mods?
1- Boost Valve mod.
2- Engine mount (dog bones) mod. Are these recommended things to do or not? I came across them reading up on modding my car.

Re: mods?
The boost valve mod is worthless but easy to do if you want to give it a try.
I still have the stock engine mounts. Biggest complaints about the aftermarket ones is they can be or get noisy. Save your money for the real performance mods.

Re: mods?
It depends on if they set your boost valve to high from the factory....if you push it down on some L67 it has helped built boost faster..push the valve all the way down and take it for a drive, then pull it all the way up and take it for a drive and you will tell a huge difference in how much faster your boost will build up when you have the valve pushed all the way down..and on the engine mount mod you just turn the rubber mount 90* and it will help with engine movement a little...if you notice there is a gap in the front and back of the rubber mount, by flipping the motor mount 90* the solid top and bottom part of the mount will now become the front and back part now and will help w/ not allowing the engine to move back and forth as much...even if these mods dont help your particular GTP it cant hurt plus its free and only takes 15 minutes to do....
