yep. if u do it piece by piece, minor bolt on by bolt on, youll be broke, and pushing maybe 15-20 hp over stock with a pulley, an intake, and a full exhaust. tapping into the motor is the best route for serious power. think about working from the inside out. trust me, coming from a guy who did it the other way, you wanna do it right the first time. im still saving cash for my build..iuts a slow process, but i just keep dreaming of my finished product.

RE: CAI Problems
Price varies for each.
Depending on the mileage of your V6. The split-port kit from super six motorsports is $800, it would cost more if you took it to a shop and had them do the install. If you have higher miles on your V6 then I would just look at doing the whole split-port engine swap.
I would also say do the entire M90 engine swap if you have higher miles. The kits for the M90's vary but I have seen them from 400-800 dollars. That is just for the supercharger and piping and assorted other items.
You do havea 94-98 V6 don't you? Those only work on the 94-98 models.

RE: CAI Problems
I would probably just look for either a split-port engine with lower miles or an M90 engine with lower miles. You could still do either of the swaps but 'I' wouldn't recommend adding a supercharger to your car with those miles on it. The split-port really won't affect it all that much besides adding power.
The reason I would do an engine swap is because it will be roughly the same amount of money to do the split-port swap or the split-port engine swapif you are paying someone to do the install. Think about it, the same amount of money for the same amount of power with lower miles.
