New Skool Turbo Regal

Just figured i would register on the site now that i have visited a few times. I know i dont have a GN, but its a buick, and its turbo'd so i figured why not stop it.

Here is a link to a few pics of my car if anybody cares

neat setup you've got there. so did you remove the rotors from the supercharger and just run the turbo? oh this should probably get moved to the lounge btw.

at first i just took out the rotors and ran the turbo, but i just converted it over to the f-body 3800 upper/lower intake manifolds for a more efficient intercooler setup. Seems to work mch better now

Looks real good

That is a good looking car you have there

thanx for the compliments guys

I actually just fragged a piston 3 weeks ago and im getting it back today. Ill only have 36# injectors in it though until my 60#ers arrive so i wont even be able to race oh well, it will allow me time to break it in i guess.

Ill post my dyno #'s and time slips later this month. It will be 11 second time slips too

The 36 pound injectors should give all the power you need for wrong wheel drive, at least until you get it tuned to the max.

On the GN it would give a nice amount of leg room, however on the new 3800's, they seem to want bigger injectors. Before i did the rebuild i was maxing out my 42.5 injectors, and i was only running 16psi Thats why i want the 60's or at least 50#ers. Im gonna put a walbro in soon too, just to make sure the pump wot run out of juice.

I doubt you are out of injector, if you are truely running an alcohol injection system it should add 10 to 15% more fuel on top of maxing out your injectors. Possibly you do not have enough fuel pump. Please explain why 3800's like more injector please. Cool build up.

As for why the newer ones need bigger injectors, i couldnt answer that directly. I just know the gn tend to use a smaller injector and can make more power. I am pretty sure my pump is maxed out, that is why im going to buy a walbro and KB boost-a-pump.

As for the alky, it did help a significant amount at first. Now that i have my IC setup on, it just wants more fuel. Im not turning the alky back on until i get my wideband in, i wanna make sure i dont frag another piston

Have a meet on oct 22nd so that is when ill be at the track next, hope my tranny stays alive for it

Looks like a mean car,

Should get a new 'turbo 6' on the front. It looks home-made and not very attractive.

Nice car still.

How does your fuel pressure regulator work? Our regulators add 1lb of fuel pressure for every lb of boost. Maybe your regulator does not add so mich pressure and that may be why you require bigger injectors??

BTW, nice ride. I used to have a '99 Regal GS with several mods and it was fun.
