An intake is not gonna do a damn thing for your car besides make a sound.
Those S/C'd 3800s are sleepers. A few hundred bucks here and there (exhaust, pulley, intake) and they really go. The Torque they deliver on the low end is insane especially with the low gearing some of them had tall overdrive gave them awesome MPG too.

no replacement for displacement.

kia may have a chance if you gave your engine 2 more pistons.

assuming everything is working properly on the SHO you'll get beat.

hp sells cars, tq wins races.


now if you turbo'd the forte im sure the outcome would be different.
