not really sure what i want to do with this, not looking for a speed demon just a daily driver with some zip, any tips or advice appreciated. on a side note i have a separate question, i have a k&n intake with the filter for an 02 trans am, the stock intake looks very similar between the two cars, could i put the k&n filter on the 3800, (if i have to do a little bit of "adjusting' then thats fine too) thanks again.

Not to be rude, but the Camaro is an f-body not a j-body. You'll probably get a lot more help on a Camaro forum as opposed to a Cavalier forum.
