If your in a quest for power first get a tuner, CAI, LT's, get something better than that blowmaster, maybe look at a cam or torque verter.

It varies, look in your glovebox for a sticker that will say. If you don't find it there look at the tag on the rear diff.

If you want answers to more power do a search on this site. There are hundreds of answers to your questions. And then if you still cant find any info then ask for something in particular. That will really help you...

Ha Ha, it won't be long before you won't be able to say that anymore.
Set your goals, do your homework, put your list together, run the list pass the forum if not certain for input, find a shop to work with and buy the parts. No problem it is habit forming. Now, all that extra money is gone.

How much do you have to spend AND can you do the work yourself or know someone who can do it for a case of beer/free/little to no cost? If you want more powwer those are the first two questions you need to ask yourself. Labor on performance based parts will KILL your modding and cut what you wanted to do in half.
