Ok so I'm a little new to forums nd even more workin on cars but just wanted some advice I have a 03 monte carlo 3.4l, nd I wanted to make her go faster I thought about getting a supercharger. what do you guys think what should I do first and foremost

 

What do think I should do to her I have 3.4l so its not even the ss and Im aware of that but I want to make her faster, and sound meaner, and suggestions? ?

 

Hi 03montemonte, (no name in your profile ),
How many miles on your 3.4L ?

Is everything else in top condition ? (tires/brakes/shocks/tune up/trans serviced/ etc)

What is the condition of your exterior/interior/ ?
How would you rate your Monte on a 1 to 10 as it is now ?

All Chevy engines are good `if they are maintained, but the 3.4L has limited mod's. They can be improved, but my suggestion is that instead of going for a supercharger on a 3.4L > I'd look for a good deal on a SuperCharged 3.8L and try to make a trade/deal ?

Its 100k on the dot I need to change my brake pads soon other then tht insides are like 9 exterior like a high 7 few scratches nd ya I thought bout it jusr don't kno where I should go lookin

 

Finding a supercharger for a 3.4 is going to be quite difficult, there isn't a lot of aftermarket parts for the 3400.

 

My suggestion is to Explore the MCF & you will learn a lot about the Chevy Monte Carlo...

Just pick the thread topic of interest & explore + use our MCF Forum's search engine @ the top center of every page...Type in the topic that you want to explore...

Also, keep checking back on your thread to see what other member's suggest ?

What is your Mod Budget ? How much can you invest in your Monte ?

You have to consider that your Monte is over 10 years old & counting...Turbo's & Supercharger can put more stress on an engine & it should be in top condition b-4 you decide to modify 4-Sure...
Just something to think about.. It's your Monte & your $'s...
Thanks for your reply & Good Luck on getting your Monte the way you want it to `be....Oh, start by getting good Brakes (LOL)

It's fun to go fast, but it's better to be able to Stop also

 

Swap be worth it either?

 

Do you have the knowledge, garage, tools & abilities to do the work yourself ? The professional install can be very expensive...
I think `if you want more power ?, I'd consider selling or trading your Monte for a one with the 3.8L or 3.8L SuperCharged or a 06-07 Monte with a V8 or older model gen Monte with RWD & a V8 ?

It all comes down 2 what you want & what you can afford

 

Most 3400 mods you will find in the N-body community (as that is the biggest factory engine offered to them). There are some things you can do, depends how wide you can open your wallet.
You stand a better chance at turbo charging then supercharging (super chargers for the 3400 are rare, some have done some custom fab work to make one).

On the cheap, I would suggest:
- L67 Coil Packs
- High flow cat
- Cold Air Intake
- Consider upgrading to a dual muffler exhaust (that's basically "show", more then "go")
- Getting a good tune can also help a LOT. Improve shift points and shift pressures, tweaks to the tables controlling your horse power.

If you want to go crazier and have a bigger budget, you may want to consider these guys (they are known more to the 3400 community then the 3800):

Well Im willing to open my wallet *** wide is I need to, but ill prolly get a ss instead so I have a better starting point then where I'm at right now
