I CURRENTLEY OWN A 1997 CAMARO RS. WITH A 3.8L V6, 3800 SERIES II ENGINE. CAN YALL PLEASE GIVE ME SOME TIPS ON HOW TO ADD HORSEPOWER? I KNOW THERE ISNT MUCH U CAN DO WITH A V6, BUT IF YOU KNOW ANYTHING PLEASE LET ME KNOW..[/align][/align]THANKS[/align]DOW[/align]

 

Sell it and buy a V8! Or be another riced out camaro.

 

how does getting more HP make it a riced out lol...

i'd go with getting a new exhaust (2.5-3inch) flowmaster, cool air intake, thats what i got on mine and mines fast enuff

 

I have ordered a cool air intake off of ebay, with K&N Filter and already Have Flowmasters Dual Exhuast, 3inch, i was just checkin for anything else

 

Headers, Pulley-set, high-flow cat, a programmer...

 

I <3 my V6....Im not sure why you would bash this engine....its actually a great little engine that provides a nice git up and go.....

i agree with shnormo. Theres nothing like a v8 camaro. You dont necessarily have to sell it. I would just find a project v8 camaro for a few hundred bucks and go from there. Then you have the style of a fourth gen and the power of a v8 camaro. And they are out there. Right now I know where there is an 89 IROC Z with 350 TPI and the guy only wants like 700 bucks for it. I just bought a 79 RS. Now Ive Had a Third Gen, Fourth Gen, and Second Gen.

 

the 3800 series II was on the ward top engines list for 3 years...one of GMs best engines.

theres lots of 6ers that take stock LT1's. Dont get me wrong there's no replacement for a V8, but dont underestimate the 3.8. I dont know how many times i've been asked if I have the LT1 or the LS1. Get Headers, Catback, Hi flow cat, K&N CAI, ignition and some N20...all that will be under 1K and will get you into the mid to low 14's
i just thought i'd add that the 3.8 has more hp than all the 80's maro V8's except the 350 tpi

you said it's an RS? where's the gfx? is it the Y87?

 

everything everybody has said is true however seeing how you through the exclamation point at the end there if ure looking in to spending alot of money get a supercharger this will give like a 50% horsepower boost
