Upgrading V6

What are you guys planning to do this year to your v6 this summer?
So far I have a new exhaust system install today and planning to repaint, install K&N cold air intake, 17" performances tires, and a peformance chip to awaken the sleeper potential.

Re: Upgrading V6

Not to sure right now performance wise...

I got the car in january and so far I've put on a k&n oil+air filter, whisper air lid, and whisper cold air induction.. "And a few goodies for the looks.."

Probably get an edelbrock catback soon, with a cat and cutout. Then later on a tsp tune.

Then save up for some chrome ss rims..

heres a pic of it right now

Re: Upgrading V6

that car is hot, and the two in the background aren't bad either. makes me wish i had t-tops.

this summer i'm planning on...



SLP cai/rai
whisper lid + K&N filter
custom catback
black letter "camaro" inserts

and a CD player that doesn't spit out discs and scream err!

most of all i'm just stoked to be getting my car back. i bought it in november and this should be the first time that it'll actually be working like it should. i'll be picking her up on this monday and i can't wait.

Re: Upgrading V6

Well, let's see...
Researching Cams / Lifters / Rockers / Springs
Got my rims, gotta get 'em mounted
Same as Frusciante, gotta get a CD player that don't spazz on me
Replacing all gaskets on the top half
MAYBE sand and body filler for paint prep

Good times
