    How much horse power will I receive with These mods:
    -Headers
    -Throttle Body Spacer
    -Colder plugs
    -3.6 supercharger pulley
    -180*
    -CAI
    I know the thermostat won't add horse power but it helps keep the motor cooler resulting in more power.

    Throttlebody spacer is pointless and the thermostat wont help **** without a tune. But ull see a noticable difference with those mods. I also suggest a transgo shiftkit befor you start beating on it.

    Said it in your other thread. You can't tune an 07. Sure you can throw a 06 pcm in, but that way is still janky.

    I see that now.

    Skip the TB spacer, all they do is help coolant to leak.

    As for power gained. Asking that question always cracks me up. Most vendors have an approximate of 20hp for the first pulley drop listed on their sites. Reality is each car is slightly different. Likely 20hp is a fairly fresh motor.

    Serious?

    You already have 2 other thread about pretty much this same topic.

    Having us tell you that the mods you want to run are wrong are clearly NOT sticking in your head. Clearly you have not done any research either, so all of this is going nowhere fast.

    I know the thermostat won't add horse power but it helps keep the motor cooler resulting in more power.
    Does it really? It might just feel that way because it can't take away anything because it doesnt know its knocking.

    Colder air and fuel mixture make more power, not a cold motor.

    Yea I have done research tard. A lot of websites say I need TBS, Headers, Colder plugs, 180*, CAI and I can run a 3.6 pulley. Others say I need 1.9 rockers. But most just say what I already said. Plus my other 2 threads are about 1/4 times, and the other is what mods I need to run a 3.6" pulley. But I did do my research, but I ask ?'s to make sure and get other people's opinions. But still opinions are like Assholes everyone has one.

    I see some of the confusion now, alot of those websites are out-dated, the facts there for the most part are wrong. ZZP's being one of them.

    I read that the Gen V blower that come on the 04+ Grand Prix are less prone to knock. Is that true?
