Re: Getting more out of my car

do a search...or read the first 10 pages of the forum

i think this question has been asked before

basic idea...easier air in...easier exhaust out. and since it's a m6...a nice shifter makes it much more fun to drive

A good tuneup is always a good start.

Re: Getting more out of my car

like said above, get the car working perfect with a tune up and then move to intake, exhaust,and then try to get more spark and fuel. then you can get gears. 3.73 are nice gears for everyday driving. im trying to get more out of my car too and so far with exhaust and intake i can feel it not gasping for air. i have gears and i am very satisfied with the 3.73's ,makes the engine work less and makes the car peppy. i gave it some performance plugs and wires and new opti, new injectors and everything.
