I recently bought a 97 3.8 Firebird. After i pay it off(Witch im almost done with) i want to do some mods to it to make it quick. I thought one of the best places to start would be a Cold Air intake. And i have been doing some Research online and it looks like SLP makes a good Intake system. What do u guys think? Also how much HP do u think i will gain at the Wheels and at the Crank? Thanks.

Yeah i think i will go with the SLP CAI. I want to do a full exaust system after that. Headers and all. Im thinking for the Cat back i will go with Magnaflow. I like the way they sound. And im sick of Flowmaster everyone has them and it all sounds the same.

I love the way the Magnaflow (catback) looks but haven't heard them. Why are there so many negative reviews on them ...I know its a straight through muffler (no chambers) and with our stock cat and 3.8 I imagine that it could get raspy-but then so does my triflow (although I'm keeping my Triflow, overall [img]smile.gif[/img] ).
i dont know about the SLP cai, but i have the RK sports version and i love it. its probaly a little harder to install since it has a ram air plate which you have to work in under the radiator support brace, but its worth it

I am happy to announce that I have sold the site to Robert (FirebirdGT). Years ago this site went down when TealV6 had it, I bought it, refreshed it,...
Went ahead and moved my starter wire from the back, to the front again since it had no effect on my drain on the battery. Also made me nervous driving...
Building the Tom Henry RS Part 4: Suspension Mods, Tires, Wheels, Headers and other Cool Stuff. By: Hib Halverson
At the end of Part Three, we changed the valvetrain of the 3.8-liter V6 in the Tom Henry RS. We installed new, Yella Terra "Ultralite" 1.8:1, aluminum roller rocker arms, Katech valve springs and Katech titanium retainers on our 3800 Series II V6. Ultralites are nearly 25% lighter than the stock 1.6 rockers and 8% lighter than the SLP aluminum...
