i have asked this before but everyone agrues what is best. So i will ask again. I have a 2004 v6 3.9L manual. It has like 33k miles. I want to keep it as a v6 because in the end will be cheaper than swap and all. As much as i love an N/a car, i dont think i can get the car at where i want it to be naturally aspirated.

I dont want the stroker 4.2 or the f150 swapped 4.2 because thats too much money that i dont have, as a college student. I only forced induction i would want is a Supercharger, so please dont post telling what i could do with a turbo or the bottle. I know what it can do but i dont want that. Especially nitrous, thats so cheap of power. I want power all the time and shouldnt have to refill it.

I'm not looking at serious race car, i want to keep it as daily driver, but running high 12's low 13;s. I think thats like 300-350 rwhp

Thanks for the help

For a grand I think the best things to do in order are:
1. Get a K&N free flowing cold air intake system
2. get 4.11 gears in the rear
3. get a dual program chip set up and get it properly tuned on a dyno
4. suspension mods to get good hook up

im getting a stock gt rear 8.8 from my friend for little less than 200. i dunno how hard it is to install. those supercharger's are for v8's i have the v6. i heard that cai's you dont really notice much power inless you have a lot of mods. Right now i have true dual exhaust, and took the snorkle off the stock intake for more flow, and i have a k&n filter.
