Hi, I'm Kayla.

I'm now a recent owner of a '97 red Monte Carlo. I'm a highschool graduate and this is my 3rd car. Not only is it my 3rd car, but one of the oldest cars I've had. I'm looking for any information on how to build her up and make her nice again(: I don't know much about cars myself but I'd like to learn about this car and improve it. For starters...how do I make her louder? With a sorta growl sound, not the cheap, popping sounds?

So you want a V8 sound from a V6?...not possible. To make that V6 allot better sounding....Go with some high flow mufflers if you have duel muff..lol

The search part work's great here!
