Id be happy to.... just give me a week or so to get everything together (with my 2 jobs). Hell i'll go ahead and prep and paint my FWI for the Impala, that way I can take pics through-out the whole preping and painting process. Then ill leave it to Scotty and see if he wants to "Sticky" it or what-not lol. I used to powdercoat paint for a living. Its dirty but man its fun and rewarding when its done right!Originally Posted by FuglyGTP

I have an 02 Grand Prix GTP 40th Anniversary.
Would someone please recommend what kit I will need to do this. I want a K&N intake for it. I would perhaps like a housing or "box" for it, but I have two concearns regardin that:
1. I cannot remove a headlight in order to put this in.
2. Somebody told me it would be dangerous to have some of these boxs near all that heat.
Anyone wanna weigh in?

I have one...it's not bad, I have pics if you want me to post them here so you can see.

Make your own. DIY Fenderwell Intake blows the crap ass K&N out of the water. For the price you can almost get a set of headers for god sakes.

meh, if you clean the pipe up it doesnt look terrible. of course, when i save over $150 i could give a sh** less about looks
05-12-2009
yea do your own FWI, i spent like $45 dollars on mine and i think it preforms better than my friends CAI on his grand prix that he spent 250 on!!

Or just get this one from me for 124.99 shipped for a COMPLEATE kit. All you need is a Filter.

mine comes tommorrow cant wait to put it in...if you guys are going FWI get one of TDC's ive tryed HAI Short ram....pvc fwi something tells me this one will be my favorite and dont complain about the bend my friend has a 550 whp cobra and their fwi's bend right before the filter like this one so i know its not restricitve enough to matter maybe if you have a 1000 WHP setup even then still

1) Cobra's are hella easy to make power...intake placement or not
2) No one buys a FWI for a Cobra...they all run OPEN CONE!!
05-13-2009
i see plenty of fwi on cobras... and if there not in fenders there in boxes.

purchased my k&n intake for my 02 gtp. picking it up tomorrow morning. now hopefully my buddy will help me put it on. ill let you all know how it goes.

congratulations, you have now been raped
did you even read this thread?
05-14-2009
That's what I was wondering.
05-14-2009
Wow. Have fun with that crap ass intake system.
05-14-2009
Maybe he got a good deal on the K&N kit.
05-14-2009
Even still it isn't a good intake.

Despite what all the nay-sayers who can't afford the K&N are saying, it absolutely rocks. I was not comfortable putting some crappy PVC or plexiglass in a hot engine compartment.
The K&N is an amazingly snug fit, designed very well. It really opens up that supercharger!
Two things that surprised me:
#1 It fits nicely against the hood of the car, sealing it off from warm engine air.
#2 It is designed to draw directly from the AC unit air since the bottom is open and exposed seemingly only to the AC (touch it and you'll find out it's cold).
The kit is professional, and if you can afford more than some Plumber's PVC junk, then I say go for it.
Don't listen to the haters, I love it, and you won't regret it.
Here's the video that convinced me: YouTube - Grand Prix GTP Whining Supercharger Flyby... among others! It rocks, just get it.

WOW...such a big difference in engine sound
05-14-2009
i can make something comparable to the K&N for $50. you got ripped, let it go.
