Ok first off, I am not a motor person and LOVE my 98 Fire Bird and she preforms great. But I do want to see her fly alil faster. So I heard I could put a super charger or even ram air on my Bird and put the TA hood on her to allow this. Is this true and does anyone have a way for me to find what the prices are and what I need to do. Or would it be better to have someone else do it. I am just trying to see what I am going to have to spend and how long it will take. Thanks for the help.

I think he just has a plain old V6 Bird...

Do NOT put the WS6 hood on that car or the Phoenix gods will strike you down :nono:

Ok, you're new.... welcome.

If you want to be faster, just buy a v8. It'll be cheaper in the long run.

Supercharger- $5000. 80 hp? It'll almost make you as fast as a stock v8 (trans am).

Ram air hood- $1000 plus paint. 10hp. It's more of a cold air intake, doesn't do much.

Trans Am hood- identical to the firebird hood. You're probably talking about the Trans Am WS6 hood (see above).
