If I was gonna get a 04 GTP this is how I would mod it in order.

Cold Air Intake.
Complete exhaust headers included.
Rockers 1.9 Intense.
PCM with programming for the rockers.
Intercooler from intense w/spacers and injectors.
SLP MAF w/ adapter and supportive programming in PCM.
Colder plugs and Modular pulley system.

Really the last three would be done mostly together. But with a 3.4 Intense Dyno shows about 280 horse. Just on the virge of blowing the tranny. And with the smaller pulleys you probably would.

Purpose of post = Nothing.

If you're going to spend that much on a GP, why not just get the GXP or a GTO?

I would wait for the GXP also... I know there is a blower kit for the 5.3 trucks right now, so only a matter of time for the kit to be on a GP GXP. But the question is still - will the tranny hold?!?!?!

The tranny will not hold. There is a blower kit for the 5.3 imagine it wouldnt take much for it to work on the ls4 but by by tranny and hello intense.

Ok, I read the article again...it says production will start the first quarter of 2005. But still not too far off.

I think it is great that you can get a V8 in these cars again! The day everyone switch over to V6 was a sad day form me....I understand why...but still sad. Now they are coming back!!!

Only a matter of time before Chevy/Buick jump on the bandwagon.

I would add in a scanner. Maybe even a programmer/ scanner instead of the PCM.

What in 06 or 07 It'll have a new tranny a 6 speed auto I think. I think the early GXPs will have the same tranny backing the caddi Northstars.
