    I own a 05 grand prix GT and was trying to find out if theres anything i can do to change my limiter of my car which is 110, also was looking for some suggestions on headers and a camshaft for it, finding a camshaft for my model is almost impossible so any help/suggestions would be cool

    Do you have a set budget? Are you looking for a little more ooomff or wanting to see major gains?

    Read the safely modding thread.

    There are links to vendors which sell camshafts for N/A motors.

    The gains aren't that great though.

    A GT1 cam with a uh...intake thingeee in teh UIM and SD headers would tread you pretty nice. Add a set of ER rockers and you'd be happy as heck I assume.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    A super loud exhaust.

    For real, headers, HV3 and tune. Not much you can do to NA.

    You don't even need to do 110. Speed limiters are set in place for peoples safety, not pleasure. If you had tires rated for that speed, sure why not.

    yea i suppose, i just wanted limiter changes cause iv raced alot of ppl that came close to me then my limiter hits and boom loss, like id said before id be happy with even 125 130, and hopefully a tune/chip will change it

    nice, kinda sounds like magnaflow tho, but yea i love the exhaust on my car, it sounds like a monster, i actually have a video of my car but sound quiality isnt good cause it was from a android phone but picture is good, my 2005 pontiac grand prix GT - YouTube

    nothing is wrong like i said before, when i do close races most of the time im ahead a bit then they go by me when my limiter hits, sometimes i do win without the limiter hitting but i just wanna keep up with the ppl that beat me without having to buy a v8 cause i wont be able to afford it till a few years so mine as well mod this one up, besides i really do like this car

    u got the HV3 and headers? when u install them lemme kno man i know how much performance was increased, u gettin a tune too or alrdy got one?
