w/e you do dont go and spend money on little mods like under drive pulleys, if your gonna spend money go all out, i regret every tiny mod i did just to get a couple horses, nitrous would be the best way to go but many people are weary about using nitrous so your best bet while being cheap is just gut the car but thats alittle extreme just to beat a gt, tell us a spending limit, whether the cars a daily driver and whats your limits are regarding nitrous or any kind of forced induction

Are you guys kidding? I know your joking to an extent for $$ purposes but if he had the resources nitrous would destroy his v6, wouldn't he need a forged bottom end? atleast.. I doubt a stock v6 would hold up to a shot of nitrous.

You're wrong..... A v6 would stand up to a 100 shot at the most if the motor was in top shape with a good tune. I have well over 130 passes this year alone on my '01 with about an 80+ shot. The figures in my sig was with a 75 shot.

Nitrous is a cheap and easy power adder......

Oh, well my bad. Those are really impressive numbers for a v6. How did you figure it at 267 rwhp, did you have it on a dyno or g-tech? And that was with the nitrous?

Nitrous loves torque, so it was easy. Just because you're throwing a 75 shot at it does not mean your tq only goes up 75. It is more like 1.5:1+ for torque figures on the juice.

I had my car dynoed of course. My baseline figures were 193rwhp, and 240rwtq. The dyno video is around the V6 talk area somewhere along with my Son's V6 turbo car that put down 448rwhp, and 657rwtq recently. His car is a beast! I have since added long tubes, and a Windstar upper intake to decrease my intake temps and reduce heat soak.

I found that connector you were looking for
Cindy, is this the thing you were looking for?
www.liangdianup.com/computeraccessories_1.htm
It's on the list of computer accessories and parts. They have the DVI video thing to convert that jap monitor to work with your other computer. Just about any other kind of wire adaptor, usb connectors, monitor extension wires, ps2 extention wires, and all kinds of female and male swap connectors and things that I think would help your shop. If that above link don't work then goto www.lducompany.com and click on computer accessories. Let me know if that is what you need and give me your email address again.
