This is something that has been thoroughly documented everywhere on the internet. Seriously, there's so much information out there that it's not even worth going into detail about it here. text/html 2020-03-28T16:47:29+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) http://3800wiki.com/doku.php?id=performance:enginemods&rev=1585414049&do=diff Engine Mods Modding Basics Intake Manifolds Headers Valvetrain & Camshafts Heads Porting and Polishing Throttle bodies Oiling & lubrication Rotating Assembly Big Displacement Options text/html 2020-04-29T03:00:26+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) http://3800wiki.com/doku.php?id=performance:forced_induction&rev=1588129226&do=diff Forced Induction The three most common methods of forced induction are: * Supercharging * turbocharging * Nitrous Oxide Turbocharging vs the M90 Supercharger Consider that a stock L67 with an M90 produces 240 horsepower at the crank at 8 psi. A turbocharged L67 without an M90 will produce 300 horsepower at the crank at 8 psi and can consistently reproduce that without as much heatsoak. text/html 2020-05-07T16:11:46+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) http://3800wiki.com/doku.php?id=performance:fueling&rev=1588867906&do=diff Fueling Injectors The stock injectors on a 3800 really are not that great for higher horsepower builds. There is a little bit of headroom with the L67 injectors, but once you start using a turbo or a small supercharger pulley you will start to exceed the capabilities of the stock injectors. text/html 2022-10-19T21:22:37+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) http://3800wiki.com/doku.php?id=performance:ignition&rev=1666214557&do=diff Ignition Mods With the factory PCM options are a bit limited in what can be done for ignition system improvements. Switching to an aftermarket ECU opens up the doors to almost anything you could ever want to do, but this page is just about what can be done using the factory PCM. text/html 2020-04-29T03:52:46+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) http://3800wiki.com/doku.php?id=performance:superchargers&rev=1588132366&do=diff Supercharger Options Factory Superchargers The 3800 came equipped with two different superchargers from the factory. Each supercharger had a few changes over the years to make improvements.

Some of the biggest benefits to turbocharging are: * Nearly negligible power necessary to drive the turbocharger * More efficient than most superchargers
