There are 2 or 3 for the W-body FWD 3800 that you might could adapt, but I think that would involve a lot. The FWD is east-west oriented and those kits mount the turbo near what would be the front of your engine. You might check with the Buick TR/GN folks, they might have something that would be fairly easy to work with since their engines are north-south. Good luck.

Thanks for the help. The sts retrofit sounds like it might be the easiest. Now all I need is the money to do it
