  • How can I make a little bit more spark out of a 2001 V6 Camaro?

    I have a 2001 V6 Camaro automatic. A month ago I change my spark plugs to NGK Iridium IX Spark Plug, and wires to MSD 8.5mm Super Conductor Spark Plug Wire Sets. I would like to get a little bit more spark power if that is possible. I was think of MSD Blaster 2 Ignition Coils, MSD Blaster GM Coils, or MSD Digital-6 Plus CD Ignitions. I'm looking for the less expensive to buy. Also what can I do to put more HP? I already Have
    NGK Iridium IX Spark Plug, MSD 8.5mm Super Conductor Spark Plug Wire Sets, Flowmaster exhaust system, Carsoud Cat, K&N fuel injection kit. I'm not looking to spend a lot of money in to nitrous, or Super charger.

    Thanks.

    13hp for only $54

    right now if you buy two you get 10% more off the total meaning 26hp for ~$100

      your stock oils and such are fine. the 3.8l come with a decent ignition already and your wires and plugs complete it. I wouldn't worry about your spark anymore.

      As for more power, after exhaust and intake, there isn't to much you can do other than gears/lsd which will be around 300. Then you would have to look at more expensive things like nitrous and such after that.

        What type of gears and LSD should I get for my automatic? Also can you tell me how much should I expect the mechanic to charge me for the installation?

        Thanks.

          i went with a z28 rear end swap for mine, cheaper and easier and comes with 3.42s and LSD. My rear end was 300 and swapped it myself. 3.42s are the common gear of choice for autos here that want to keep the gas mileage and yet get up and go pretty good. Cost of a gear install could be pretty expensive, check around.

          Do a search in the drivetrain section for all kinds of info on gears

                      i like the performance, my stock was 3.42s
                      i dont usually ever drive highway, but i drive at highway speeds sometimes
                      If you do drive highway a little bit I would definately get 3.73s instead, unless you dont care

                            make sure if you do decide to just get the whole rear end off a t/a or z28 that it does have 3.42s. some (like mine :( ) came with 2.73s. and you dont want those in a v6.

                            current car- 95 Trans am- bolt ons, parked and collecting dust. why? because **** it

                              ...and you dont want those in a v6 PERIOD!!! unless you plan on driving at 150mph all the time or you have more than 300 rwtq off the line which you dont

                              GM is retarded for making 2.73s stock. Another retarded thing GM did was not put washers between the exhaust manifold bolts and the heat shielding bolts!!! OMFG! I H8 the exhaust manifold heat shielding!!!
