    I want to make my 2004 pontiac Grand Prix faster. I already have a k & n air intake but I'm limited on money so I can shell out money for a supercharger kit. Is there anything else I can do to make my car faster. I already have a less restrictive exhaust planned.

    Don't waste money on the exhaust.

    There is a thread for topswapping somewhere around here, my search was inconclusive. I just didn't type the exact right keywords apparently. Anybody have a link to that?
