• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

    Any guesses on what I will dyno with S2 Intercooler?

    2005 GTP. I'm installing Stage 2 I/C and ZZP PCM with a scanguage to pave the way for future mods. Just out of curiosity, if my car dynoes around 215whp stock, what can I expect after this, ZZP advertises it as a 50hp bolt on, but I'm sure that is a tuned car and not stock, so maybe half that...

    Shady Car Deal, Ivolves Ex-Girlfriend and a Sneaky Plan

So I'm happily married, got kids now, and...

    Stall Converters and Traction question.

    My old camaro had a 2,500 stall and all I remember was not being able to get traction worth a damn on street tires. That car made around 290 rwhp (zz4 crate 350) and leaving out of even a stop sign was tricky if it was raining lol. I'm just curious if our cars have this issue with traction and...

    Questions about Transmission Cooling, Worth it on stock or wait until mods performed?

    I'm a big fan of trans cooling and have no qualms about putting one in. If heat is the number one killer of automatics then I'm all about cooling. I have heard some talk, however, that the stock 04+ GP trans cooling is sufficient for mildly modded cars, so should I bother on a bone stock 05" GTP...

    Compatibility between FWD and RWD Trans Bolt Patterns

    I have a pipe dream of getting an older RWD grand prix from the 78-87 model year and swapping a GTP motor into one with the computer and fuel injection, to make an old school pimp Grand Prix that has modern technology and decent fuel economy. It would certainly be unique and I'm sure I would be...

    12 Second Ebay GTP

    I found this on ebay today, guy says 400hp and 12.3 second 1/4 mile time. I'm not in a position to question since I'm a newbie and haven't modded these cars so I was just curious if this guy's car sounds capable of the mentioned power and times. In case the add gets pulled or expires, here is...

    Stock 05' GTP 1/8 mile times

    Just curious if my times were the normal for this year car, or if I'm slower than the norm. 05' GTP bone stock. Well maintained and recent tune up at the time, tires in almost new condition. Clarksville TN track is 1/8 mile and no slips printed, unable to calculate anything except ET and MPH...

    Paint Damage from "Love Bugs" in the Deep South

    When I bought my car, the front clip was severely pitted from bug guts left on the car in Louisiana. Anyone from the south can tell you about the love bugs in spring and summer and how the acid in their bodies eats clear coat if you don't clean them off right away. I bought a can of FW1 Detail...

    Looking to Begin Modding 05' GTP

    Hello to all, I've owned my 05' GTP for over 2 years now and have enjoyed many miles of reliable sporty family sedan fun, but I am just itching to begin modding the car to have some fun now that the car is not the daily driver. All I am familiar with is the usual bolt on mods for these cars...
