New to GTP, looking for low cost mods

Hi All,

Just bought a used 2004 Grand Prix GT... What are some easy cheap boltons to make the car more fun? I noticed the intakes are expensive. Is it easy to create my own intake? I would like to spend $80 max.... Let me know what I should do first. Thanks!
 




I just thought about this. If your only looking to spend about 80$ on mods... save it and work on routine maintence until you has more ca$h
 


I'm only looking for light mods... I don't plan on keeping this specific GT for a long time( has 143k on it, runs like a champ though) I plan on getting a newer one with less miles on it next year. Maybe even a GXP if I'm lucky! And your right I only want to spend a max of $80 on the intake. I owned a Mustang GT and a SVT Contour before this car. The GP is everything I expected.
 
Run highest octane you can get your hands on.

If you're up on maintenance.... have you done a coolant pressure test lately?

I doubt your LIM gaskets are still holding.

Changed the coolant elbows?

Hows the suspension?

You say new GTP yet you have a GT....

Very different motors.

$80 limit? Save your money.

You'll need it when one of your wheel bearings goes or you hit something and need a new LCA/ knuckle/ axle/tie rod.

Hell thats almost a tank a gas. :D
