tgpguy21 Posted April 3, 2005 Report Posted April 3, 2005 So i went and picked up the gtp yesterday. This thing is clean, its got all of the options (and they work). thats a first for me. So now i just have to start slowly modding, im thinking of a 3.4" Pulley and a CAI first. Then a ram air hood, clear corners, different taillights. Well thats all i wanted to say, let me know if any of you are selling these things also. oh i guess ima have to change my name to huh? Quote
5speedz34 Posted April 3, 2005 Report Posted April 3, 2005 I would check out ClubGP there all into the 97+ GP's. Quote
GTPrix Posted April 3, 2005 Report Posted April 3, 2005 Congrats! Just FYI, your not gonna be able to get a 3.4 " pulley until you do some other supporting mods first, i.e. : CAI, u-bend delete, colder plugs, 180 t-stat, and most likely some other exhaust mods (PEM's, 3" downpipe). Then think about the pulley. If not, you will be getting some serious KR (knock retard) and not only will your car be slower, but sned a piston through your hood! But, go to clubgp, there is plenty of reading over there to learn about all of this. Drew Quote

sl3196 Posted April 3, 2005 Report Posted April 3, 2005 Congrats! Just FYI, your not gonna be able to get a 3.4 " pulley until you do some other supporting mods first, i.e. : CAI, u-bend delete, colder plugs, 180 t-stat Should be all you need to run a 3.4 pulley. I have the same mods and have 0*kr at the moment. Everycar is different so get it scanned before you mod. (and after) Edit: I guess I forgot about my DHP. Quote
john99gtp Posted April 4, 2005 Report Posted April 4, 2005 yes every car is different with my mods below, im pulling a nice 11* of KR, BUT i have not touched the exhaust. and i only have a 3.5 pulley, so definantly do something with exhaust first congrats, and lets see some pics! Quote
tgpguy21 Posted April 4, 2005 Author Report Posted April 4, 2005 thanks ill post some pics tomorrow. I have to go get the pics developed first. Quote
john99gtp Posted April 4, 2005 Report Posted April 4, 2005 For the LOVE of God what is a U bend? its a nice bend where GM wanted to put the 2nd O2 up and down, so it dips down, hits the O2, then goes back up. and its not a smooth bend either. im sure someones got a pic floating around edit: heres a pic. kinda hard to see just how much it goes down though Quote
Brian P Posted April 4, 2005 Report Posted April 4, 2005 Wow that's some 'tardness! All this time I just thought it was that "minor" curve that the gen-1 W-cars got before the cat. Also what size is the stock downpipe on the GTP's? Looks like 2, 2.25" there but that might not be a GTP exhaust?? Shit now I gotta look under the SE in my driveway for a good laugh. Damn! Quote
Dannymik Posted April 4, 2005 Report Posted April 4, 2005 good luck with the GTP...have fun with the higher octane gas prices! As you've heard from a few people over here, clubgp is out of control with info you'll need for the new ride. Quote
