Thread: More power!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Hey ......i own a 2002 GTP i want to add a intercooler to my car but am worried that i dont have all the supporting mods to get the most power i can.



Mods so far:

Downpipe

cat back

3.4 pulley

8.8mm wires

FWI

ported gen III

ported exhaust manifolds

zz pcm



I just baught a stage 3 intercooler with ported llower intake....i know my car needs a tune and was wondering if any other mods need to be done to get the most out of the set up im going to run.....keep in mind head work is next year so no rockers etc....





any help would be more than beneficial

SCAN GUAGE
Tuner
Headers

so if i understand what your sayen.......i get a good tune and bolt my intercooler ....i should be fine? would a MAF sensor help?

You would only need an aftermarket MAF sensor if you would drop to a lower pully. And you would need this because you would be going over the maximum airflow range allowed by the stock one. Then you would need to switch to a LQ4 MAF setup.


You would also need a new MAF table if you would do so. So tuning is required.

so if i wanted to run a 3.25" or lower size in pulley i would need a MAF?

More than likley. Maybe even with a 3.3

if you plan on going much further with the car, invest in a wideband now.

Good advice. And I will recomend the NGK AFX wideband.
