I have read most of the threads from DIY to other threads about parts. I want to keep my car NA so on a budget of 1500 what are the best mods I can do to get that extra power and speed?
I'm not very well versed in the motor and tranny area that is the reason for the noob question. if you feel like flamming it's a waist of time as I already know.

$1,500?!?
you can top swap for that much...

yeah I want to keep it naturaly asparated.

for $1500 you can make it a decently "quick" car, but by no means will it be fast. you can max out an l36/l26 setup for about that much money.
however, if you dont know how to work on cars im not sure how youre going to achieve this.

All the normal first mods (intake, t-stat, etc.), then get a cam and an HV3.

GT1 cam
HV3
Plog
tune
That would be a starting list for me.

thanks for the info.
as far as how I'm gong to achieve it. well my father in law just moved down south and he has been motor head for 40+ years so with some time I think we will be able to handle it. the car is nto a daily driver just a weekend fun car

You have a Grand Prix as your weekend fun car? Either turbo it, or sell it for something that you can really label as a "weekend fun car."Originally Posted by jasonball

Read my thread in the General Tech section...
Intake of some sort
180* T-Stat
Autolite 605 Spark Plugs
HV3 Upper Insert
PLOG
3" Downpipe
ER Rockers or a GT1 Cam
Custom Tuned PCM
TransGo Shift Kit
GTP Injectors
GTP Throttle Body
Those would make for a nice 14 second car if driven right...maybe even 13's on slicks.

yeah fun weekend car. I built it for car shows. but want just alittle bit more power.You have a Grand Prix as your weekend fun car? Either turbo it, or sell it for something that you can really label as a "weekend fun car."
I already have 2 daily drivers.

Exactly. Or 12s with Nitrus
10-07-2009
Nitrous is for babies...use the mod list I gave if you are wanting a good N/A setup...or turbo the bish and grow some balls if it ain't your DD

Agreed, but that's that's the only way to get a GT lower than high 12s without some sort of boost.
