look for parts for the grand am GT or the grand am 3.4 SE...you'll get a much better list of performance parts for those cars, and they will fit on this car np
nice man i have the same alero my exhaust is just the cat and a universel res now i gotta a quick question if i take the res off and replace it with straight pipe will it be louder or sound like shit i have no muffler on it just a big tip its mean but i want it to scream louder lol any help people?
Well this car has no res on it, just a high flow cat and 2 super 44's Without a res if that's all you have it's probably loud already, probably won't make much a a difference. and will probably rob a little bit of horsepower. I wouldn't do it.
@RedogOnyx ay dude i have a 2000 alero an i was wondering how can i get my car to sound like that. like what type of parts do i have to get in order to sound like yur car. because when i get back from the army i planing to hookup my alero. i like to know if u dnt mind.
the whole reason the 3400 sounds so much better than the 3100 is because it's been bored out, yes it is a bored out 3100..but the boring of the engine has a lot to do with the sound it produces
i have the 2.4l with a straight thru exhaust n alot of work on my engine. im pushing 400hp running 26lbs of boost. u can say my car sounds ricey, but all 4clyinders do, especially the twin cam. but nonetheless i can back up my ricey exhaust
thats a very nice sounding alero. btw that is indeed lifter tap. ive adjusted the rockers on my alero 3400 as much as i could and they still tap like a mother. what seems to help me is mystic 15w40 heavy duty synthetic blend oil.
Actually it's a lifter tap. Very common with the 60* V-6 GM motors. It's annoying as hell, but doesn't cause any problems. Car has almost 105,000 miles, been doing it since it had 20,000
On my alero I did something different. Stock piping off engine, but I installed a Catco converter and removed the resonator. After that is a Super 80 muffler, and with dual tennesse chrome tips.
Just like yours sound similar to a V8 at idle. Flowmaster has a nice muscle car sound.
I have an Alero that has just about the mods you have on yours. I would like to take her to Englishtown and see how she can do. When's the best night to go to E-town?
Your Alero sounds and moves out well. It's great to show others that Aleros are more than they appear to be.
Best bet is to go to Englishtown on "Street Wars" day. Perfect for a beginner. It's imports v domestics. If you want more of a challege, go there on any Sunday that is listed as "Sunoco Super Points Series" day, these are only on SUnday and get there early
Very nice. I have just about the same mods you do. Where did you run a 14.5 at? I'm living in NY for the next year and I want to test her out. I know about Englishtown. Were you at low elevation when you went to the drags?
I ran the 14.5 at Atco, don't know the elevation there, but there are a ton of trees around the 1/8 mile mark all the way down. People think that is why Atco is a faster track
Very nice! I love the 60 degree gm v6's. Most reliable engines I've ever owned and they sound great for not being v8's. I love the sound of your car.

If you do a FULL exhaust, sure.
Stay away from "straight thru" mufflers or your car will sound rice

sounds like you have a little piston knock or is it just the exhaust?

where did you get the headers from, also is that with a cat? Plus i'm guessing it starts out as single and goes into dual exhaust?

The Mufflers and "Y" pipe I got from Summit racing and the piping was custom bent at the exhaust shop, any muffler shop can do this work
