Unless she's a speed demon like yourself...Why not just do some appearance mods?
Fast toys ram air,lid, high flow filter and exhaust will help get more horseys/responsiveness.

its a 98 silver camaro 3.8 with t-tops, I think it has like a sport package of some sort because I noticed rear discs and a dual outlet muffler. is this a package or is it just options??? also does this have posi? or am I going to have to check the code or just smoke would be pretty easy.
Unsung Hero (http://v6camaro.homestead.com/unsung_hero.html) Just a old article.
You/she might have a Y87 package.Being that the dual exhaust is present but not determining Y87 package but part of. Check the driver door codes. If the car is a A4 Y87 it'll have a G80 code for limited slip and GU6 for 3.42 rear gears.If its a Manual(t5) Y87 it'll have the G80 for limited slip and GU5 for 3.23 rear gears. I you got those codes no doubt it the Y87 option...cream of the crop.
As for the rear disk brakes those are standard on all 98+ V6s.

well I'll check that tomorrow but today was the first chance I got to drive the car w/o the dealer in it and I'm impressed it does have posi though found out sliding her around corners, to be honest with you I never thought those V-6's were close to that fast, burning them from a five mph roll is pretty good for a lil V-6. I have to apologize to all you V-6 owners for under-estimating your cars power to the F-bods
