Greetings /o/, I need some advice.
I've got a 3.5L six in a Pontiac G6 and I want to make it faster.
After some googling, I found cold air intake, high flow exhaust, and a chip would give performance increases.
What else can I do to it to get extra speed?
Inb4 sell it. I have to keep it.

thats all their is short of going FI. start with the cold air and shit. see how far your budget takes you.
but the truth you dont want to hear is that car is a slow car and you should not waste your money on it.
i have a malibu with the same engine and the same transmission as you. same platform too.
dont do it.
i recommend giving it a really good clean, a wax and keeping the maintenance up to date. they are comfy cars.

What's FI?
Can I get even a mild increase with better plugs or something?
Until I can upgrade to a better car, I need all the HP I can get.

>>14769722
I have no illusions about it, i agree its not fast at all. I'm just trying to make the best with what I have at the time.
Should I upgrade brakes or anything else?

Forced Induction. Nos, turbo, whatever the kids are calling it today. And to answer your other question, see >>14769722


As a fun side note you'll also get better gas mileage off of the cold air intake and new exhaust. That's why I put them on my grand am.

Get some decent tires. Don't waste money on engine modifications

Only shitskins and white trash mod an econobox

Don't mod anything. Take all your mod money and save it for a faster car in the future.

>chip
Why do fags say this. With what you fucking fag? No one can tell you if chipping it will help if you won't fucking elaborate. If I chipped your fucking pos with a big rigs ecu, you sure as fuck aren't going to be any faster. Elaborate. Brands, models etc

Niqqa I don't know a fucking thing about chips. If you had any reading comprehension you'd see by my post that I don't know a damn thing about engine work.
If you'd contain your fucking autism and share your apparently extensive knowledge about chipping, maybe I could actually get something done to this pile of shit.

>>14769722
I agree with this anon. I had 2006 g6 gt and at the time there was barely an aftermarket for it. I did lower it and put slotted/vented rotors and ceramic pads. Never got past that because I realized my mistake; this is a economy car and was never meant to be fast. Also it's heavy as shit.

WAMS tune
full exhaust
Crab Intake

your not going to be making it fast but itll be more fun

beyond that maybe a small shot of nitrous
