It's getting really tired. I don't get what the point they're trying to prove is. To be honest I'd love it if they'd just leave us alone... several V8 owners been posting threads trying to stir up sh!t lately

Human nature!.. Have you noticed, there are three or four( which I wont name ), That always show up in those threads? I do my best to calm myself, but im still having issues with blowing flowers up their a**es like I know I should. Some Guys are good at calming a situation, and using words to put things at ease... I use blunt force trama..... sometimes!

I gotta tell you though, having some of them almost chase you down, and then see the look of panic on their face, when it didnt work so well for them, is priceless. My wife keeps telling me to just find the car i want, and make something amazing! She loves our car, but knows it drives me crazy, when those guys rear their heads. I gotta stop spending money on the car, jeep, truck, kids car(cause my oldest boy is just like me ... STOOOpid), and find the right car. Lookin real hard at an old 71z28 and a Nova that is half built. And in a year or so, buying the wife(ya..right) a SS, seeings how ive got her suckered into Camaros now

It always happens when a v6 guy buys an SS, and then posts 5 threads of "look at me!! I UPGRADED"... Then the Vultures come in for the kill.

Im in a Utah Utes thread( cause im from Utah..hello!) ,and every person in there, has nothing but good things to say. No one cares, they just like cars. Thats the way it should be.

I missed all the bashing. PM me the names. I will go stir up some stuff, even send notes to the mods. I no longer put up with their CRAP. Wouldn't be the first time I send a note to a mod telling them to stop, close the thread and ban them.

Ahhh... Its cool. Most of em end up hiding behind the "I'm not bashing the v6" thing, and then just continue to flick their mullets. It's all good brother!

I have a V6 I would gladly upgrade to a V8, but money is an issue. I'm happy with what I have and i'm definitely addicted to speed. Now I just want to make my nice little V6 sound intimidating and run like it to. I'm going to get a exhausted upgrade, and headers. What else can improve the performance though? That isn't a supercharger or something more than 2 grand.

Get a cold air intake you will gain hp and torque and it sounds so good when you hammer down on it, it even makes the exhaust sound deeper.

No supercharger for under two grand.
If you're looking for more power just take a look at the list in my sig line for a few Ideas.

And a NICE list it is too. All of those mods are worth at least an additional 50 HP.

Hope I didn't come off as bragging, (well at least not too much)

I will be selling my ported intake manifold now that I've finished my project.
