Seriously, these GXP's are not meant to be modded like some cars, I wouldn't even open up the engine to do any of that internal crap. Just do a CAI, full exhaust work, tranny build/cooler, and a Overkill tune. Then call it a day.

My 01 GTP had 364whp and 385wtrq, and I got it to that point with seriously like $1500 worth of new and used parts of clubgp.com. If I wanted a fast Grand Prix, I would just buy a cheap 04 GTP and put $3000 into it and go out and stomp most cars on the street.

So in other words, turboing a GXP is stupid unless you just wanted it to be original for car shows or something.

If low 11s is stupid then were all dumbasses. You my friend are a jackass. But I bet you have a fleet of single digit track cars. Please keep your tom foolery to yourself blizzard forums are about facts not your ill advised...opinions.

Calling bullshit on over 350whp for 1500 or less on a s/c 3800. No way in hell.

I'm sorry to doubt the almighty and all powerful blizzard...but I would know. i had a park ave ultra with the same L67. Full compliment of bolton's minus a pulley and it couldn't break out of the 15's. I've seen several grand prix's with more than a couple grand in them fail to break into the 13's.

you know what most GXP owners do to break into the 13's?

Drive.
