i think my car has the 3800 Performance Package...it has 4-wheel disc brakes, a dual exhaust, 16" tires, etc. my question is, does the package actually add any horsepower to the mix, or is it just for show? i know the only real horsepower would come from the dual exhaust, but is it a real, free-flowing one or just a show piece?

In 1998 they started putting 4 wheel disk brakes on all V6's and 16" wheels are standard. As for your question I believe the Y87 package is just 3.42 gears and limited slip differential.
EDIT: http://tech.firebirdv6.com/y87.html
I thought 3.42 gears were included? But they are not listed.

3.42's are part of Y87 as well as LSD...which don't give you more horsepower but let you take off a lot harder than a firebird/camaro with 3.08's and no LSD
Also you have a better steering rack and possibly better suspension...don't know about that one though.
Edit-If you have a manual you still have 3.23s...but you get LSD with it.Shawn<br />2002 Silver W68 FirebirdComment

Look inside your door and/or in your glovebox for the 3 digit code Y87. Here are some other codes you may like to look for. http://tech.firebirdv6.com/generalspecs.html95 Firebird<br /> <a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/673250\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/673250</a> <br /> <a href=\"http://photobucket.com/albums/y217/andrewbrandon19/\" target=\"_blank\">http://photobucket.com/albums/y217/andrewbrandon19/</a> <br /><br />me on a good day------> <a href=\"http://communicatio.webblogg.se/images/wet_cat_113159625.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">linky</a>Comment
