I have a bone stock 2003 gtp.. it has the L67 engine, also known as the series 2 3.8L engine
I was either going to do a L32 swap and do a bunch of mods like CAI, Headers, Exhaust, Tstat, Spark plugs or i was going to keep the L67 engine and do a gen v supercharger swap and then do all those modifications.. trying to get some ideas in my head. Money is not a problem... any input or help is well appreciated.
 


you can swap engines, you need a tb adapter for the gen 5 blower to the l67 tb you need to keep. and thats it pretty much.
 
If money is no issue than just take that sad gen 3 supercharger off and turbo it instead.

turbo all day everyday
 
I thought the series 3 puts out more power, is it because of the gen v supercharger or is it little things in the motor?
 


My cousin is talking crap because he has an 88 vette tune port injection and I wanna smoke him, then his brother has a camaro that runs a 12.9 and i want to whoop him too. Any ideas?
 
Where do you live? Send them my way.......

In all seriousness, cam, headers, e85. That'll get you 12's and 300whp +.

Oh and save for a new tranny
 
20 break horsepower overall because of the GEN V.

Sure a few of the internal parts like the pistons and rods are made of better quality material and made differently but lets behonest here, thats means literally jack **** when it comes to 99% of us out here. The stock bottom end in either motor will handle the same power the same way, they will both fail in likely the exact same way be it a oil problem, spun bearing, hole in the piston or your friend chip will stop by and say wassup holmes.
 


I want to put headers, exhaust, smaller pulley, tstat, CAI, colder spark plugs, a gen v supercharger, zzp 1.0 PCM, not sure about what to do with the throttle body?
 
A ZZP pcm will not be the best route, thats not going to work anyway for what you want.

A custom tune with a wideband is the only way to tune the car safely.
 
I live in northern Ohio and what advantages come from an e85 swap and how do I do the swap, i know nothing about that.
 


Yeah dude e85 is practically 2.xx a gallon race gas. I suggest you search for some of these questions btw because literally hundreds of threads have been made about e85 and some of these other questions you're asking.
