I usually don't do this but...

If you have 10,000$ to spend why did you buy a v6?

I would rather have a fixed up v6 than a gt anyway, if I had $10,000 I would be makin my v6 fast as hell, doing everything I could think of to it.

My insurance went up like $10 a month switching the 98 v6 to an 04 GT. Wanna buy me a twin turbo kit? ...Seriously.


Build the engine, tranny, and rear end up and try to get a twin turbo kit with the money left over. Thats what I would do. If ya don't wanna do that I'm always here for a twin turbo kit for my GT. I'm not gettin it am I?


Seriously though. Build the car up, and then throw a poweradder on it if your stuck with the 6, and want to make it pretty nice.

It does not, and my gas mileage is better with my GT than with the six. $10 more a month, and better gas mileage...if I don't get on it. How is it really that bad?
