This put the car at 283hp at the wheel and 324tourqe...What are some simple things I can do to get more power...Im hungry for the extra power and thanks for reading...

If your looking for budget friendly bolt ons look into some pacesetter or tsp long tube headers, off road y or catted y pipe, cat back exhaust, descreen your MAF(easy do it yourself mod that will give you more airflow) , slp or ftp air lid/air filter and possibly a ls6 intake. Those mods right there will net you a descent gain and give the car a lot stronger sound and feel.

When I first joined the site I was in the same boat and by just reading up on here quite a bit for the past couple years I've learned so much stuff. A lot of people are very quick to respond and will help ya out on questions but some will be dicks and tell ya to constantly use the search button.lol well good luck with your car and your power goals. If ya have anymore questions let me know.

Bolt-on's, as mentioned, full exhaust. Gears, cam, tune are all budget friendly "big" hp gains. Check out the newbie tech for some more info. Good luck, modding is addicting. Have fun!
