I know we've got some car buff's out there so I thought I would ask. Also, can anyone think of any good tweaks/mods on the GM 3800 Series II V6 engine to boost performance. How about external mods on the Grand Prix itself? Are there any good sites out there that talk about this stuff? Thanks in advance.

I assume you don't have the supercharger version? If not, I think that would be a great thing to do to up performance. Just make sure you do research on what the supercharger needs in terms of cooling and the like.
