Ok the time has come
My trans am complete w/ engine tranny etc
My firebird is now my new project

I dont want to swap in a v8 b/c of the whole wiring harness. My goal is to rebuild my 2.8 and 700r4.
I wondered if anyone had ever made or has made a turbo set up for a 2.8
Is it possible, does anyone have any info on this.
Thanks
Kelham

 

theres a few shots of mine,pm if ur intrested in buying a kit or need help building ur own

 

No offense, but if you're afraid to swap an existing wiring harness, you don't even want to think about a turbo setup, heh.

As you can see it has been done, and more than a couple times. You will find more info by doing a search.

 

id say bore the engine then go with an intercooled turbo there plenty of room under the hood of the six to drop a big intercooler and run twin turbos easily. The biggest aspect if your afraid of a wiring harness is going to be the boost controller but just bring that part to any ***** shop and it'll be done quick.

good luck and tell me how it goes cuz i wanna do the same thing to my six

 

boring the 2.8 would be more exspensive then just swaping in a 3.1,as far as twin turbos there is no need on the 6,and there isnt as much room as u think there is.(ive been designing a twin setup for the 2.8/3.1 cars),though it can be done,but a single t04e or t61 will make more then enough power.i made 412hp with a t04e on a 3.1.and u can deffinatly fit a pretty large intercooler infront of the radiator
