    No.

    Unless you have the modifications itemized on your insurance and its approved they dont affect the value, so sell everything or take it back to stock before they come get the car.

      Well they had to come get the car yesterday so They could look at the car today. I have USAA, anyone have any experience with them dealing with a totaled car?

        Cable driven TB might be the source of the issue.

          Yes I had taken off the lid and maf to check it out and I could see that the TB was partially open.

            I think you can collect aftermarket parts off the car up until you sign over the car. Depending on your states laws, you may want to collect your license plates if you can use them on a new car.

                not the first time I have heard of throttle sticking on ls1's. I seen an 02 SS flipped over because of stuck throttle and guy hit a light pole.

                  i dont understand how this happens?

                  why doesnt the driver turn the key to off - NOT lock, and or put the car in neutral?

                  i would rather blow my engine up than wreck my car

                    Well I talked to the insurance today and they don't go by the book value. They base it off of other cars for sale around the area. They are giving me $10821.56 minus my deductable $9821.56. If I were to keep it they would give me $8200. I think I'm gonna fight it because they compared it to a Formula that is selling for $6k 300 miles away but didn't compare it to an 01 Firehawk locally selling for $17k and a 2000 WS6 selling for $18k.

                      that car in my aread would be worth 10k max. Sorry but the fact is that these cars don't have much value anymore.
