Question new mods?

hi guys i'm here again with more questions. i still have the 97 GTP, i'm wanting to start on some mods and i'm not sure where to start, first thing i know i need to do is the suspension, wheres a good place to start? also is it possible to rebuild a supercharger? i also have the chance to buy a 97 GTP with a 5 speed, is it bogus or for real?

Re: new mods?

Yes you can have a supercharger rebuilt...well as far as i know

the 5 speed you might want to go check out, it is possible to put in a manual tranny but it could only be an aftermarket mod

And as far as suspension if you want to lower it buy a set of lowering springs, and get new struts

if you want horsepower go with a cold air intake, they range from 4-30 on ebay, 170-220 on the net or you can make your own

Theres also a u-bend delete and resinator removal to get a little better exhaust flow

The Eaton M90 Gen3 supercharger can be rebuilt but a total rebuild depending on where it is done can be very expensive. You can get various parts like the coupler, snout seals and bearings and even a complete snout. ZZPerformance has SC parts. If the rebuild quote exceeds $600 then it is more feasible to get a complete new supercharger. See link below:

On the 5 speed GTP???, the best thing to do is look at it because seeing is believing. It sounds bogus but you never know what extremes people will go through to mod and nothing is impossible.
