stroker? or exterior work
Awhile ago onemanzu gave me a site.. Tom Morana Racing Engines... Now they have a 4.5 stroker kit for the 4.0. $2,500 for everything.. Im I have Cai, Tuner, T-lok and waiting for my gears to get here to get installed with the t-lok....
I know everybody said after that work on suspension, looks, brakes.. Would this be something to look into and worth it? How much do you think the labor would cost to get that stroker kit put in? And the HP, I would see from it? after I get my T-lok and gears installed then its either that stroker kit or.. MagnaFlow exhaust Cervini ram air hood Duck tail spoiler Roush window louvers Im just gonna paint my stock side skirts that are on it.. I hate the grey color Im thinkin either Black FR500 18.9 in front and 18.10 in rear or 17.9 bullits chrome and 18.10 in the rear... Painting all these other parts.. Cervin v6 b2 chin spoiler i sold my other car to a friend of mine so I have ruffly $4500 comming in.. So let me know what you guys think about the stroker kit.. Or any other exterior work you think would be better.. |

it all depends on if you would rather have power or looks. i dont have an estimate of how much of a hp increase you will get for the 4.5 stroker but you should see some good hp numbers from it, plus more potential with other bolt on mods. the installation will cost you a pretty penny, i would call some shops in your area and get some estimates.

stroker kit installed about 3500-4000 (labor and parts) with the 500 left over get a nice custom flowmaster full exhaust IMO, if you want to do looks go for your list except get a custom exhaust not a kit, but IMHO if it looks fast it better go fast

LOL.. Dayum That much for labor huh... WOW.. NY is prolly gonna be a lil more.. Its really hard.. I re-enlist next year for a really awsome chunk of change and thats when i plan on doing my s/c... Im gonna need new tires after the nasty snow in ny...
From the videos Ive heard on youtube and a guy on post with a 06v6 flowmasters I dont really like em. There so dayum quiet compared to the 3.8.. 3.8 sound awsome with them. So far ive only like borla..( To dayum much) or magnaflow.. So if it looks fast then it betta go fast.. DANG... IDK.. Imma call some shops... So that way if I go internals then It will be a sleeper lol... Look like a stock v6 with exhaust.. By the way whats IMHO stand for.. |

I've never heard the pypes mid muffler system so it might be loud.
