I'm sorry if there is already a post about this, I just didn't see it. I am wondering what is the best possible route to go for performance, all the extra little addons and what not/ fuel economy. Or at least to get some better fuel economy. Been doing some research over the last couple of days and simply came up with a few things, but I was wondering if any one on here has done this before, and what problems they faced, and what worked out better, along with tips and what not. The vehicle is a 95 Monte Carlo Z34 3.4L. Any information you have I am sure is helpful. Thank you.

 

Iam sorry more performance, betterfueleconomy. most of the times don't go together it's one or other IDK how you can have great fuel economy and get great performance sorry

 

Cold air intake and catback exhaust is the first place I started. Not much available performance wise for the LQ1.

 

What Is LQ1?

 

The LQ1 (also called the Twin Dual Cam or TDC) was a 3.4 L DOHC V6 motor ("X-code") based on the aluminum headed second generation of GM's 60° engine line,

 

Ah I see thank you.

 

So cold air intake and cat back exhaust ok I found a chip from a local shop around here hybrid chips or hypertech whatever it was. Any ideas?

 

Our cars dont use "Chips". Those cheapy modules = fail as well. If you want the car tuned have someone with a DHP tuner or HP tuners do it the right way. I just had my PCM tuned by a member here (Z34pheonix) and Im real happy with it.

 

Thought you might say something like that. And yeah I have read a few of his posts as well. Although I would like to be able to figure something out for this car.
