I have a 3.0L DOHC Duratec Engine(96) without variable valve timing.
I want to get about 50 extra horspower what do I need? I should have enough to do about anything needed, but I don't want to do the nos thing.
I am doing this to make things a little more comfortable and little bit more aggressive not for racing or anything.
I know 50hp is a bit much but I want to know how much I can get and what it will take.

50 hp? Realistically, you'll need two rocket jetpacks on each side of your exhaust. Plus call batman up to see how he gets those flames out of his batmobile, those would add amazing gains

Is the engine already installed? Do you want to add 50hp to a working 3L swap, or do yo umean you have a 2.5L and want to get 50HP from a 3L swap?

Why is that?
I have had a 98 Tuarus with a Duratec that pushed 265hp, I have had a 99 Taurus with a Vulcan that pushed 315hp and a 96 SHO that pushed 380hp.
The problem is the company I bought the Duratec parts from went out of buisness about 7 years ago and I don't want to supercharge it like I did the SHO and SE.
I am wanting luxury not performance.
As for mods, I have done nothing...not even a K&N.

Headers, exhaust, optimization and a tune may get you close.
