hey, i have been pokeing around this site for quite some time now. I just wanted to say hi. haha i own a 2005 grand prix GXP with muffler delete and cold air intake by cold air inductions. BUT i have had numerous tranny problems i am on my second one and it is on its way out now also but the first one was covered by warenty but my local gm dealer witch is also my place of work wile i am still going to school dosent think GM will go for it this time. so we have been working on getting triple edge to send the guts for a BEEFY tranny. i also have a question about the high flow cat downpipe from hogan, about how much horse dose that add??

here is a pic of my car when i first got it

since then i have tinted the back three windows put vent visors on and then the mods i listed above!
and that is my 93 merc topaz in the backround of the picture that i got for 500 bucks by far the toughest car known to man that thing has been to HELL and back! water ran through it twice numerous jumps and i still drove it everyday 22 miles to school! she is still kicking to battery is just dead

Welcome aboard! No clue about the Hogan DP, I'm sure someone will chime in for you though.

Welcome.

The Hogan downpipes are good mods for the money.

I went from 14.2 @ 97-98 to 13.9-14.0 @ 99-100 with the catted. Even quicker with the catless.
