    V6 to take a GT

    im gonna say probably not if your racing a 5spd coupe only because you have a pre 99+ v6. but who knows maybe you could beat an auto coupe or auto vert or maybe they cant drive manual all that great. go and find out! (at the track of course :nice: )

    CAI and exhaust make car worse?

    wow alright well first off no shop should estimate more than 30 min for an install. this is a mod that requries about as much time as it takes to unscrew the bolts and clamps and reconnect them. second there should be no need to disconnect the battery to install a CAI. if i read correctly and...

    Roller Rockers/Valve Springs

    i dont know too much about this but i dont think theyll help you out too much until u get a different cam that provides the lift to make the rockers effective. i know cams made for a supercharger setup will provide enough lift to use some rockers with a quite high ratio (1.80 is about the...

    CAI and exhaust make car worse?

    ok well its definitly not your exhaust(which is what your pricing sounds like your talking about) they basically did nothing to your exhaust but swap out the muffler w/ a flowmaster and weld on another pipe onto your stock TAILPIPE and it doing nothing but making it look like duals and add...

    CAI and exhaust make car worse?

    i dont knnow what to tell you man other than if your CAI is truely installed correctly and your cars not running right then you have a pretty rare case. tons of people(like myself) are running CAI's with zero problems and most of us installed them ourselves. i hope the $50 install was part of...

    3.73's and trak lok

    higher gears give you more oopmh. the higher the number the faster acceleration you get but the lower top end. also the higher the gears the more your gas mileage suffers because the higher gears cause your car to cruise at higher rpms than it normally would. i dont know about auto but a stock...

    CAI and exhaust make car worse?

    i would take it back to the shop that did the install as opposed to autozone just since they installed it and your car shouldnt be having these problems. exhaust is ruled out because the way you had yours done with just one muffler really wouldnt affect anything. i have a feeling that they...

    Is a MACH 1 induction possible on a V6 ?

    ^ thats the CDC kit and yes it will make you have a functional hood scoop(works like ram air) and will be identical to what comes on the mach 1. since u have an 02 your stock hood will be fine but youll have to cut a giant square out in the middle. even tho their pricey ive heard the CDC kits...

    Exhaust backpressure

    i know you already said you dont want to spend $350 but for more power id suggest getting rid of the cats prefferably a v6 off road h-pipe, my personal opinion would be to get a MAC(or other brand) v6 h-pipe w/ high flow cats. itll increase performance some and make your car louder w/o makin it...

    CAI and exhaust make car worse?

    it really sounds like there is something wrong with the way they installed the CAI like something isnt tightened enough. go back to the shop and ask em to look. kinda sounds like something is loose and more air is getting to the engine than should because when i installed my EBAY one they didnt...

    How Fast

    it might be possible but i doubt it. if it is it will be a lot of money for the tranny alone not to mention what kinda custom stuff you would have to do to get it to work on the 6. its likely that its not possible though

    How Fast

    ok sorry about my lack of knowledge on the shift kit(i have a 5spd) a stock v6 block can handle a whole bunch of horsepower but the transmission and rear end im pretty sure start to give around 300hp/300tq but anywhere around there and the right launch will leave your 7.5" rear end in peices...
