hi i just bought a 99 gtp. i dont have much money and i dont know much about modding, . it was bone stock. so i put a 180 thermo on it and an intake. im goin to get cooler plugs. i heard about dropping pulley size. what size should i go to? i dont plan on doin much more other than maybe a pcm and/or exhaust after that. Any info would be greatly appreciated. thank u n god bless!

Use the search option, look for the modding your 3800 sticky.
Dont change the pully until you have proper supporting mods.

to run a a smaller pulley your looking at around 600
all the info is in the saftely modding sticky

READ, READ, READ....ask questions, and learn about your car. Only do a pulley drop once you have the supporting mods.

that thermo is doing absolutely nothing for u by the way.... and dont get colder plugs... yet

read this 20 times.... http://www.grandprixforums.net/f81/s...car-17482.html not tryin to be a smart ass... but seriously read it. these cars are really quite simple to mod once u know the basics... pulley is the LAST thing u wanna get.

Just goto an exhaust shop and have them do it 40 0r 50 bucks. Then save up 225 for some headers(speed daddy off ebay), 50 for a tune (guy on here named reptile), 10 for AL104's (autozone)and 2500 for just in case money (blowing your engine or trans).

Question would it be cheaper to just buy a gtp motor instead of doing a top swap?
06-13-2010
would be alot easier... ive found GTP motors for as low as 500 bucks... u will need engine...wiring harness and pcm. whereas top swap u need alotta ****.. alotta labor...and a good tune to have it run right.
