Hey guys,
I am from Australia and am looking into building a tough but different motor in Australia here. Over here there arent many turbo v6 Buick motors. These motors come out standard on our Holden Commodores.
I am looking at purchasing a Turbo kit that i see on many cars in the US. What company or web page can i visit to get some information on pricing and pictures on these products ??
PS - if you wanna see what my car looks like go here

Not sure what you mean by turbo kit but try Precision Turbo for a start.
I'm sure others will have more ideas! :beerglass

Sorry to say but the 3800 Series II is a completely different animal than our 3.8 turbo engines. Different block, heads, pistons, cranks, etc.

Your best bet would be to get a Supercharger and go that route. If you go turbo it will be all custom.

Also you will need to upgrade your transmission as the stock 3800 tranny begins to poop out at about 250-300hp
