180* thermostat. if you have cats on, remove the mufflers. the cats will provide enough back pressure to make the motor run right. the mufflers are just added restriction

that won't add power unless you have raised the compression ratio, are supercharged, nitroused or have other power adders. high octane gas actually burns slower.

CAI, remove air silencer, advance timing,remove screen on MAF, performance spark plugs, shorty headers, flexlite fan,performance mufflers,if an A/T (Thottle enhancer calibrator) i helps get to the higher rpms quicker.
