thanks guys. that is a strange place for that but i guess. this is the second pontiac i've owned and i'm still learning the series 2 3800 engine and all the placements of the components in it. first Pontiac being my 75 T/A.

Supercharged is the other option...there was no turbo from the factory since the GBody in the late 80's

supercharged/turbocharged basically the same concept. add more power. supercharged is ok as long as you remember to change the oil in them or have a locked up engine. which is exactly why i didn't get a supercharged grand prix. The 455 in my t/a has plenty power for me.

Changing the blower oil takes like 10 min.
