Thanks John

Yes you can run a 3.4 with no problem, you should be able to run a 3.4 on a stock GP with no modifications. Having a CAI, new plugs, and larger downpipe only benefit you.

yeah.....have someone scan anyway......id get an exhaust next though..

180 t stat too......

180 t stat too......

This is a good thing to do and its cheap!
Nothing better than the $6 mod!

hey john, did you get auto lite 104's?? if not, those are what you want. gap them around .56 - .58 you are on the right track, the downpipe will help out alot to push the air through, now, get that u-bend removed.

 

[zeez gtp]

oh ya, don't put those 104's in until you get the 3.4 put on.

John-

Why dont you bring some Autolite 104's over when we install your 3.4 pulley? That way we can get all of it done at once. The Autolite 104's are like $1 a piece at Walmart and it you want you can even go to an Autozone and get a 180 thermostat and gasket and we can do that as well. Let me know if you want to tackle this sometime.

Close to what he says...

If your not seeing any KR with the 3.4...

U-bend removed with some exhaust....160* Stock PCM. You may be able to get away with a 3.25". Watch for Knock when the ambient temps go up. You may have to blend a little 100 octane in the summer or go down to the 3.4. Or try the 160 in the summer...Remember. The fan relays work in conjunction with the stat..

If you have a good launch you can get it lower. I had a 3.4 pulley and a drop in K&N and a 60ft of 2.1 I ran a 14.2 @ 95mph I think that is pretty good. Also they are some that can get in the 13's too.

Rich...

How much would you charge to do the same stuff to my 99 GTP? I'm waiting to get the 3.4" until feb., but I've got the 104's sitting here next to me, and will be picking up the 180 stat this weekend.

I'm about 90 minutes south of naperville, so it would be an easy trip up I-55.

Let me know!
