Yeah...not so much. The singleport (94-98) motors make around 130rwhp and the splitport motors (99-04) make around 160rwhp.

Yeah. I know. That's rwhp, I'm talking about at the crank.

False again. It doesn't take 4k to beat on the 99-04 GT's. All your particular car needs is the splitport swap, a 75 shot fo nitrous, anda tune.

Well, I guess I didn't research well enough. I didn't even know about the splitport thing until after I posted this :P
Still can't find where I can get the kit, though.

Links?

Check your local boneyard for split-ports.

You do realize that pretty much only auto manufactures use crank HP and that's only because it allows an industry standard, right? Stick with citing rwhp numbers or you'll start to sound like a ricer.

The cheapest price I have found is at Super Six Motorsports (www.supersixmotorsports.com).

Actually... the 3.8L's have approx 150 HP while the 3.9L's have approx 193.

I'm so p*ssed... I have a 3.8L... a '98. One year off that extra 43 HP

3.9 was 2004 only. 99-03 still used the 3.8.

The 4.0 C o l l e c t i v e (google it) will be a great place for you gather info on 4.0 stuff. With a few boltons and a tune expect to make a little over 200rwhp and 230rwtq.
