The First Steps


I put in a new intake on my 2000, v6. Im not sure what i should do next or what producer is the best to use. How do i get the most power out of a v6? any help?
on a side note, i was wondering how many car lengths a gt stock would beat a v6 stock?

well if you really want the biggest gain get a supercharger, or turbocharger, bolt on really wont give u much hp, eventually a bunch will but its only gunna add 5,10, 15, 20 hp tops at a time. but i'd say get
exuast
t-loc
gears
headers
UD pulley
SCT X-cal 2
then cams.
