My plan is a solid 11.00 reliable street car, that i can go anywhere with the kids and have some fun at the track. I just bought the car from the original owner with a hurt motor (thats where the fresh build comes in) oil sprayed yearly and never winter driven, pretty well pristine otherwise. its my first buick and i dont know a whole lot about the "do's & donts" if you guys hear of a used stock cooler with necks on them , let me know id really appreciate it.  I may consider the alky  kit for next season .

Is it worthwhile to upgrade a intercooler to a stretched stock location in my situation ? or just keep what i got, and if so when would one need a larger intercooler ?
3.8
cam, ported heads & intake ( cleaned up port match) LT1 springs, ta-49, #50, converter. hot wire, walbro pump
motor is fresh 0 km


PS everything else is one stock, any other recommendation s ?
Thanks guys

Hey everybody, Im new here just wanted to say hi. I was recommended this site from one of the parts supplier. They said people here are very helpful and knowledgeable which would be good as I am a proud owner of my first turbo buick (87 turbo T ..got from original owner)
And dont know too much about the do's & dont's of the turbo buicks.  Millions of questions may soon follow ...
