Hey,
I have a 1989 buick century 2 DR sport suspension v6 3.3 engine
I love this car... I put 2 12" sub woofers in the back it rattles like crazy cause there is a "cage" thing on the back.. but i think i am going to get a dynamat to get it to stop...
There is alittle leakage in the trunk of like water or something... any clue??
Also... I love my car i want it to go faster.. I replaced the first 3 spark plugs and wires.... been busy to do the others.... but i really want it to go faster... and without replacin the engine with like a gnx engine or soemting lol...
If anyone can think of anything i would greatly appreciate it..
Thank you very much!!
Ben

Your car is basic transportation. The engine/trans combo in your car doesn't take well to mods, nor does the aftermarket offer anything for it. Take the money you were thinking about spending on go-fast parts, and spend it on rims/tires/etc to personalize it, or on more stereo equipment to tick off your neighbors. Just remember, those cars are rediculously easy to steal (any 1/2 ass car thief could be gone in under a minute from the moment he touches it), and the more attention you draw to it, the more likely it is to be taken.

I agree with richtazz, "your car is basic transportation"! The plugs you selected are nice, however, the price sucks. You can get the same plug HERE (http://www.partsamerica.com/ProductDetail.aspx?MfrCode=NGK&MfrPartNumber=7164&PartType=960&PTSet=A) (in stock) for half the price, with no shipping charge! You can restore most of the original performance with wires, plugs, fuel filter and air cleaner. Anything other than routine maintenance would be a waste of hard earned money!
