Default New to the board

Just bought a 99 Convertable 3.8 V6.

After driving my Aunts 02, I had to have one.

Mine doesn't seem to have the power of the 02. They both have the same engine. Whats the difference?

I plan to:
add K&N filter
fuel filter
plugs
wires
16" GT wheels
dual exhaust

should I get a computer chip?

This is a very low budget project.

Thanks for the help with the newbie questions.

Default Welcome

Welcome. The verts are somewhat heavier than the coupes. Was your aunt's car a vert? Could make some difference in performance.
