    should definitely be a fun car, with a few mods I think I can get it into the mid to low 14's

    I agree that modding your DD defeats the purpose of having it.

    When I get a DD it'll be a POS that I dont care about and only gets me from A to B.

    my previous DD was the sister car, a Century. It was pretty beat, but not too bad. I basically stole it at $1000.

    I can sell it for at least $3000. And I just sold my Firebird today.

    To me it's a win-win...I make a small profit and get to have a badass winter car.

    listening to that supercharger whine is AMAZING......this is my first forced induction car and it rocks!

    I think the only mod I would do to an DD, would be tinted windows and maybe a audio system (nothing crazy though). Then at most, if it has a V8, a better exhaust. All my cars had tinted windows, keeps the inside cooler, use the AC less, saved on fuel.

    Nice car! An intake (open cone/CAI/FWI) is a must-have mod for the increased blower whine, 180* t-stat, rotate the motor mount bushings for firmer shifts, and a 3.5" pulley should make a nice difference.

    Good choice. Those cars ride really well and are dependable. Cops will think your are a old retired lady (or me) so you can smoke the weed and blast gangsta shit out the box.

    01 modded gtp

    Nice i got a gtp. You should get a pcm, plog, 3"dp' cai, 180t-stat and autolite 104's. With that setup you should run very low 14's to high 13's

    Excellent financial responsibility modding a daily driver.


    You'll be the coolest kid on the block with your 14 second Buick Regal.
