So I messed my car up by going forward instead of backward(girls were distracting me) ever since I notice that im ever so slightly tracking to the left, what could I have bent?

Anyway if I put the grand am for the shop for the tracking thing I am also gonna get exhaust and headers or anything else performance wise done, what can I get for some more power? mainly in 2nd gear once my car shifts to second I lose all momentum.

Thanks in advance for the help

Just a curb I was in the parking lot and it had a curb infront(better then another car lol, and I hit it, I don't really care that much about the way its tracking I figure its a 400$> fix. I mainly made this thread for the best way I could get a lil more out of my car, I am not sure if headers are mad for my car and I also want to know how much should a flowmaster 80 series be?





Also, Why I am at it, can I make my 98 GAGT a ram air? I was thinking of taking PVC piping and tunneling air from the lower drivers side opening to my cold air, would that work are there any downsides(I guess rain)

How hard would it be

females have caused many men to crash from the distraction :lol:

for the ram air: not worth the trouble. CAI provides better air flow than the R/a from the 5th gen...

This thread has ADD.

Not sure wtf "tracking" is, unless we're talking about VHS.

If you'd take a moment and search, you'd see lots of discussion on...
Headers not fitting your car
Which mufflers would be recommended
Why a Flowmaster 80 series is not a good fitment on a pre-99 chassis
Why CAI > Ram Air

front end alignment on those cars is anywhere between 50$ and up. I would suggest getting a 4 wheel alignment though *if the car needs* . You won't know til they get it on alignment machine.
