It is not a cheap option at all, but you could go the turbo route. I got mine from CARTUNING.CA and I love it. The only hard part about that is the price. I planned for 6 months before I was able to get mine, but I couldn't be happier. The people here are very friendly and knowledgeable. They should be able to help you as you need it. Good luck with your mods.

I already ordered the jet maf sensor and stage 2 chip...they dont work at all, i can send the stuff back when i receive it..im not trying to get extreme gains i still want it to be a daily driver, but comfortably in the 13's

What part of O-H are you coming from? I'm originally from Grove City. Heading North into Columbus on I-71 I lived on the exit right before 270.

Yeah, to get into the 13's with the least amount of money spent is going to be tough for you. You have the V8 model and there really hasn't been a demand for mods for them. Your best bet would be a custom turbo setup but realistically the 06 on up just doesn't have anything out there.
You may be able to sneak it there though by putting in a K&N drop in filter, port the exhaust manifolds a slight bit but more importantly polish the inside to make the exhaust slide out easier. Take off the heads and just polish them to remove anything rough but get them milled down to raise compression and get yourself a custom tune from a dyno shop. This would be the cheapest way but I have no idea if it would get you to the 13's.

I know i used to own a 97 grand prix gtp and there was all kinds of mods and i figured with a v8, it would be a bigger base,with the same amount of mods but i was wrong.I found some mods but i wasnt to sure how they would turn out.Ill guess ill have to find a track here in cali and run it and see what i get..

Well... You could remove the DOD and put on a FAST intake manifold. Along with the head work suggested by '04 Intimidator'. The intake manifold on your LS4 is the most restrictive part of your engine. Also, I will look tomorrow at work, there is a company that has developed "shorty headers" for our engine. I have the same car as you and I drive mine to work everyday. I have the CARTUNING.CA turbo that I mentioned earlier and it is a completely street legal/tame setup that has allowed me to DESTROY every car that I have come up against. (Except a Cobra that ran 6.3 in the 1/8th) A custom dyno tune is a MUST for you to get the most out of the car. I HIGHLY recommend the turbo though. http://cartuning.ca/products/product...rlo&engine=ls4 Good luck and happy killing!
