quick question

Will a 97 GTP TB work on a 2000 GTP?

A friend needs one but Im not sure if it will work or not. Let me know

[Hippo Machine]

Yes.

[Iceman6669]

I assume it would... My only concern would be the MAF.... I am not sure if they did anything to that as far as changes go...

[Fivefingerdeathpunch]

No.

It wont work.

[limegreen]

No.

It wont work.

So is it YES or NO?

[dpzelenak]

No it wont

[Fivefingerdeathpunch]

Its no.

He needs a 99+ TB

[Logan541]

Nope 97's are a unique animal mnay parts will only work on that year engine wise, or so I am told

[Hippo Machine]

Oops. I smart.

[dpzelenak]

We know

[limegreen]

Ok..So will a 2000 supercharger work on a 97 with the 97 TB?

[Hippo Machine]

Yes.

Thanks everyone

I put an 00 tb on a 97, just had to drill and tap for a vac port. Why can't you just cap the port on a 97 tb for it to work on an 00?

You guys need to explain your answer instead of just no it won't work. People can't research if all they find in other posts is " no that won't work" with no explanation.

You might want secondary confirmation...

What about the vacuum tree of awesome on the 97 blower?

I would think you can bypass that and just go to the boost Solenoid?

Anyone have info on this swap?

2000 supercharger on a 97? What is needed?

I agree with this

Hippo really needs to quit giving car advice and stick to telling the differences between oak and maple leaves.

If you swap the '97 GTP TB on to a '00 car, most likely it'll toss the P0171 vac leak code for improper MAF readings...I had that issue when I tossed a newer L36 TB on my '98 GT. A '97 TB will work on a 97-98 car...and a 99-03 TB will work on a 99-03 car.

Now if you go about porting it you'll still need a MAF tune for the car anyways, in which THEN you could use any TB, especially since you're just hogging it out.
