Anyone who has great advise to add MORE POWER to the V6, please post!

 

Isn't a thread like this already a sticky in this section?

Trade it in for a GT.

 

Did that have anything to do with his question? If you are so against the V6, then why are you reading in the V6 section?

 

I'd say definitely a CAI w/tuner is probably the best performance mod for the buck

 

turbo it.

 

Yeah, that too...

 

I'd definitely do the turbo, but then again I'm a bit biased.

 

NOS stickers and underbody neons for sure

cant wait until i have cash saved up for a CAI and Tuner.

 

Supercharging is better than turbocharging, IMO.

Don't listen to DoctorQ ... being the middle child sucks!! Get the big bro (GT500) with real muscle, or stay with the baby, with potential.

 

lol, +1

 

Any ideas other than tuning, supercharging and.....adding stickers?
What about headers and intakes, any recommended?

 

Go with a CAI and underdrive pulleys to get about 20 rwhp. See this article for more info...

Man I hadnt read that article yet, how in the world did I miss that one? Good read.

 

I think the best way to do it is talk to a guy named TillmanSpeed, he's got the C&L Trueflow intake and SCT XCal2 with 3 custom tunes for $615.99 shipped to the door or the JLT intake with the SCT XCal2 with 3 custom tunes for 539.99 shipped to the door!

 

I'm just trying to figure out why there is a Poll on this thread oh, and nice plug there Tillmanspeed

 

Thanks!

 

RDK - In my opinion you can't just ask "How do I get more power?"

You have to sit down and figure out what direction am I taking this car in and what power level is suitable for that task?

If you are just looking for moderate gains, good suspension and a car that won't see the track, then base your research from there.

On the other hand, if you are going for a beast, then your start looking at forced induction, suspension to compliment that, etc...

So before we can give any advice, you first have to answer that.

 

Okay, so which CAI is better, the JLT or the C&L?

They C&L is said to get maybe 2-3 more horsepower than the JLT, but the price difference, most people go with the JLT. If you want the extra few horsepower, along with the seal for the hood, the C&L is a little nicer quality-wise. Not to say the JLT is bad quality, because it's very nice as well.

For the money, the JLT only loses 2-3 horsepower for quite a bit less (like $80).

I reccomend the C&L with XCal2 for $615.99 shipped to the door.

You will still get a great quality product and substantial horsepower and torque gains going with the JLT unit.

The JLT CAI with XCal2 is $539.99 shipped to the door.
