What should my next mod be?


This is what I got done so far.

Headers
Upgraded spark plug wires.
BBK UD pulleys
Magnaflow Excaust with H pipe(got a good deal)
K&N Air filter.


When i bought my car there were all new gaskets on the top of the engine. where it says 3.8L. so im guessing there was work done there. The headers were on her when I bought her aswell.

really there are not alot of simple bolt-on options available any more. i am kind of in the same situation, i have nearly all of those things. so, next thing im getting are gears (4.10). if you have the money you could go for a turbo or supercharger. split port heads?

NOS is a brand, you've been watching too much fast&furious...


Anyway, split port swap would do wonders. You're getting to the end of mods where you're gonna have to start spending $$$$

Not bad to who? Most of the HS kids here who are struggling bolting on long tube headers?

Or people who have done extensive engine work?!

Then what motor do you go with it to make it a worth wild swap? [unless all you want is sound]

Honestly check with your DMV and ask what % tint is legal...in Hawaii its 35% bbut they let it slide if u got 30% I got 20% on mines and never got a ticket...and you should get a t-lok,3.73 gears(5 seed)4.10(auto),and a tuner.If u dont have the money to buy them one time get them one at a time and install the t-lok and gears one time cheaper for labor work at a shop.Then use the tuner after to colaberate ur speedometer.Worth the wait im still saving up money for my gears got the t-lok just got to wait and be patient.

I drop would would make you ride look a lot nicer. Don't forget about your suspension. A drop and new shocks and struts will help with handling.

Also, are the headers Long Tube or shorties?
