    I'm wanting to make my GTP faster. My current mods are SSAC Headers, 3 in. DP, No Cat., No Res., K&N CAI, Stage 1 ZZP Throttle body, 3.4", Gatorback Belt, Plugs & Wires, DHP PCM, 5W-30 Synthetic Oil. I want to further mod my gtp and i have no intentions of doing a cam. I plan on doing both rockers and intercooler. I want to go with yella terra 1.95 roller rockers and 105# springs and retainers. For intercooling I am going to go with Stage 2 WBodyStore Intercooler Kit. Which one should i do first? Should i do rockers now or should i save for intercooler then do rockers later? I will also be getting my blower ported and polished and be getting a 75mm Northstar TB Kit from ZZP. when should i do these mods? What should i do and when? Suggestions welcome. Thanks in advance

    Whatever you can find a a good deal on. Either one will work fine without much tuning, but to get your money out of them you should get a tune.

    I plan on getting a tune after which ever one i do. I live about 45 minutes away from PRJ Performance which i hear is a good place to get a tune for our cars. As for the throttle body, i'm not sure yet. Probably will end up selling it.

    Get the rockers...that way when you put the IC you can drop to some stupid small pulley...but with a stage 2 IC and TB and P&P blower like you said...your gonna need injectors to take full advantage of the IC setup IMO.

    I will get the injectors after i get both the intercooler and rockers, just trying to figure out which one to get first. i will probably do the rockers. also what is IMO on the Intercooler Setup?? Also what transmission mods would i need to do to be safe? I cant get a new transmission so just want to upgrade the necessary parts to be safe. Thanks for the help
