Two words for you. Engine swap. Seriously if you are keeping the V6 you can put headers on it. Program the ECU or just about anything. Whatever you can do to a V-8 you can do to the V-6. It's just a little harder to find parts for them. But they are out there.

Do a search. You will find what you need to know.

Catback exhaust, and some K&N air filters would be a start...
