    Hey guys, does anyone know if i'd be able to take a supercharger from a Buick Park Avenue Ultra and put it in a 2005 Grandprix GT? It's the same engine size and I figure it might be cheaper to get a supercharger out of a Park Avenue then out of and Grandprix GTP. Any ideas and concerns are welcome!

    You have a Series III engine. I don't think the Park Avenue ever had the Series III, so it would be a Series II. That means it has the Gen III M90 instead of the Gen V that came on Series III engines.

    In short, that means more work for you. I don't think anyone has put a Gen III blower on a Series III engine. Usually they go the other way around and put the Gen V on a Series II.

    To make it a halfway easy swap, you should get a Gen V blower from a Series III engine, and read through the sticky in this section on "Top Swaps".
