Looks like it's time to put an intake on it

Trevorw24 · 10-26-2011, 04:29 PM

Doug Thorley shorties should do the trick.

Try replacing your air filter. If it's original, 20,000 is way too long to keep it.

Catch can too if you don't have one.

I bet the power is still the same... you have just gotten used to it that's all. Modding will give u that power feeling again...temporarily...then you get used to it again...you do another mod...get used to it again. It never ends.

Fuse pull does nothing for a V6.

Try dropping an LS3 in it.

+1, getting used to the 5th Gen awesomeness. Mod it and fall in love again...

CAI Intake and MRT V2.0 Axle-back will do

From the sounds of it you presume there is something wrong. Maybe take it to a shop and see if you can diagnose it. If nothing is wrong, throw a CAI in there and see if it makes a difference.
