If you don't use "Premium" fuel... the computer won't allow full boost.

depending on the year, some grand prixs were recalled for intake gasket leaks
. this was caused by dex-cool lll eating away at the PVC intake gaskets
between the block and intake mating surfaces. the fix would be a new RUBBER
gasket(intake). keep an eye on coolant fluid level. easy diag. sit at stop
in drive n hit the gas if you see a puff of smoke from tailpipe chances r
good u have a leak.smell the tailpipe while idling in P if it smells like
coolant it is indicative of a leak.hope this helps you!!!
