Ok i am looking for suggestions on money VS horsepower gain mods. I know nitrous is a huge boost, but this is my DD, 100% street car.I drive a 1994 V6 firebird. All i have is a few little mods, exhaust, thats about it. After 209K miles my baby will still dominate most street cars. So i am currently tearing the engine apart due to an oil leak. figured while im in there i might as well upgrade. So what is the best mod to do without spending TOO much money? give me the part, cost and estimated HP gain. PLEASE

So, you want ONE engine mod that isn't nitrous, that doesn't cost TOO much, that will add hp. How vague.
Get a v8.
Also, your car cannot dominate most street cars.

I just sold my '99 v6 camaro (first car) and upgraded to a trans am
...First, they are right, the v6 is not a fast car. Second, the best "mod" you could do for the money would be to just get a v8.

Tore apart the engine and replaced all wires/plugs/gaskets/lines etcetc. While i was in there i had the intake ported and polished.I have determined i need a V8, but what would be the best deal, a crate engine or just a lightly used engine? and what is the best out there that would work with mine?
