    Ok so this is my second time posting this. But i am going to do a cat back exahust. ported throttle body. cold air induction. i just want a little bit more for right now. not the whole thing. you guys have anything else i can do to my car for a little bit more stuff. I have a 05 grand prix which is the l26 motor if im not mistaken. My buddy also has HP tuners which me and him are going to tune once all of the ice melts off and i can get a decent pull in so we can tune it. But i dont want to spend a **** ton of money right now. just little things. what you guys think?

    Cat back and CAI won't do much. Our stock exhaust isn't very restrictive, so cat backs are more for sound than power. If you want to open up the exhaust, I'd start with a downpipe, then Powerlog or PEM's.

    If you want relatively cheap mods you can feel, downpipe, rockers and a PCM would be a good place to start.

    ^^ ditto.

    you can make an intake for about $50 from PVC too if you want. it would mainly be for sound for you.

    all the blocks are the same, series 3 series 2 same thing. series 3 is stamped as a seres 2 3800. you can do a gen v topswap or topswap a gen 3 on and use the returnless fuel rails. best bang for the buck is the blower.

    You can top swap the same as us Series II guys. Just you have to use Series III parts instead of Series II.
