    Here is everything in a nutshell and I'm tired of reading this thread

    1) Take off the 3.4" Pulley
    2) Install a 180* T-Stat, if not done already
    3) Install colder plugs if not done already
    4) Get a Set of headers (they are what they are...you pay more for better fitment and coating materials...and yes a name brand.)
    5) Get a PCM. ZZP = EPIC FAIL, do not go that route. Whoever does their tuning sucks ass. Go with a DHP, or Overkill. You can get a DHP from PFYC.com or 3800performance
    6) Flowmasters = awesome. As long as you keep the resonator they are fine. No performance increases but the stock mufflers are the best muffs perf. wise anywhere.
    7) SLP GTX is the Grand Prix that had a Ram Air Hood, 3.5" Pulley, SLP Catback, and Intake from the factory.

    Hope this clears it all up.

    Whoa dude....you need to get a 3" downpipe before the headers. The stock downpipe has a ubend behind the cat that restricts exhaust flow. If you get headers, some of them come with a downpipe with a cat. But if you dont go headers just yet, make sure you do something about the downpipe. I run a 3.4 with the mods I have with very little knock. I had about 1-2 degree's and the mini afc 2.0 took care of that.

    The reason we say headers is because if you get them after a Downpipe then why waste the money? Just save for the headers and btw...the ones off of Ebay are maybe like $100 more than a ZZP Full 3" DP...just a thought though...

    All Flowmasters do to GTP's is make them sound crappier than they already do.
