Hey all,
Just picked up a pretty clean 2001 GTP Special Edition for my son over the weekend. We've both always liked them, and he has wanted one since he got his license. After wrecking two 5.0 Mustangs and an Integra (that one was not his fault, lol), he's finally go his dream car.
No pics yet as it's been raining since we got it, but it's all black, tinted windows and chrome wheels...loaded up with options, like most Pontiacs. I attached 2 generic photos of the same car though for now...
I'm a car guy and LONGTIME gearhead, but this is my first experience with a supercharged V6. Have had a few very quick/fast supercharged cars in the past (10 second Mustang, 11 second Mustang, etc.), and a few turbo cars (Daytona TurboZ, Turbo Coupe T-Bird), and several nitrous cars, so I am no newbie to power, and I am a mechanic/fleet manager by trade...but very new to this particular car...It is quite impressive for what it is.
It, unfortunately, already has a SERVICE ENGINE SOON light on for low MAF flow. I took it off and cleaned it yesterday, but it came back on soon after.I'm guessing since wiring looks good, the sensor itself is bad?
Anyway, I am sure to be asking some questions, and obviously helping others if I can...look forward to being a site member here.
BTW, I already have HPTuner MPVI Pro, so we "may" be doing some tuning on this thing in the future. Are there any site sponsors or vendors that do either mail order, or email type tunes on here?
