Default "Full bolt-ons"

What do most of you guys consider as full bolt-ons like the title says.

I think I read a threat a couple of months ago about it, but the search came up with nothing for me.

Full bolt ons to me is CAI, headers, and exhaust. Some guys consider a cam and heads bolt ons, but to me that's "internal engine".

CAI, headers, exhaust, fans, pulleys, and tune. To me a cam is more than just a bolt on.

I have pretty much decided against under drive pulleys on my truck unless it honest provides a noticeable gain.

and i like that a tune is a bolt on

Any modification that does not touch oil. Like the others have said, CAI, Headers, Exhaust, Intake, UDP, Tune, typical free mods.

Nitrous would be considered a power adder, like a turbo or supercharger.
