    I am not sure how milzy tunes, but I can tell you it is anything far away from quality. You can think about it like this. You get what you pay for.

      I see, well I was not sure.
      What about the WOT-Tech tunes?
      ________________
      I tried calling my police department about the exhaust but I really did not get a definite answer on the whole exhaust thing....
      What am I missing out on by not having an open exhaust? Is it something night and day or? Something small...

        If you look at their page they are working on them now. I am sure something will work out soon.

          Gotcha, I do not mind waiting.

          Aside from the exhaust, and the tune. Is there anything else that could be done that is reasonable.
          Heads and a cam would be too much work at this point, and headers unless I went turbo are not worth it to me because of my harsh winters-too expensive for good ones that would not rust out and/or melt stuff.

            I can't seem to find any page about a tune, PCM or otherwise for the Grand Am,.

              A good spark plug like an NGK TR55 or TR6 and possibly a cooler t stat are usually my first round of modifications. Thats about it.

                I never bothered with the t-stat it was already replaced when I did the LIM gasket fix. As for the spark plugs? I have the NGK Irridium plugs. They cost about $8 each, but were a massive improvement over what was in the car when i got it.

                  PCM's are not listed forsale yet cause Ben is trying to get their test vehicle finished first which will the tuning guinea pig. Contact him through here or on WOT-TECH site and he may have something for you but I can't say for sure.

                    Honestly you wasted money on the irridium plugs. That is about all you would be looking at then. You may want to check our front and rear mounts and make sure they are ok. I usually like to fill the front and possibly back mounts with a urethane filling. Makes them alot more responsive and hold up.

                      Okay, I can check the mounts. I know at one point and time there was a company selling improved motor mounts.
                      As for the plugs? I got them done last year sometime, I ended up getting the plugs and wires for about $60 so I figured it was a decent deal.

                        Wot tech had some billet side mounts for the engine mount, but they have to be done in batches and have not been around for a while. Good stuff though, but normally not the mount that goes out. I would not buy into the other stuff though. For a DIY guy, just get some urethane from Mcmaster and do it yourself. Save money and learn at the same time.

                          I will look into that.
                          It sounds like it could be something interesting.
                          The car is a 2003, so it could be anyone's guess how worn the mounts are.
