[jpretz]

Alright now I know that this is a DSM site, but my buddy needs help pulling power out of his Malibu. He doesn't want anything ricey, and hes not going prostreet but he wants to have a few more ponies under his hood.

Thanks for your help guys...

*$0-3000

Sorry Kiel... :grouphug:

CAI (from a Grand Am, Beretta, Corsica compatible cars) ($150 Max)


Exhaust from any muffler shop ($300 Max)


Plugs/Wires/Injectors?? ($300 Max?)


Nitrous ($600 Max)

If I'm not mistaken, I think someone makes headers (Edelbrock Maybe?)

My friend Mike also says there is a Blower out there somewhere....


Mike had an older Corisca 3.1L V6 and ran 14.7. Impressive since it was 3 different colors.

GM Performance Parts makes a Hot Cam for the 2.8L & 3.1L V6
You could mill the heads/ Cam it/ Chip it/ exhaust and youd be around 210BHP and enough torque to make it a little more fun to drive. Dunno if you'll need a higher stall converter for the auto with that cam. (Mine was a 5sp Berreta)

It was just an idea. That was the set up my friend ran.
