    You didnt read the Safely Modifying a 3800 thread. http://www.grandprixforums.net/safel...car-17482.html
    All your questions will be answered there, you just need to take the time and read, bro.

    I suggest you read the safely modding your 3800 thread for your other concerns.

    Top swap thread is the one just above this in the naturally aspirated section.
    k cool, yea i was reading that a bit, but i should be ok from the mods i was looking into, only problem is i gotta check to see if my car can handle speeds over 110 lol

    cams are far from impossible.

    Like I said, read safely modding thread.

    By V8 you mean a different car?

    If so, it might be best to leave yours stock as to keep it more reliable and save money for the other vehicle.

    its not about the car handling over 110.

    Its about your incredibly reduced ability to react to dangers in time at those speeds.

    Speed limits aren't so the cops can collect money, they're for safety.

    usrsbro? stop being ignorant and listen to what people are telling you

    EVERYTHING that you COULD do in your budget has already been listed in this thread and in the safely modding thread and there are atleast 5 different NA cams that you could choose from so stop you're whining... starting to wonder if you're going for the 2012 troll of the year award

    Just sayin it is possible to squeeze 260hp out of a N/A there have been people with 205-210whp on stock heads but with every bolt on cam included and even coming close with ER rockers.And if my math is right thats about 260hp.But anyway OP top swap is just basically slapping a GTP's supercharged setup onto your N/A car.It takes some work but can be done and with just headers,intake and tune your at your hp goal already.

    So you probably missed everything you need to READ and LEARN.

    It is obvious you probably didn't even skim it by the questions you keep asking.

    Also, like Matt said...watch that posting style.

    Carry on.

    Look at it this way.

    We give you information.

    Take time out of our day to help ya out...then you just kinda ignore it and keep posting even though your questions were answered. Being a broken record is kinda obnoxious, hence why I took a couple WEEKS out of my own time a few years ago and typed that thread up for people like you who might be new to the GP scene or modding all together. It literally has all the info you NEED to get started...and then you need to just take it further with your own research.

    I think getting 260 HP is maintainable.. The stock 3800 is like 200 HP already, adding a cheap cat back exhaust would add about 10 HP most likely,,followed by a cold air intake, hv3, high flow cat, headers, newer plugs, wires, bigger throttle body, I dunno... You all might disagree
