The 3.7 has massive potential for performance compared to the 4.0. But I do agree, the 4.0 has a much deeper tone that I find more appealing. The 4.0 for the price is a great entry level performance oriented vehicle.

HP is what you brag with but torque is what you feel! The Modbox kit I looked into when I found one for sale locally, honestly don't bother. Looking at maybe 250 at the wheels if lucky. IMO not worth all the money or problems for boost, at that point go ProCharger, but yet again, for the price it is, it's more beneficial just to get a GT. I'd love to do an 8.8 rear end with a posi cuz the one wheeler peelers are kinda whack with a nice set of 4.10s for when I go to the drag. the issue is sourcing the axle, and even price. Who knows what the future will tell!

Your lag problem in your automatic you just need get a transmission tune have your shifting points adjusted that is what i did and i got a sprint booster for throttle body response. Now boost options Nitrous Vortech Prochager Turbo rear mount or front mount even single or twin turbos and xcharger xtreme and modbox are all available for the 4.0 I will post a video soon about how to get rid of the delay between auto shifts on an automatic.

2008 4.slow V-6 with manual T-5 hanging off it. Yes, stock it is fast. and it WILL do 60mph in 6 second, and that is out of 2nd gear(no red lining even tho it can, very unhealthy to any engine), at shift 3rd, it will just keep going. Being a long GM owner(71 Buick w/Chevy 350 I installed/same on 76 Buick Lesabre), I have to say, I enjoy the S197. Have no issues with the being a so-called "crowd eater", so I don't get that. This includes storms, and Snow. 0 problems, and I never use traction control, doesn't work anyway. Had it now for 4 years. The only thing that concerns me is the timing chain set up, thats it. And I have considered Modbox after looking into it. Still looking into a few things about it.
@SVTEvan

I guess everyone has their own definition of “fast”, and I certainly wouldn’t consider a 4.0 in near stock form anywhere near that. But it is certainly fun as a daily driver and has enough torque to be enjoyable. The modbox would be sweet!

@@SVTEvan lol, I am just going by the warning sticker in the door jam, looks like a Ford sticker, says 0 to 60 in 6sec. I have a 2008, And it will do it. It's a stick, if you don't watch it, you can red line it. That is the way it came when I got it. What I been looking into on that Modbox, is how other people set their up. Apparently the intake comes out right to air filter, not left to air filter. And I been looking at different ways people had mounted it. Some go from intake right, bend in front of engine, to left air box. Some right to mount in right fender, or next to right side engine. Mounting is going to be important. The throttle body is at the rear of the unit. And I also been looking at vids of problems with using it on our engines. Cause I too use it as a daily driver, rain snow, in all weathers. It's all I got. And If I go this route, I want to know what problems I may have. Like the engine, like I said before, I am not a fan of the timing chain layout. But I can honestly say, it's a very reliable everyday vehicle. The only issue I found so far with the modbox is the belt. I hear after awhile it loosens up. There is a vid up here that a guy ran into it, and made a mount for a extra pulley, and he claims that solved it. I am thinking maybe the use of a larger pully. Oh, you can find a place on the internet that does remanufacture superchargers, Some of these places will even have it for sale. I was looking at two of them before. Like one place on ebay, and another(forgot the name) on the web. Lately I been looking how it gets installed. I need to see how it gets fitted on the intake side of the head. For gasket reasons.

TCS is an option you could add to any trim level. The premium trim level refers more to your interior options. If you have a Pony Pack you got the fog lights in the grille. There was optional performance, handling pack, appearance pack available for these cars. These packs didn't sell well because they weren't advertised well so hardly anyone bought these high end options. Performance pack included: Dual exhaust Cold air intake Short throw shifter Custom tune Handling pack Included: Full suspension Better anti roll bars Better control arms Strut tower brace Appearance pack included: Billet front grille Front chin spoiler Chrome 18" wheels Hood scoop Rear deck blackout Stripes Side door scoops.

Actually with boost it will make similar power to a FBO GT and I do mean that GT needs every bolt on you can buy to make the same power as a boosted 4.0. I've raced plenty of 2.3 Ecoboost, 3.7's and 4.6's. Haven't been beaten by any yet. The 4.6 GT's get walked pretty easy if they're not modded. If they do manage to keep up they're always pretty well modded. And it's been a door to door race with the modded GT's. No I haven't raced any 5.0's yet.
