Probably because you had a dirty air filter.
You also notice sound.
Lots of it.
Compared to stock.

I meant between different intakes
02-27-2012

headers, intake, then you can put the 3.4 on with a good tune

First mod air intake
2nd headers
3rd pulley drop and tune.

Sometimes... REALLY people just can't help themselves!
It's not about the PULLEY, try doing the headers first and you'll be amazed what that does for the engine.
READ A LOT before you even try to start modding the engine...

Or ask me how I feel about mine. If you are referring him to someone who dislikes them then it's only fair to him to hear about a positive experience.
LOL guys stop telling him wrong. The first mods should be suspension and brakes. Without those power becomes useless.

No beef... I value your opinion greatly, id trust a turbo can tune over a blown tune
02-27-2012
No beef just saying. I had a ZZP canned tune on a previous GTP and it was supercharged. I had a canned intense racing tune on my current GTP when it was supercharged. I also had a canned CT tune on my turbo GP. In the S/C application I enjoyed both the intense and ZZP tune.

Actually my air filter was surprisingly clean, especially for living in a refinery town. I just changed it a few months back. And yeah I agree the sound definitely added a psychological factor to my perceived speed gains. But even taking that into account I noticed a much "smoother" acceleration, kind of the same feeling I got when I installed the headers. Like things were just moving better. Ofcourse nothing was tested, so i could be wrong. So it's up to the individual. I say a good CAI will at best give you some gains and at least make your blower sound like a very whiny monster.

I agree with the first mods, but if I could go back I would get a scangauge first. The pulley should be the icing on the cake though. That's like your reward from the pontiac gods for doing all the hard and "boring" mods first.
02-28-2012
it dosnt matter hw big your cone filter is the engines anly gona take as much air as it needs.
02-28-2012
yeahhh boyyy
02-28-2012
Really? You should put a 1" Dia cone on there and see if that's correct.
