I've had my first car for almost a year now, and I've been reading the basic stuff about cars. cleaning, maintaining, etc. However I want to understand how parts under the hood work to produce more power and maintain it. It'd be really cool if some of you guys can tell me about things such as headers, intercooler, supercharger/turbocharger,headers and the other things that I can install to add more power to my car. I don't have a understanding of how it all works and what these things do yet, its pretty obvious I still don't have a clue what to do yet haha. Also my car is a 98 camaro V6.
