    I am getting a 5k check for a bonus and wanting to do something major with my 05 Grand Prix GTP, was thinking either intercooler, headers, and smaller pulley or go all out and get a turbo kit. But the more I look into, the harder everything looks to install and I don't know anyone to help me. Is there a place that actually sells our engines turbo charged to buy? Or suped up?

    you could make the 13 hour drive up to Ft. Wayne, Indiana and have TEP install a built transmission first, and maybe sweet talk him into installing a turbo kit. those two things would pretty well eat the whole 5000. or you could look around for a 98-02 Camaro/Firebird. they come from the factory with 300 hp and have a lot more potential than any Grand Prix.

    Buy tylers turbo kit, have brandon hall build you a turbo trans....... I bet you would have plenty of steak dinner money left over.

    Turbo is easy to install and WAY bigger bang than any m90 mod you could do.
