used with common sense nitrous is fine. A lil 50 shot or a 100 if you have an ODBii program to monitor the engine with first, probably different plugs as well.

Realitically, programming is your best bet. Depending on who you choose for programming you can gain 20-30hp and maybe more for $500-800.

You could take off your heads and have them ported and polished. :D:rofl:

what kind of chips are you talking about, any recommendations because i don't even know which brands are better or where to even start looking... i have the 4.6is exhaust and afe coldair intake on a 3.0

Yeah pretty much. You just pull out your ECU, send it to them, they reflash it and you get it back and put it back in and enjoy :D
