Yeah I've been planning for this car, I'm planning on doing the L67 Top Swap later in the future, so I figured I'd go with the 3in, I'm not looking for major power, just more than with my last 3800

Here was my last ride;



It had full intake/exhaust with Pacesetter Headers, sounded amazing.
Never punched it once with headers, two days later it spun a bearing and was knocking hard, had to sell it

I really need a used set of headers for the Monte, $700 and some odd is a little expensive for my taste lol, I figured the true duals would really improve the quality of the sound with the quite turbo mufflers, and the crossover would help hide the rasp, but again its my DD and I'm not sure how to get across the whole "Cannot alter the number of Cat Converters" law.

But any who, thanks for the welcomes and comments guys!

What do you think about wheels?
What should I plan for the exterior, and tip suggestions?

wheels should stay stock until you are happy with performance :P

Welcome to the forum!

As you're already aware, never half-a$$ any of your mods. Take the time to save up and do it right the first time.

Welcome. I would think that a V6 with true dual exhaust would sound horrible. Correct me if I'm wrong. Perhaps it depends on the mufflers used. I'm going with Summit Race mufflers and Magnaflow stainless tips and keeping the rest stock. Hoping for a good turn out.

Nice Monte! Nice color!

Here's a video of a 3800 SII in a Camaro.

True duals with headers, H-pipe crossover, Borla XR-1 mufflers.

Suit yourself.
