Hey, y'all. Now that I have 335-30-18's on the rear of my 2000 V6 and 265-35-18's on the front, I think it needs to be as fast as it looks. Short of trading it in for a Cobra, I am looking to do some low-buck, bolt-on mods to my 3.8 to give it some more guts. Where to start?

I am thinking of the following:

Theoretically, if I did all of these, how would he run? Almost as important, how would he sound? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

first thing to do....trade it in for a cobra or add to more cylinders to it

 

Longtubes are a great mod, but don't forget you'll need an aftermarket mid-pipe and might as well get a cat-back while your at it... CAI's arent that bad but don't expect alot from them and stay away from those eBay "chips"

 

those "chips" on ebay are a load of sh*t. never buy one. its nothing more then a resistor you could buy for a nickle at radio shack. it will not do anything but screw up your computer

 

i had a 01 v6 and wanted to engine swap for a cobra r engine but i ould look into a turbo or supercharger for it

 

I'm feeling you 87! But, hey, monetary restraints!! But check this out! Looks just like mine!

Lucky, I'm starting to believe. I'm going to avoid that little thing. But the other, the gorilla chipz (3rd item), that looks legit. Second item, the throttle body spacer, I've heard adds 5-10 HP. If I can pick it off, every little bit helps. Long tubes with true duals and cold air may start to get me there (short of 2 more cylinders - no replacement for displacement).

Any good leads on a supercharger for a V6? Some would say spending money like that on a V6 is like putting lipstick on a pig. Now, if it was less than a grand........
