How to improve acceleration

**GTPcompG05** · 03-02-2011

i have a 05 GTP Comp G and i wanted to know what are some ways to improve acceleration or 0 to 60 times

Here's a good start: ZZ Performance

Also, if you haven't replaced your bent rear trailing arms with tubular ones, do that.

Doesn't a bigger throttle body give you faster throttle response?

my car is stock except a KN Intake if i got an intercooler would that add any horsepower or make my car faster

**Bio248** · 03-03-2011

an intercooler alone will not do anything but allow the car to run up to its' full potential in stock form.

**Explicit_Spade** · 03-03-2011

An intercooler would however be a good supporting mod for anything that you do down the line.

**GTPcompG05** · 03-03-2011

so with only an intercooler how far could i drop pulley sizes and be safe

**Bio248** · 03-03-2011

easily a 3.4 pulley. beyond that will require a lot of tuning and paying attention to what youre doing.

do throttle body spacers do anything to help the car ive heard they dont actually add any horsepower or torque but do they at least help gas mileage or help get better air flow or are they worthless

Reading is proven to double your hp gains.

Did all my links to the Safely Modding Thread not work?

**matt5112** · 03-05-2011

you're a big meany.

Moving down in pulley size is the most effective way to increase horsepower. The question is how far down in pulley size can you go for any given amount of mods. I wrote this up a couple years ago. Check it out.
