How much possible horse?

my cousin billy said we are gonna rebuild my engine this winter in the garage bc i dont drive in the winter. He said we were gonna bore it out and get better valves and every thing he said we can get an extra 150 horse out of it. Do u think this is possible to get that much out of the v6 3.4 liter if we hook it up with out supercharger and turbo and nos?

150 HP without forced induction or nitrous?

If I may quote The Fast and The Furious:

What do they plan on racing with...hopes and dreams?

No way...won't happen.

But 150 is way to much.

maybe with gen III heads, a lot of porting and a cam that wont idle, and a new rotating assembly it would be possible, however unless you wanna research the **** outta it and spend a lot of time,money,tears, and blood on it dont count on anything more than 30-40 HP

He said "And everything else" - but either way boring out a 3.4 isn't really all that effective. The 3.4 block is pretty much bored out to its max stock seeing as GM bored and stroke the 2.8 to hit that displacement. I think one or two people have ever bored their 3.4 with any result and it totaly wasn't worth the $$$ if you ask me.
