    Irridium spark plugs last 100k mi and work just as well as copper. Copper is a waste on N/A and only lasts 15k mi. Don't use Platinum.
    Use 195* tstat unless you can thoroughly explain why not; 99.9% don't need a lower temp.

    Does anyone know if the exhaust system from a 2006 Grand Prix GXP will fit a 2001 Grand Prix GTP? Thanks

    maybe from the cat back. but the manifolds are different. and those are different body styles also, so i dont think so, but not 100 %

    The catback is the same from 97-2008.

    My exhaust system starting from the resonator back all needs replacing. I found a seller with a 06 GXP exhaust for sale which is why I asked the question. If anyone can confirm if this will fit that would be great.

    Only info I can find is from magnaflow's website and there is a slight difference between pipe sizes. Assuming stock sizes are the same as magnaflow's sizes, can this switch be done? Anyone know if the angles and shape design is the same between the two?

    06 GP GXP:
    5 x 8 x 14in. Muffler, 4 x 14in. Resonator; 2.5in. Tubing; 3.0in. Polished Stainless Tip; QUAD SPLIT REAR EXIT

    01 GP GTP:
    5 x 8 x 14in. Muffler, 5 x 14in. Resonator; 2.5in. Tubing; 4.0in. Polished Stainless Tip; QUAD SPLIT REAR EXIT

    Haha. No, those numbers aren't stock. All GPs have 2.5" diameter exhaust tubing.
