    right now i have a stock 02 3.8l v6...first things first I wanted to do something to make it louder/more noticable and get a little performance outta it too, ecutouts, ive read are the best way but i want something that will be worth the money...if anyone could give me some web sites and good brands of things for the following exhaust products

    headers:
    exhaust systems:
    electric cutout(i realize there's no point in getting an exhaust system if im getting a cutout but I just want sites to compare pricing and other info):
    high flow cats:

    i was considering ripping off the stock exhaust and making a custom tru dual exhaust system, if anyone has any sites on the best route to take for the piping that would be great.

    i was also wondering which is better, cold air intake or ram air...ive heard mixed opinions about each

    other good intake mods??:

    sites for gears:
    shift kits:
    performance programmers:

    Re: mods

    Headers I like RKSport , have 3 bolt flanges put on instead of the 2 bolt. Or there are Pacesetters, for either one,I would get them with the coating.
    Exhaust, just take it to a exhust shop and do 3" from the Y pipe from the headers back, magaflow makes a good high flow cat or the exhaust shop might have one for cheaper.For a good mellow tone without rasp I like the Summit Turbo muffler 3" in/3" out. Ebay has good deals on electric cutouts with the pipe included might ask the exhaust shop might be cheaper.
    1. Ebay, GM motive gears $150 pick your gear
    2. Ebay, Shift kit Transgo HD $90-$100
    3. Hptuners $500 to $600
    I would also look into a Wideband like a PLX, Ebay for like $300 or so.
    Intake I have no idea on a 02' with a lid, mioght search the forum.

            Yea, I saw it somewhere but cant remember where. Our cars sound ok with true duals but Im not sure of the gains out of it exactly. I know this one guy (not sure if it was on here or another forum) ran 2.75in true duals and it didnt soudn too bad. Then again he also had a cam and such.

              You're going to have to get under your car. But this may help:
