Its been a long time since I posted here. Been away from the Buicks for a while now. I have a customer that has a 89 TTA (TA49, ported heads, 206 cam, 42#inj), we recently went through the car and tidied a few things up and to touch up boost and fuel pressure adjustments also recently...

Hello all, It has been awhile since my last post, and unfortunately it has to be in the for sale section, as a new business venture forces the sale of my 1987 Regal Turbo T, I thought that this would be the best place to start. 1987 Buick Regal Turbo T Ex- Conneticut DEA/pursuit...

Hello all, Haven't been around all that much but I pulled the buford out after two years, Installed a New BatBrake trans and here we are today The problem I am having is that I am loosing boost at the top of each gear, (higher rpm) This problem has plagued this car since the day it was put...

I have a fear that the rear in my regal is tweaked. It seems to steer like a monster truck (from the rear). It get worse when you are in the hammer. Has any one else had this problem? Anyone replaced their tubes? Anyone had their tubes straightened? If so let me know who can handle...

books regarding the understanding of compressor maps What are some good books in regards to learning how to read and understand compressor maps?

I think that I may go to an external gate. What have you guys used and to what degree of success. (where are the w/g mounted, what dp, what size w/g [600hp] and any other tips) I thought about a dual port gate, and an innovative controller. I would like to get something with rock...

I have posted this before, I have searched the archives and I have tried everything that I can think of and I still cannot get my car to stabilize the boost. It will almost always give me a 3-4# swing on shifts, usually falling off at the top of gears. ex: leave the line, up to 19 through...

I usually do not do much posting in this forum but I have a few questions for you guys that seem to haunt the area. I am in the process of building a single turbo mustang (I know not a turbo buick, but related none the less). I am shooting for horsepower in the 800 range. I want to goto...

Anyone know where I can find a nice stock location stretch intercooler. I was waiting for a Mease piece but it dosent look too promosing. I need to get one asap.

I was searching around and couldn't find any specifications on the allignment specs for our cars. I have been trying to get to the track and see what I could make happen, but I would like to go through the front end first. I would like to do a 4 wheel just to make sure that the rear is...

I have a few injectors, I am unsure what they are. They have a black body with a red top. Looks alot like a "Ford" injector. The number is stamped right on the body of the injector reads as follows, B 280 707 535/1 V4077. They were purchased on e-bay as a 30#, but would like to...

Is there any update for the Directscan that has some type of boost interface? I need to work on boost control problems and some sort of playback would be cool.

Any one heard anything about Red Armstrongs air meter project? I spoke a little with John and he said that they are showing huge gains with the new meter/chip combo. It has only been tested on vehicles with injectors 55lbs and up. As a side note the chip I just got from them really...

I looked in the archives and can't find anything in regards to an annoying buck at 45mph. I had fixxed one years ago and I cannot remember what it was. The egr is disconnected. At 45 mph after the converter locks you can fell the miss or stumble or buck while cruising. What am I...

I have a feeling that my o2 sensor took a dump. I have a heated unit now, the dealer wants $70 for one, seems like alot. I had thought about going back to a non heated unit, alot cheaper, But won't last quite as long. The local parts store only offers "Standard" or magnavox, no delco...

Does the f/p regulator increase f/p 1# for every pound of boost?

I just got done making a "double pumper" of sorts. I used the atr coupling block and two 307's but I am running both pumps all the time as opposed to staged. I ran a #8 feed to the motor and #6 return. My question, is it normal for the pump to run fuel out the bypass all the time or am I...

I was looking around and it seems that they are very few people running the 53, If you are how does it fair? I have one on my T and was pretty happy with it.

I had thought that I had seen on here that camaro/firebird rear springs can be used in our cars. Is this true? What are the results? I would like to lower the rear of my car 1 1/2 - 2in. And keep it firm. Would that do it?
