I now live in Okinawa Japan. I have seen some insane turbo cars. Skylines, Siliva's, 180s-240's, twin turboed nissian gloria's, twin turbo Aristo's which are a big 4 door car. Plus the supras and rx7's and many more cars. All of these cars have manual transmissions in them that race. Go to my website and check a few vids of them drifting. They put these cars through hell. If all these cars with a small 3. liter and smaller (most have a 2.0 liter or smaller) have manual tranny's then why cant I use one with a much bigger and powerful 3.8? I know you have to have a blowoff valve to keep the boost flowing during the shifts. I also understand the buick is heavy but so are these 4 door cars over here. I plan to swap the 3.8 in my 68 firebird and I want the t56 6 speed tranny. I asked around about the compression of these cars over here in Japan and nobody really knows what they have. I know the compression of the 3.8 is really low. Is that part of the problem?
