Hey all...

Okay, so I bought a completely stock '07 V6 a couple years ago, and I'm considering what I might do to up the horsepower. I'm considering several things - CAI, throttle body, headers, x-exhaust - haven't decided yet, and am still researching. My question is this...how many horses can I increase before I either a) outdo my engine's capacity to hold them or b) outdo the rest of my drivetrain's capacity?

Thanks,

Tom

The bolt-ons you mention won't exceed the capacity if you aren't beating on the car frequently. If you beat on the car frequently you'll break parts in stock trim. Smooth is the rule. Roll into the throttle instead of just flat footing it. No worries about full throttle, just be easy on the shifts when you aren't at the track. Is the car Auto or Manual?
