Thread: 04' gt n/a ~ tips please

Well I'm basically done cosmetically for the winter, BUT I am looking to do some go fast mods. I'm hopefully getting my PCM Flashed this upcoming week but other than that what would add some power to my car that isn't too expensive.

CAI intake, headers, full catback

What do you mean by headers.

ZZ Performance

No, do not get headers unless you plan to supercharge it later. It will feel like an absolute pig except for during WOT. Those primaries are so large you will get little to no exhaust scavenging with a N/A 3800.

Start with an intake. Then get a DP. If you still want to do more, a Plog is good. After that, go with a TB and HV3. At that point the only thing you have left to do other than supercharge or turbocharge it is ER rockers.

Please Define:

- DP
- Plog
- TB
- HV3

Lol after you define those if anyone has any recommendations for where to purchase these please let me know.

DP - Down Pipe
Plog - Power Log
TB - Throttle Body
HV3 - ZZP HV3 intake insert

If you get that HV3 insert and decide to supercharge it later, isnt that a waste?

That's why I told him to pretty much decide what he wants to do now.

Not getting it supercharged, I'm sure of that one, but if you guys could tell me how much power each of these things would give and how much each costs I can run some figures in my head.

sry didnt see that.

Those mods would make a difference, its prolly going to net realisticly like 5-10hp maybe if that. But u would notice a difference, you will have less KR.

all of these are on www.zzperformance.com

If you did a TB, HV3, ER rockers, DP, and Plog, you'd probably see at least a 20WHP increase. Could be coming up on 200WHP instead of the stock 160WHP. I've known L36s to keep up with stock L67s with those mods.
