New to MCF, ALways looking for good advice
Looking to beef up my 02 Intimidator??? I just installed the K&N intake. Noticed a pretty good difference. Well worth it. Now am looking at a JET power module that I bought and I am thinking about not putting it in. Has anyone got anything to add about this. Is it worth putting in? Has anyone out there tried it and what do you think. Next after thatI want to move onto the exhaust. I am thinking of a dynomax superturbo complete kit. Well that is what I have going on right now. Just wanted to say hi to all my fellow monte owners out there and just wanted to see what all of you had to say. Any other tips of advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone.

Hi Sippy80, & Welcome to the MCF,
Use the MCF Search Engines to explore the subjects that you are interested in : )
I think it would help if we knew your name, & where you are from, but
you can also remain a mystery to the members.
I've just found that people seem more willing to assist others, when they
atleast know their name.
EnJoy the MCF, & your 2002 Monte Carlo Intimidator : )

I wouldn't know why that module is anything to worry about... For one, there's no complicated setup, so obviously they folowed general-use guidelines to enhance the engines.. There not any permenant effect, other than one wire being spliced into which is simple enough to hide.
I mean... I would contact the manufacturer with any specific worries, but it seems ok to me...

This was the best thing i did for my car
also another thing that is small but i think a good idea is get a colder t-stat, stock the car comes with a 195 you can get a 180 from any auto parts store for 10 bucks

Welcome Jake to the Monte Carlo Forum. A SPECIAL welcome to one of our Air Force members. What do you do for the Air Force? I'm hoping you can post a special pic of you and your '02 Intimidator in an interesting German location, something unusual and different.

RE: New to MCF, ALways looking for good advice
Thanks for all of your responses. I appreciate all of you guys support. I will try and answer some of your questions. I do not have pictures of my car yet because my camer is a piece but soon I promise. I have lived in Germany for almost three years now, been deploy a number of times and overall like Germany. I am a Electrical Systems Craftsman. Which means I work on anything with electricity. And I mean anything. It can be a real lot sometimes. Hence the reason why I deploy so much. Germany has been good for me. I am originally from Wisconsin in the states. Thanks again for all your responses. Some more questions for you smart guys out there. I installed the K&N intake and now there is a really nociable whistle from the volume of air going through the intake. Can I install a new valve and would that help and also improve performance?
