Weakest point


Hey guys....I have been out of the loop for a while. I have an 03 V6 and wondering what would be the weakest point of our cars? I am getting ready to put some gears, UDP's, a tune and a 75 shot of Zex. I am also picking up colder plugs. I have the RPM switch and heater. Just wondering what I need to look out for. I plan on changing the oil out for Some Royal Purple or something comparible. Any help would be great. Thanks

when u get gears u might as well get a tlok too...no use in opening the rear 2 times. royal purple is a little much for just a stock car...IMO its just a waste of money to spend that much on regular oil changes are a stock vehicle

oh ok. Well maybe some Q would do the job. I did forget to mention I have the T-Loc going in as well. I agree, no need to open it twice.

I am just trying to make sure I have what I need to support the 75 shot I am throwing up there. Not going any higher then that. Just for some fun at the track.

From what I hear, anything over a 75 shot would need to be tuned and also some other mods are needed. I will basically have CAI, Exhaust, gears, UDP, and the 75 shot. Jsut want to be sure everything will hold together. With out abuse ofcourse.

you should probably get a tune even for the 75 shot. it would most likely be in your best interest just so nothing can go wrong

sweet, after i get all my basic mods out of the way that i want, i think i might want to run a 50 shot, or even maybe a little sneaky bottle out of the way, just for on the side fun use.

Ok. Well I have an SCT Excal so I will get the tune done on the 75 shot . Not too big a deal. I appreciate it. I just want it to run well with no problems.

because of your mods such as the nitrous, id say the weak point is your 7.5" rear end. dont even try buildin it up. just swap it out for an 8.8" rear that can handle the power
