      Well I haven't fully made up my mind as to what I want to do. Can't decide between just doing some mild power adders to the V6 or saving up for an engine swap. Half tempted to buy the hooker blackheart parts and store them for an engine swap and just keep the V6 with a header upgrade for the time being. I bought the car 12 years ago with a flowmaster exhaust done and I've added a KN cold air intake since.

        If your going to do a swap then I wouldn’t do any engine upgrades, not even headers. Do suspension, appearance and interior.

          Ya agreed, if doing an engine swap focus on suspension and the rear end.

          Engine swaps are expensive, in all honesty you could probably spend less on a turbo build and be faster for cheaper than it would cost you to run a swapped motor and then mod it.

          My LS1 bolt ons and Ford 8.8 rear end with a 3600 stall and 3.73’s is running mid 12’s last I was out. A 3.8 turbo’d car would ruin my day. At least until I get a Cam in it…
