Default 2004 Monte Carlo LS

What are some ways to make my 2004 monte carlo ls quicker? it is a 3.4L v6. Any ways to increase horsepower or just make faster. I'd prefer simple ways, since i have been working on a ford thunderbird for the past year, but decided that ford sucked and chevy is probably a lot better (only had the monte for a month)

Simple, but not overly expensive:

-Cold Air Induction (Wizaird is best for your car).
-Tuned PCM (you can buy a can tuned one for your car).

exhaust and ubend delete will help, not a ton you can do to any engines on these cars that will be really cheap

Think you need to make some more posts before you can post pics... I think.
Why dont you give us some kind of price range and we can help you out a little more. What I would do is first save up enough to do the intake, downpipe, and PCM. The intake shouldnt be one of those under hood deals, it should really be a real CAI that goes into the bumper or the fenderwell. The downpipe will take care of the ubend and cat which is the restriction of the exhaust. The the PCM will make the most of those two previous mods. After those three posted you get into the more custom/EXPENSIVE stuff.
I made a post a while back entitled "if you have a 3400... HERE!". That gives you most of the things that are available for our engines>
