| usually the quickest and cheapest way to get more power would be. bored throttle body 70 to 80mm , cold air intake , performance chip , decent set of sparkplugs an leads. :) |

Dear god in heaven, I've said it a hundred times before. The stock VN V6 motor DOES NOT require a larger throttle body, it WILL NOT give you more power.
It doesn't matter if it's 70mm or 80mm. The stock one is more than enough.
It WILL give you a slightly more brisk throttle response at low throttle percentages, but the VN V6 engine even at REDLINE does not max out the standard throttle body.
The standard throttle body will work happily with even mild supercharging. The only time you need to upgrade the throttle body is if you've bored/stroked the engine or you're running moderate to large boost figures, other than that there's NO increase in peak power output. |

hey man depends on your money!
Cam and chip package makes the best diffrence but arround the $1200 mark.
Cheapest thing is a good! pod or even pannel filter.
and the extractorw will get better fuel efficency!
I hav a mate who did the testing for these engines and he said that the originalk extractors are the best size! Especially for wat u have. Mind u i hav a set of extractors on my car!
Cheers |
