Regal vs Turbo Trans Am

Wonder if adding a turbo cam and couple degrees of timing would help with response. The 8.5:1 and it being an ls6 cam could be robbing some overall response/spool especially after the shifts. If you can do anything to get the cr to something like 9.5:1 that would help and running 93 octane with .875 lambda and low-mid teens for timing would probably aid that turbo can as well. A lot of these things are a bit more hidden on an auto car. Just my 2 cents ![Happy](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_stretch.gif)

stock cams are fine for turbo. there is a hell of a lot of power in the turbo and tuning to worry about a cam.
look man. the intercooler is not a crutch. you need an intercooler that gets you within 10 degrees of ambient.
exactly what intercooler are you using?
have you considered an air to water intercooler. if packaging is a concern that will fix it. you have scratched the surface of power from your existing combo.
that pt76 is capable of 750rwhp on race gas. 700ish on pump. you dont need meth. you need cooler iat's without anything else. you can CO2-spraybar your existing intercooler also, but thats a bandaid.

And as far as the intercooler, I already have an alky control methanol kit on the way, so IAT temp won't be an issue anymore. It's useless to put an expensive intercooler on the car because the bumper has absolutely no airflow, and I refuse to cut it up. The intercooler on the car is just an ebay 4" core unit.

I like how it sounds like a ***** cat with it. Probably the biggest reason I love that cam. Pretty unsuspecting.

I mean what's the point of even DRIVING a Buick Regal, if it won't run down a turbo-3rd gen?
Come on man… You know that's true. It's a REGAL!
