I have a friend that is parting out a 1996 Firebird V6 with turbo. I have a 1988 camaro 2.8 V6. Can i take the turbo from his and add it onto mine? If so what all will i need off of his? thanks guys, he is basicly giving it away to me. i got a full set of seats (brand new) for $60. I need to know ASAP. thanks again

 

there is tons of discussion on this topic on the v6 board, however, no one to date has put one in. if your the first then you may be considered a g0d by some v6ers.

 

Well for starters the 1996 firebird didn't come turbo, so assuming it was a one off kit or a 3.8 turbo swap. You'll pretty much need everything. The 2.8 3.0 3.3 3.8 are all related however the are different. From my understanding the headers will not fit on a 2.8. You also have to figure that the kit was designed around the 4th gen engine bay. And may not fit in a third gen.

You'll have to find out a few more pieces of info before anyone can give a complete asessment

 

considering the 3.8 is a 90* motor and the 2.8 is a 60* motor, then yeah, nothing is interchangeable.
