If your goal is more hp, there are no upgrades that will make an appreciable difference, short of supercharging it.

oh i see ......yes but the supercharger are in the 6-10k$......which is costly...but i do get it......what is my other options?..lol...what about chipping it?....software?....anything within the $5k below?>..

$5k? Buy a motorcycle.

use the 5,000 and put it towards the maintenance and repairs. if you'd like some performance software for the DME and EGS, i can send you a programming package and i can program your vehicle remotely. the package will cost $85 and i will send you the cable and you can keep the cable afterwards. all you need is a high speed internet connection, laptop with 2.0ghz with 2gigs of ram and a stable power supply device.

$5K that is enough for a week worth of gas. LOL actually now that I think about it, that statement is not too far off.

Interesting I got a 2001 4.4i can you do anything for it?

[pnoyako85]

yes with my JOb being a therapist and doing House Call all day everyday....its insane how much this SAV swallows gas ...its like never ending filling up....

@ killcrap.....tell me what benefits will i gain from the programming you are offering....im quite interested on this.....and yes....definitely going to need cooling system upgrade or should i say...will need to replace a few parts from it....some preventative issues before it gets me in the long run.....maybe i should just change the spark plugs to top quality and call it a day...


also..can we update the Side marker to be off when cruising and only tun on when signaling?...can we update the independent shocks to be lowered by 1"?...-and fog light to be turned on when high beams are on?
