Default New GXP

I have a 2008 GXP with 14000 miles on it. On my first visit to the track it ran a 13.9 @ 99 mph.
What are some of the best "cheap" mods I can do?
Could someone explain in detail about the flipped motor mount and the rocker arms, and also if you have some HP tuners files I could look at?

Thanks: Ed

Look at my mod list... Its a great start!

To do the flipped motor mount just remove the dog bone. WD40 around the rubber where it meets the metal, A LOT. then put the bolt through, tighten it up and using your wrench continue to tighten so it causes the rubber block to rotate 90 degrees within the metal mount. This limits from to back movement more that stock, but still allows the engine to vibrate up and down so you don't get the shakes.

Rockers, use the search, there are awesome posts already created about that.

For HP Tuners you will need to go to their site, but you might be able to find someone here that can help you.

Oh, and welcome! Have you considered a calendar entry? DO IT, Monday is the deadline!
