    I have a 2006 Grand Prix gt with the 3.8 supercharger, Im having trouble finding much for it with modding I just see a lot dealing with the 04 and 05 gtp which I think are the same engines? Can I use those same parts? I'm looking to do a pulley change to maybe the 3.4. What kind o supporting mods do I need to do? And what are the best brands?

    3.4? Yup your going to need quite a bit done unless you plan in replacing your motor.


    First and foremost you need something to scan knock with Aka a scan gauge II or aeroforce.

    3.6 is a better start. Headers,intake,tune,180 Tstat.

    A 3.4 will require the about plus something major like a Intercooler or Cam.

    Btw this has been answered so many times please search next time.

    speed daddys would be the wallet friendly choice, but they appear to be out of stock at the moment. 2-250 is about going $, you could look for SSAC headers.
    Just chill and read alot, read the threads everyone are going to tell you to read and do Google searches..all the Grand Prix S/C engines 97-08 have the same basics when you are reading search results.
