Ok, so there seems to be a little misunderstanding among some of the newer members and a very select few Veterans here about the difference between Modding, Tuning and Hacking.
In their own right each shouldn't be hard to understand but as Modding and Hacking are getting misused as a term for Hybridding I would like to provide the proper definitions for all three.
Modding-
The practice of modifying a production car to alter its appearance or to increase performance. I.e. Adding purchasable parts as the game intended
Tuning-
To make adjustment to. I.e. setting your Gears set or Downforce
Hacking-
To manually access save files and alter the Characteristics of a vehicle or part of said vehicle I.e. To make 3k hp Civic
note: Mods this may be helpful as a sticky for new members to make sure they can understand the difference
