    Ok ive been set on getting a new exhaust for a while now, i was gonna get one for myself for x mas but I got laid off. Now im just saving change and waiting till my birthday to help out. Lately though ive been reading about PCMs and im starting to think maybe I should do that instead. The exhaust isnt going to do anything performance wise, and ive been feeling that my grand prix needs that lil something. And the pcms would be cheaper than an exhaust system. Now I dont know much about PCMs so if I do go that route could some one direct me in the way to go. I have GP GT with K&N cai, also they are easyto install right?

    What do you guys think I should do??

    catbacks do nothing for performance, so if anything just buy a different set of mufflers and get them welded on.

    a PCM would get you more gain at this point.

    Hit up over kill or TDC. They are very easy to install.

    TDC and overkill the members?? Im pretty sure another member posted about messaging will-over kill and not getting a response. Ill contact TDC, I hope I dont bother him though, I dont know much about these things and sometimes I feel like a nuisance.

    I contacted TDC waiting for a response.
    just curious if I go the overkill way :: Overkill Motorsports :: I just purchase that email and him tell that I have K&N cai, then he sends me the PCM I put it in and send the old back for a core charge???

    overkill will send you a PCM, then you have to send back your stock one. id assume parker (TDC) would do the same.

    either of those two would probably give you a better tune than ZZP or intense could.
