  • Newbie to Camaro's here

    Hey all I just purchased a 1995 3.4L V-6 Camaro last week and so far i love it. I was wondering what would be a good mod for it without dishing out alot of money. Im thinking about the K and N intake, magnaflow exhaust, and a new cd player. Any other suggestions take in mind im only 18 and cant really break the bank fixing up the car to much.

    ok I'll say it first before everyone else. search. there's a number of "free" or near free mods you can do to get some extra HP. Just go to the general tech and search.

        Im not sure of the technical name of it but i go with Burgundy. I thought i got a pretty good deal for it 5000 for only 48,000 miles so color didnt really bother me.

                  The K&N, a high-flow exhaust, and underdrive pulleys will perk up the 3.4 for little cost. As already mentioned, use the search feature - there is a ton of info here.

                  Welcome. Post some pics when you get some.

                    My theory is, before any modding should take place, you should give it a full tuneup -Plugs, wires, air & fuel filters, oil & filter, trans fluid & filter change, seafoam it, etc. If I was buying a used car, I wouldn't trust anyone's advice if they say "everything's up to date and it doesn't need anything". I will change all of the parts and fluid myself just to ease my mind.

                    K&N makes an awesome stock/replacement filter, but I'd recommend buying a cold air kit or making your own cold air kit. Making your own will save you lots of money, but it can be a bit complicated if you don't know what you're doing. After the engine is getting a nice boost of incoming air, free up the exhaust with a cat-back system.

                          yeah, it basically frees up the carbon buildup and anything else that is robbing your engine of power, gets it out of the engine and gets you your gas milage/power back.

                            you have a low milage car so I wouldnt worry about seafoaming.
