Default What mod can I do for my 3.0 engine???

I am thinking about a chip maybe or something that would give me some more Hp. Since I dont have a turbo (for now) there is not much I can do but the exterior mods.
Anybody with any Hp mods for me????
TIA

Default intake/exhaust wont get you much...they have an s/c for the 3.0 now

high comp pistons if you feel adventerious...but keep in mind that youd have to change them again for s/c

Default Re: trade for a 2.7 or 4.2

I drove this car for a year now never had any problems. It has 72K, I bought it with 52k. Im sceptic about trading it in and then I get something that would give me problems. So till this baby runs I would not think about trading it in. But I cant get to get a 2.7 six speed

Default if you have a car that is working for you....

and you're happy with it, I wouldn't jump to get into something else. It's like a gamble....

Nothing worse (well, I guess there is) then getting into a used car that in the shop every couple of weeks.
