Good morning Veeky Forums.
Just bought pic related.
What am I in for with this car?
Got it for 2,700.00 with 112k miles on it.
Engine looks nice, inside looks nice.
I guess it was owned by an old couple before given to the dealership I bought it from.
What mods can I do to it, to get more HP from the SC 3800 engine?
dont do anything unless you want the transmission to blow up
Ausfag here we never got the 3800 in fwd config why is this?
Op put the supercharger Top end on it and a cam
So I guess just a new SC and a pulley system?
you can put an exhaust on it and cut your losses
that car isnt fast by modern standards
it was when it came out like 20 years ago tho
no
tuneup
PCM tune
headers
intake
exhaust
pulley
thermostat
that wont be too much money
by time you start looking into other superchargers and shit youll be in a whole different realm of spending
spending that much on an old buick
dude stop encouraging stupid behavior that money is a down payment on a faster car that could be made even faster
It's his money, he can do with it what he wants
If the pic is the car you bought OP, good pickup, almost got one myself
I hear by just upgrading the pulley on the 3800 SC engine. You can go from 240 to 280, 300.
Is this true?
If so that's up there with my z34.
That's pretty good.
nah
if you just do pulley and nothing else youre not going to be able to go that small of a pulley reliably
maybe 250-260 hp
