    Even tho i dont have a GTP And just an 02 Grand Prix GT, i think you will need to replace pulleys, and register it into the car computer before you just put it in there. You could get a supercharger off Ebay for as cheap as 60 bucks. lol, but the maintinance is what will kill ya. :\

    You need way more than some pulleys and a tune...

    First of all you need breathing mods and a scanner

    -scanner (this should be your first mod if your going to top swap)
    -Plog or headers (headers would be a better choice)
    -3" downpipe (if your getting headers you don't need this)
    -180* t-stat
    -Intake

    -L32 heads & valve covers
    -L32 LIM
    -L32 supercharger
    -L32 map sensor
    -L32 throttle body
    -L32 fuel rails
    -L32 coil pack bracket
    -L32 harmonic balancer
    -L32 fuel injectors
    -L32 supercharger tensioner pulley/s
    -A really good tune and hope you don't knock to much
    -About $500 in gaskets, bolts and belts (head bolts and rocker bolts are torque to yields)
    -oil and coolant

    I think i covered everything, read the sticky in this section. Its the very first post and covers everything you need to know.
