Do K&N air filter
Top Gun performance leads and Performance Plugs give the car extra kilowatts??

 

[EXCESSV]

K&N Filter will let the air flow better and will have some gain but will need the extractors and exhaust to make the most of it.
as for leads and plugs: more for smoother running.
performance leads and plugs are more for when you do more than just minor mods like you want.
just change them when they are required when servicing. i dont see the need to spend the money on them unless the car is running rough or missing

ok a little under half a tank(from empty light on to FULL)....thats with the more expensive BP Ultimate 98

it will at least give you a couple of hours of fun to test the new gear out.

Its not really worth spending all that money on a ECOTEC V6.

Better spending the money on an engine that responds to tuning like a GenIII V8 or a Turbo VL

The ECOTECH V6 is a slow heap of ****

we got some friends at a place called "blue-chip tuning" that might beg to differ.... :thumbsup:

$2500 would be close to get you a sv6 wich are apparently good for over 400hp with stock internals, would prolly work out better than spending $2500 on your ecotec
