Mods where to start

i have a 2009 camry SE V6. i have a SRI and the borla exhaust. first i was wondering how to take the resinator off the exhaust and if there is welding and a llot of work involved.

second, where do i start as moding the enging? what would be my first low end stuff to increase power and torque? i know supercharger or turbos are high end stuff.

There isn't anything. Buy a different car unless you have $4k+ to start with.

Work on your suspension!

Springs/Shocks, sway bar, strut brace, etc!

What is all that power good for without flying through the corners?

I don't know if you are close to Fort Wayne, IN or not. A member with a V6 Camry is needed to test fit some headers. Possible free set of headers to the beta tester.

Why would you want to take the resonator off the exhaust? Anyways, to do that just go to an exhaust shop and have them cut it out, and weld in piping to replace it.

Extend your SRI into a cold air intake for a cheap mod that can help.
