Thumbs up Keep it serviced & enjoy your journey

^ Hi `Andy & thanks for your reply...Yes, Sadly there aren't that many bolt on performance parts for the 3.4L (Cold Air Induction & Exhaust)...It's a great engine if maintained & is reliable. + Good MPG's...

Wish you good luck with yours...

Welcome Andy, don't under-estimate the 3.4, it is a tough little '6'!
