demello you realize that post was not to helpful at all

theres plenty of bolt on modifications you can do
theres a thread about this on a sticky at the very top of the v6section of this forum
reading that would be very helpful

most will say to start with your basic bolt ons
cold air intake
exhaust
then a pulley and tuner

+ gears. they don't really add HP but your butt dyno will love them.

I'd say go straight for gears. You'll feel the difference more than every bolt on combined.

sry chris ill be more specific and help him out

you got your basic bolt ons that add hp/tq wizard such as catback, midpipe, headers, cold air intake, throttle body, plenum, underdrive pullies, a tuner (x cal 3 or diablo), and a couple other things

then you have gears which will throw you back in your seat just as much if not more as a bunch of those bolt ons i just listed. if you do gears you want a t-lock as well and a tuner to fix your speedo would be best but you can use a speedo recal if you want

of course you then have suspension which like gears wont help with power but will make you faster (springs, shocks, strusts, lower control arms, upper control arms, etcs.....)

if you have a 5 speed i would suggust a short throw shifter (steeda, mgw, and 5.0 are suppose to be great assuming they make them for sixxers)

with all that you cant do anything else except for getting into the engine and getting forced induction

forced induction is either nitrous, a supercharger, or a turbo and either one will make you faster then the guy that has full bolt ons

or you can get into the engine by either replacing the whole thing and getting forged internals or doing cams and heads

and depending on how much of this you actually do your probably gonna want drag radials and need a dyno tune
