Anyone mod a 2000 Camaro 3.8L V6?

Just wondering what type of potential the 3800 V6 has?

Are there performance parts for them?

Any idea how much power they can make?

Check out ZZ Performance.

Be aware that a lot of those parts are for W-bodies (e.g. Grand Prix) and may not be compatible with a Camaro.

I believe you can add 100+hp without too much trouble, but I strongly recommend that you find someone to advise you who has actual experience. Unfortunately, I don’t think you’ll find that person here.

...back in the day, there were a few guys that supercharged them and were giving Z28's at the time a run for their money... The 3.8 was a reliable V6. I had a '96 V6, and back then RKSport was the go to company for V6 performance. They had exhaust systems, CAI's, Headers, and supercharges for them back in the day... I personally had their V6 dual exhaust...I think it was a dynamax muffler if I remember correctly. I'll attach some pics from some catalogs I had back in the day. the 3.8 V6 ran from '95 (CA models, '96-up rest of us) - 2002.

Thanks for the replies.

I'll keep checking to see what we can do with it. But ZZ performance does have some interesting stuff.

Oh, and this isn't staying in an F-body. I have a wrecked low mileage 2000 Camaro, a 2004 Civic with a bad engine. And I couple of guys looking for something to do in Votech. This might be fun!
