About this Current Vehicle:

Bought this in 2004 as a business car. Put 100k+ business miles on it with mild modifications to the N/A setup. Over the years I have learned it is much easier to stay out of trouble with "sleepers". So, in 06 I decided to try and turbocharge the buick. Just like the GN, the 3800 S2 seems to respond very well to turbocharging.

It looks just like a grandma's car,...until you step on the gas. Then,..suprise!

Still have not run high boost on street or track yet.

Factory Options:

Leather, Power seats, hmm,..lots of extra heavy metal.

Exterior Modifications:

A couple of small super " 6 " decals to pique curiosity. A few small dents, many scratches and a "AAA" bumper sticker. HA! They never see it coming.

Interior Modifications:

Hidden boost gauge and AFR gauge.

Performance:

Oh my, lets see:

05 L32 block, double rollmaster, custom chain gear chamfer, disabled balance shaft, Cometic HG, L36 Camaro heads (gasket matched-thats it), #130 springs, Ti retainers, 206/206 .540 112 LSA cam, #65 injectors, Walbro 255lph, direct wire walbro, T62-1(.82 A/R), A/A Intercooler, stainless and wrapped log style headers, custom ceramic coated and wrapped crossover, custom ceramic coated and wrapped 2.5 downpipe, 2.5 inch electric cutout, custom 2.5 " cat-back, oversize radiator, lots more stuff

Suspension/Chassis:

Vogtland springs, KYB adjustable struts, GMPP front and rear sway bars, GMPP trailing arms, 03 aluminum cradle, centric rotors, Rota P45F wheels in 17x7.5, Fuzion 255/45/17, M/T ET Street Radials for track

Drivetrain:

4t65 heavily built - Gun drilled 300M input shaft, 4340 output shaft, 4340 pump shaft, hardened 4th clutch shaft, 7 clutches, 1" GMR chain(crosses fingers), tranny cooler, aluminum and finned tranny pan, 3250 stall, more stuff

Electronics:

volt booster, AEM wideband, HP tuners, custom MAF rewire for lots of headroom, alternator direct wire to battery

To-Do List:

tubular lower control arms, electric water pump, more tuning

try to get better than a 1.9 sixty foot.

Awesome Turbo Regal. That's how the factory should have made these. Great 1/4 mile times.
