    Hey guys I'm new here. Just looking to get some more information on Grand Prix. My previous car was a 99 Grand Am GT, Modified intake, exhaust, headers, wheels. Unfortunately I got into a racing accident and totaled it. I now own a 1999 Grand Prix GTP, 3.8L V6, S/C. Completely stock. I have never worked on a GP before so I have no idea where to even start. Some advice would be greatly appreciated. My budget is low right now because of hospital bills, I have parts on order right now, Headers, Intake, Exhaust, and Wheels, other than that where should I start?

    dont buy exhaust, its a waste of good money.

    only buy headers or mufflers (but every sinlge aftermarket muffler for these car sound like ass.)

    You need to buy yourself a car with under 100 HP that weighs at LEAST 2500 lbs.

    I came here for advice not criticism. And for the record it was a street race tournament ran by a local parts store. I can't help it that some asshole in a rice burner felt the need to fishtail me at 90mph

    KEWL.

    If you want to avoid criticism you could have omitted the part about the racing accident.

    Or you could fleshed the event out so we wouldnt criticize you.

    was the road at least shut down?

    Read the link in my sig.

    Since when was street racing sponsored and sanctioned? Pretty sure anything illegal isn't either one of those things.
