well what do you want to do with it road race,drag race, just add some street fun power?

if you wanna road race then you want to do the suspensiona nd rims and tires.
If you wanna drag race you wanna do a split port swap and add nitrous, blower etc...
if you want street power for crusing and fun just get a used blower and call it a day, maybe add more parts later on.

it all depends there is no oh you have to do this becuase you have this car. Its all up to you and what you wanna do.

don't listen to him, you'll be paying less at the gas pump and a little bit less on the insurance than what he's paying. Six-Gun's have the potential to do ALOT, but it all goes according to if you want to put the money into it. V6's are more economical than the GT's... you gotta be a young guy I'm guessing, stick with the V6 for now and when you're older and have a little bit more cash in the bank get the GT.

Six-Gun's are more looks than they are preformance.. but it's got a good enough push for me.

and on that note, i'd recommend Rims...u can improve the cars handling and stance with a nice set of rims...18x9 in the front and 18x10 in the back u got alota styles to go with, FR500, Bullit, Mach 1, Cobras the wide wheel base will set the car off looks wise and increase handling amazingly... u will also plant more power down which is always a plus,

Then like they said before u can upgrade to a split port and change the engine around to get some serious hp, and some Nitrous for the track...
