Thread: Cheapest way to a low 13's GTP?

What is the cheapest route to take to get mid-low 13's for a 98 GTP?
(Not rigged though, needs to be a reliable DD)

All feed back is appreciated.

But then i'd be buying new pistons.....

to be fast and safe you will need to spend some $$ Here is my suggestion:

-Gen V and North star TB
-Full Size IC with a quality pump and FMHE
-Cam
-L76 springs
-and other little items to keep everything safe, not to mention work for the trans.


-Headers

Correct me if im wrong but i thought Full size IC were well over 1,000$
and isn't a gen v a little below that as well?

Headers, 3.4 pulley, intake, plugs and wideband tune, easy 13's

2000 Grand Prix GTP *15.11* 1/4 Mile - YouTube

I know this doesn't seem right but it made the car slower? 16's

Think 70ish outside with a REAL wideband tune and 13's should be easy if you can drive.

Where you are at on the sea level scale will also determine your times.

So 3.4, sd headers, open cone? , and plugs + tune will give me high 13's?

1. i heard you shouldn't change your plugs since there is only a 1% fail rate, but if you insist which plugs?
2.open cone or fwi?
3.Where do i get a tune specific for my mods on my car? By doing it your self run a big risk of ruining your car/performance?

Iv'e read up a ton on cams for GTP's(3800) and the biggest issue seems to be boost bleed, which one has the best hp/non bleed gain?
