Start by learning a bit more about your vehicle/engine. For starters you don't have a v6.

4.0l v6 looking at it now

its an inline 6 not v6. the 3.7 engine was a v6.

get a tune up and seafoam the engine. then remove all un needed weight. slap a sticker on the back and boom. doing 0-60 in 10sec

if you dont know the difference between an I6 and a V6 then you have quite some learning to do about engines before you go modding them for more power....

OP you know why a V6 is called a V? Because it's shaped like a V. The inline 6 is called an inline 6, because the six cylinders are in-line. In a straight line.

They're not alike in looks and they're not alike in performance. The inline 6 is much more powerful with low-end torque than any V6. It's also heavier and guzzles more gas because not only is it cast iron, but it has much more gravity resistance since the pistons are straight up and down. V6 engines can be made out of practically any crappy over-sea product, so they're lighter and made for horsepower and they use less gas because being configured in a V has less gravity resistance than going straight up and down.

Big difference.

4.0L Inline 6. It's what you have.

Secondly, don't argue with people trying to help you.
