Hey everyone, I just got a 1998 Grand Prix GT 3.8 and I'm pretty much new to the car and performance parts. In order by cheapness, what can I do to make it faster. I heard putting an air filter is a start, what do you think?

you might start with a CAI/FWI intake..colder T-stat...and also check out some sites like www.zzperformance.com www.Intense-racing.com www.3800performance.com www.grandprixstore.com and www.clubgp.com

Or you can make you own FWI Click Here (http://tacgp.clubgp.com/custom_mods/fenderwell_intake/index.html)

Hope that helps.You said that its a 97/98 you have to relocate the Coolant bottle with a 99 up to the left side of the strut tower if you go with a CAI...........~Larry~
