Same advice as before.

Two step, simple, easy process:

1. Sell California-legal V-6/manual truck

2. Buy California-legal V-8/automatic truck.

Even if you weren't in Commiefornia, there's nothing you can do to a V-6 that will make adequate power without spending so much money as to be impractical. But trying to make more power with the V-6 AND stay Libtarrd-emissions compliant is hopeless.
