I have a 90' TGP

How is the stock BOV, kinda ricey of me, but i love that "wush" that comes between shifts that i hear at the track... anyone have a part number and price for a decent one that is good?

Fuel injectors, any aftermarket injectors that anyone recommends?

Fuel pumps, aftermarket for this?

Can i use a 160 Hypertech stat on my TGP?

Spark Plugs adn wires... I'd like to get Red to match my car, but that's definitely not a necessity... good brand for these?

Sorry for all the newb questions.... Part numbers would be greatly appreciated!!!

TGPs do not come with BOVs. They are not very helpful with automatic transmissions. If you want to put one on, the best one to get is a BOV off of a GEN 1 DSM (Talon, Laser, Eclipse). And that noise you hear between shifts at the track is because they have a manual car. You'll find that you lose VERY LITTLE boost between shifts with an automatic, as it shifts pretty quick.  :wink: It should really only open when you left off the gas.

Fuel Injectors...stock ones are fine. If you want to upgrade to larger ones, you need a new chip that will support them. It's not ready yet.

Fuel Pump....again, stock one is fine...unless you upgrade to larger injectors.

T-stat....If you're going to get a 160, get one from Jeff M. I think they're only $15.

Plug wires...magnecor seems to be the best wire company with the best wires for any GP.
