Message:
what would you guys say is the best in
money/HP
I know all about the more air you get in and out it good. But, from what else i have heard, when doing this on these engines you loose that low end. I was wondering if any one has forged/bored/port polish and of there 3.9s
and how much that cost and what dyno numbers does it produce?
I am just wondering if i should buy all the littler things like intake,exaust,headers,tb,ignition,thermo,iat re-locate. or should i look further into port/polish, bored,forged
could be way off but hey, let me know
cause it seems that everyone here is starten with the little stuff and building which is fine, but i would just like to know

Lets see here: ram air, good exaust and V8 TB all make more HP in a stock engine so......... if you make a stock engine breath and exaust more air/exaust and dont modify the things to support those mods? well you just go figure.
You guys need to use a little common sense here.
Hope this helped. Scott

no hes saying the little things make the big things work better
your can crank stroke and polish all you want but if your engine is breathing through a straw, i mean the stock intake, it wont help as much
