Is General Motors Preparing To Release a Twin Turbocharged 3.6 V6...?
... and will one of us stuff one into a third gen? 
Buick has decided to bring back the Grand National, and although everyone is arguing back an forth about whether it will be a sedan or coupe, the best part of all is that it will be offered with different engine configurations, and one of them being a 3.6 twin turbocharged engine. The prized GNX version will be getting the new LT1 engine that will be used in the C7, though. Figures Pontiac had to be dropped from the lineup, otherwise we would have seen the return of the TTA too. Damn! Meh, with any luck they will consider stuffing those turbo engines in the V6 Camaro as well. Very exciting time ahead for GM fans, and the race will be on to get one of them jewels into a 3rd gen...

Wouldnt surprise me if they come out with a TT V6. Ford is putting the Ecoboost motors in everything and selling cars because of it. I'm honestly surprised that they haven't put it in the Mustang yet. I'd be more surprised if GM didn't try to match Ford.

In the year 2015 they are "supposidly" adding a eco boost to the stang line up. Id like to see a TT LLT engines in a Camaro to be honest.
