Thread: GTP vs. Grand Am GT

Otherwise I vote snail. They have supercharger kits, but you'd still be pulling less than a stock GTP and you'd be paying about 3k for a new 3400 s/c kit.

How do you figure? Tuning and MAYBE some wiring. I've been throwing the idea around for some time now as i've been getting tired of my car and was looking into a GAGT shell to throw my motor in. The way I see it, it'll be roughly the same steps I took to put an L67 into my SE (which was down a whopping 3 days cause I was being lazy).

Tuning and Wiring exactly. A few people pull it off, but those two things are such a ***** with GAs that it typically ends up garbage.

On the other hand, if you can pull it off, then I'll give you a gold star (as I haven't much else to give :P).
