Really? I actually like the look of the "halo's" I am thinking about getting those ones, over the regular Spyder lights... And what do you mean by Cheaper? The CCFL Halo's are about 40 $ more ..

I'm not trying to say don't buy what you want, just know that you should keep your receipts and stock headlights and find out how well they do returns and exchanges.

Im keeping my stock head lights, lol I aint rich enough to replace head lights after a year. dont get me wrong, the halos look nice, but I prefer HIDS with stocks or stock halogen bulbs, which was one of the reasons I fell in love with my MC.

As with any car to increase performance Upgrade Intake (K&N, AEM Cold Air Intakes are fairly easy to install), Exhaust (car breathes better, its happier) also tune-ups (spark plugs and wires my gm mechanic strongly informed me only use AC Delco brand for this) fluid flushes (transmission and coolent) trans flush not recommended for cars with high miles they tend to leak after. Brakes! (dont need $250 rotors with slots and hole, a duralast or valuecraft $35-$70 will do the trick) make sure your able to stop.
Computer chips are garbage, cheep ebay cold air intakes are strongly discouraged.
Basically there is no cheap trick to get a lot of horsepower, the upgrades listed above will increase performance, and when the engine is running smoother mpg tends to improve.
If your trying to turn it into a rocketship turbos, or superchargers will get you there but tear up your engine, trans, etc not recommended for a v6 monte keep it tuned up and running great you get a lot of life outta it my 3.8 has 180,000 on it origional engine and trans (knock on wood)

ANy recomendations on the "BEST" type of spark plug to get?
I see these : >>> PULSTAR® - Chevy Monte Carlo 2007 I-Series™ Iridium Electrode Pulse Plug <<<
But is there a better one that will have increased performance? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

AVOID JET PERFORMANCE LIKE THE HERPES! every car ive seen with on installed ended up with an intake manifold fire.
Here is the link to the Chip I ordered. It will be installed tomorrow. What are your thoughts? (there are 2 products, the one I got is the "Stage 1" Jet Performance Chip Module (PCM) - 910+ Reviews on Jet Chips Stage 2 & 1 Power Control Modules
