Nobody makes a turbo kit for the 3.8 v6 crowd. Mainly people just build there own kit from the ground up. There quite a few badass v6 out there running great times. There is actually a cammed/spray v6 camaro running 11s which is pretty badass.


Awsome to hear the low 9!

incorrect, Cartuning Performance has an application for the 98-'02 V6 f-bodies which can be purchased through 3800Performance... GTP guys have several vendors to choose from for turbos: ZZPerformance, W-bodystore, and 3800performance off the top of my head...

Incorrect. That cartuning kit isn't out yet. It has been 'coming soon' for a long *** time now.

You can get almost everything you need from Abbott Racing Heads and ZZP

Actually, they sound pretty much nothing alike when you get one next to the other. The GN 3.8 is a 60* motor with just about nothing in common with the 3800II, which is a 90* motor. The GN motors sound better (save a couple of mean *** v6 f-bodies out there)

Force Fed Fabrications had a turbo set up for the 3.8L cars. Not sure if they ever did much with it...i remember Tiago had a kit for his 3.4L from there (if i remember correctly).

Mostly people make custom kits because it's a rather custom set-up they intend to end up with anyhow....like the car in the video.

EDIT: There's a video from their website showing a 3.8L and 3.4L turbo in it.
