loved the std seats in my 95 Vette, so I swapped out the sport seats when the 95s became available. Now BOTH of us are comfy now on long trips! (We also did the same swap in her 91 ZR-1.)

My favorite mods (in order) are:

Changes to the engine porting and exhaust system
The std seats (getting rid of the stock sport seats!)
Deleting the secondaries
Chrome A-molds
Installing a standard windshield
Black (Lloyd) mats

Future possibilities ($$ permitting)

Pete's cams and/or possible 391 upgrade
Upgrade the wheels/tires/brakes
410s
...

"It never ends!"
