Re: Twin turbo lumina

They made a McLaren single turbo Grand prix in 89/90. Only made 3700 of them though and never made a factory turbo Lumina.

That car might be worth checking out as those turbo 3.1L motors can fetch some coin.

As far as I know the only factory turbo Buick is the 3.8L turbo in the Regal T-Type, GN, and GNX.

Re: Twin turbo lumina

These are really comfy ass cars. The only negative thing about them is the lack of cup holders.

Yup, correct.

Then the later year GM's were the Syclone and the Typhoon.

There was an early 90s model grand prix that come turbo from the factory but like said earlier they didn't make too many.
