ok now ever scince i can remember i loved sports cars. now im 19 years old and have been driving for about 2 years. i had a little cavalier untill i got cut off and hit a telephone pole. but thats besides the point. so i always wanted a V8 not to go fast just knowing u got it and the sound and its a great engine to make a monster out of. alot of u guys prob no what im talkingabout.but my parent wouldn't let me so i had to settle for a 2002 3.8l V6. my question is what can i do to the engine to try and make it somewhat of a monster or is it even worth it. should i wait and get a V8 latter?

 

Go to a junkyard and find yourself a thunderbird supercoupe. Rip off the whole top end of the motor including heads, supercharger, intake, wire harness, fuel rails.. basically EVERYTHING off of the top. Slap it on your car, then itll be supercharged and surprise a lot of eople.
-P.

 

i also forgot to mention my parents made me get warranties so i imaggine that would viod them i paid bout $5000-$6000 in warranties

 

supercharger will make some nice power but kinda expensive. its worth it too fix it up butit is going too be alot money,really i would wait if you really want the v8 sound and power but its your choice, my v6 has only one magnaflow muffler and k&n filter and roush springs and its pretty fast too me compared too stock but really you need too ask yourself if you want to invest in your sixer or save for a v8 in my opinion i would fix up the six it can blow a gt with the right mods.

 

$5000 - $6000 in warranties? Man did they spot a sucker when the saw you. Sorry man but those extra warranties are such a rip off.

 

i don't even know where to start on mods besides the supercharger and some juice like i said i had a cavalier before this i was thinkin a bout a chip but idk

 

well yea they got me on the 5 year powertrain warrenty the low jack that was $1000 alone but saves me $400 a year on car insurance so it was worth it and like dents and digs they fix latter i found outanything over 2 inches isn't covered but i got the hole shabang

 

a thunderbird charger isnt gonna fit his 02 splitport, if u dont care about the power but love the sound, get u a cam and a nice exhaust set up and u will be sounding like an 8

 

At your age, V8 insurance will rape you. Keep the sixer and just add FI. I wouldn't bother with a V8 car until you hit 25. That's when insurance drops like rock.

Thats funny!Keep in mind he has a splitport v6. Thats a good idea for a singleport... He'll do all this work to get the M90 adapted to his car and net about 10 horses. Yea, he'll suprise alotta people that hes supercharged and still slow as hell. You can wait for a m112 kit from supersix, or procharge/vortech supercharge it and you'll be around 280-300 rwhp.
