    Post vx ecotec v6 performance

    hey guys i have a 2000 vx acclaim i already have a hurricane performance catback exhaust system and i was wondering where my money would be well spent. I don't just want cheap power so much as what is going to help the engine perform at it's best. Cheers in advance for any help

    Manifold and plenum spacers, cold air induction, and a decent set of roller rockers will get you started for a small amount of
    cash, i have just fitted the plenum and manifold spacers and the CAI box from mace engineering and there is a noticable powergain for under $700, maybe after those i would go larger throttle body and MAF and a retune, after that everything starts to have big $ signs all over it.

    Ive decided to turbo mine to save spending to much money on very little power gain.

    i also have installed mace plenum spacer, manifold insulator & CAI i also have a 2.5inch cat back, corvette servo and 82 degree thermostat and ive noticed alot.
    you've got your exhaust, so yeah go the spacers,CAI, roller rockers. add a bigger ratio LSD and a shift kit then go get a tune and you'll be pretty pleased i reckon. Or as everyone says and know one wants to hear...save your money to get that sweet 8 when your off your p's.
