Default Need Suggestions

I'm new and am running a completely stock '96 Monte Carlo LS. It has the 3.1 V6 with 176k miles. I'm just wanting some suggestions on products and which brand I should buy. Thanks!

theres not a whole lot for your year, you will have to make a completely custom intake.

you could do exhaust, maybe just go to dual, most mufflers don't really sound good on the v6's. you could also look into rims, or tint maybe a stereo upgrade

I've already got the audio and tint down with rims on the way. Now that I'm done with that portion of the car, I'm looking to hit on performance.
