Re: turbo chargers sure, what kind do you want? there's a range of options for your setup. if i was you, i'd be hunting all over the turbobuicks.com board for a set of headers and a stock GN turbo or upgraded one. then it's injectors, tuning, fuel, motor upgrades.. ect..ect... your in for a trip bud. good luck!
Re: turbo chargers i dont think the turbo buick turbo headers etc. will work with the 3.8 you have in there.
It would be alot easier to do a v8 swap, i know a few that have done it.
By the time your don eith that it would be cheaper and more reliable. and produce the same amount of power
or you could take off the supper charger of a gtp and put one of those on there.

Re: turbo chargers I am not sure if the gn's are the same head layout as the fbody but if they would work that would be a fairly easy way to start to layout pieces. Even if you swapped the headers then redid the crossover somehow. There is so much room up front on a v6 fbody you can fit almost any turbo in there. I would be more worried about getting tuning for the car than anything though. I would start investigating on the GN board and see what will or will not work on your car.

Re: turbo chargers Ill help out. I made a GN header work on my 96 3.8. I had to make new a steel flange for the passenger side header. I then had to make a custom mandrel downpipe, crossoverpipe, etc. You can see some of my rough pics at www.cardomain.com/id/formulao96 Just a word of advice..as you can see I now have an LS1. 2 blown 3.8's and alot of frustration finally made me see that it is not worth turbocharging a 3.8.
