intake and a "chip" isn't going to net you 10 horses with the 3400.. unless your stock intake tubing has a family of rodents living inside of it.

if you have the money for an ecotec swap, do it, but keep in mind.. you dont just rip the old engine out and plop the new one in and start driving.. you have all the wiring and shit to redo.

I personally like my 3400, modding it vs a little 4 banger (that'd whip my ass if the same amount of money was put into it) just seems different. Plus I like how my V6 sounds vs a 4 banger lol

aaaand.. there is A LOT of aftermarket redily available for the ecotec. where as the 3400, you gotta hunt around and build your own shit, like for instance if you want to turbocharge it.. you gotta piece together your own turbo system. get your own shit welded and made to fit, custom fabrication.. unless milzy motorsports comes out with a kit lol
