oh stop the bragging. I'd put money down to race up against that camaro with my Grand Prix GT with the mods i made to it. :flash:

- SLP Cool Air Induction Kit w/K&N air filters 7-10hp
-Custom Exhaust: No resonator, No U-bend, Performance Mufflers 15hp
-DynoMax Super Converter

-Next Upgrade is probably performance headers.

current estimated hp: 230hp Goal: 250hp even with this kind of hp i got i still think it would take care of your camaro.

By the way.....looks to me you spent TOOOO much money on your v-6 camaro. If i was going to spend that kind of money and time i would have bought a Z-28 camaro with stock 275hp and upgraded from there.

Im sure there are many ppl laughing at what you did with your money.:hehehe: i got a total of $300 max in my car and thats the truth.. im sure you got well over $1000.

Congrats. My first Camaro was a '95 V6. It was a good car. I too looked into upgrading it. But decided that upgrading a V8 would be better (yet, I want to upgrade a 305, go figure ). Anyhow, enjoy your ride, she will take care of you if you take care of her. My first accident was in the '95 'Maro and it did alright. Good luck and kick some ass.

Late but never...

I really havn't had time to get any times yet, winter hit, and so, well, working harde for more parts.

My goal for this car is to have it twin turbo'd with a far, but achivable goal of 500 hp or so. I want to be able to pull up to the line against v-8 or even an ss, in my (little) v-6...so you say Scott, and blow its doors off.

Any ways, I just added another great part. I put the BMR Racing Springs on it. Yes I know there designed for the weight of a V-8, but that is why I got them, the cornering power and plant is awsome. Ridablilty is awsome too.

Any ways, Scott is it, I have one word...JEALOUS!

As for everyone else, thanks for the props.

Man, I need to come into some money so that I can keep the list of my mods growing. When you get that TT'd, come find me. Hopefully by then, I'll have my LS6 conversion with an Icon TT setup myself ...

Now where did I put all of that money...

I know...I know...

I work long and hard for the parts to my car though, just like everyone else. And yes its frustrating to see all of these goodies for the Camaro's adn patience is agonizing. Anyways, I really dont get out much, cause, well, I spend most of my time looking for parts or watching races and etc. It also helps to have a sponsor that helps you get your parts for cost, and cuts you a mad deal on labor. Still gets on the expensive side, but not as much with my sponsors.

And yes I know what your thinking, sponsors...on a V-6... Well im building this car for autocross and road-races. In the town where I live, 50,000 people, tiny I know, Raceing all but up and dissapeared, even the drag strip got closed. The club Im in is trying to get it back open, we go to other towns and race, and well Ive got a few 1st's, a few 2nd's and a few 3rds's, I have yet to finish a race below 3rd place. Oh well, driving fast and racing is what I like to do. So I got the leading drag car mechanic in town to see me race and see what I was made of, and well he sponsor's me. So hey...don't ever give up your dreams.

That's cool. If I had the extra time outside of my major, I'd try and do the same thing, but for now, I'm concentrating on graduating from college. That's my big money pit for now ...

No, Just thought it would have been more productive and better if you put your money you spent on the 3.8 into a race car or a V-8. Still nice mods and im sure the thing it fast.

Thanx Scott...

Thanx for the remark, I meant no offense...
Oh, and its a 3.4L...yah I know its small, it is getting fast though.
The insurance on a z28 and ss is huge for me, and the other reason is that I like to try for the impossible, and every body says it can't be done so...a 3.4L v-6, that blows the doors off of a SS is pretty impossible, so I thought it would be worth a try.
Another reason is the weight on a 3.4 is considerably lighter than that of a v-8, and for autocross thats a bonus.
