**cellurbb** · 09-20-2009

Hello, first off i just bought this 2001, grand prix gt in febuary of this year nice little car stock 200hp, but i have been doing some research, and this is what kind of engine mods and all around mods i have came up with, but my question is how much power/ horespower to supect? Ok, Wizaired cold air induction, ZZP 1.0 PCM, Cat back exhaust SLP, ZZp 10.3mm spark plugs, Msd igition coils, Throttle body high velocity, Hv3 insert kit, hIGH ratio rocker, 180t-stat,colder spark plugs, Zzp poly motor mounts, THROTTLE BODY HEAT SHIELD TO REDUCE KR, WATER PUMP UNDERDRIVE PULEY, (Gmpp sway bars handling etc)

you might want to add to the list plog and downpipe combo, if you plan on staying N/A. I don't really think you need a larger bore throttle body yet. Imo t/b heat shield, msd coils, and underdrive pulley are simply a waste of money, instead think about getting an Intense or trans-go shift kit.

Before I had a similar mod list but, i didn't have a cai, rockers or hv3 and i ran a whopping 15.3 @ 88mph (1/4 mile)

Im not sure what you would put down on a dyno but id guess 190-200 whp, less if its a mustang dyno.

p.s- if you like your motor, you won't buy a zzp pcm. Get an Intense or overkill one

thanks for tha info, but whats wrong with zzp 1-o pcm

**speedemongtp** · 09-21-2009

^ they are known to not be right an mess things up

**cellurbb** · 09-21-2009

So dont go with zzp go with intense or overkill

**speedemongtp** · 09-21-2009

^ exactly or a custom tune which is overall your best option

**cellurbb** · 09-21-2009

**cellurbb** · 09-23-2009

with my setup i have a dp plog hv3 and 180 t stat and ran a 15.4 with stock pcm but if i had to chose id do pcm first and just put a cone filter on the intake tube thats all i did and it works good i just take out my driver side headlight at the track to get cold air hitting it but ya all the heat sheild ported tb are useless on a stock car id save that till u are more modded with all the stuff i have plus rockers and pcm then id do ported tb and as for msd coils its the same as oem ur just paying for a name if u want them it would be just cosmetic they perform same as stock
