        www.lmperformance.com has them for pretty much the best price unless you find one used..if you wait a few months you can usually find a used one..everything for the Powerdyne 3.8 kit is made by www.rksport.com except for the head unit (supplied by Powerdyne)

            Thanks for replying, I watd to do something besides nitros. I really hate to start digging around inside the motor. Something add on ya know? Something that's there all the time working. Thanks for any and all advice- Mogobs and dangerous, thanx [img]smile.gif[/img] hey, what about a gm blower? dont they make a 3.8 supercharged something? Or is that more of a hassle, replacing stuff, instead of a bolt on. See ya [img]smile.gif[/img]

              Dont even go down that road. The M90 that is on the GTP's is not an easy system to fit on our cars. Get a powerdyne if you want something easy and fairly hassle free. You dont even have to run oil to the thing. Also there is a Forced Induction section for topics on Turbos and Superchargers, if you search around there you will find plenty of info. My sig has a link to some good info to read as well.

                yeah dont even look at the M90..stick with a powerdyne or turbo..i personally am in favor of the powerdyne because of the simple design/install..but turbos offer some great gains [img]smile.gif[/img]

                  Jessica, just as 12secondV6 asked you, what exactly are you looking to do with your car?

                  I might be able to shoot you some ideas, email me.

                    [img]graemlins/rock.gif[/img] Powerdyne.

                    Yea, check us out over in the FI room. There are a bunch of people who know how to make the powerdyne work real well with our 3800 cars.

                    Suggest:
                    FI FORUM, spend some time reading current posts, etc. Then start doing searches on things you learn about. Also check out the member websites to see what they have done (and how) to their cars.

                    Oh, maybe try going back to DEC 04-Jan05. A few people upgraded to powerdynes. You can read all about it.

                    Good luck. G

                      it'd be 1000000000000000000 times easyer to just swap in the l67(3800 sc2) than convert the l36 to l67 status
                      to use the l67 in the f body, you'll need the put the l36 oil filter adapter on it(or maybe the whole front cover) and take the throttle body off the sc then fab a 90* elbow to point the tb forward, then it should bolt in the hole the l36 used to be

                        umm, no. The biggest problem is getting the intake on the m90 to the front. it would be so far in the back of the engine bay you would need to cut up the firewall. There are some problems with hieght clearance as well. If you really want an M90 on your car check out this thread over on fullthrottlev6 http://www.fullthrottlev6.com/forums...ead.php?t=3683 its got a lot of info on it and is still an active post so you can add your input or ask questions about it there. The powerdyne is so easy i think it could rival nitrous for the easiest power adder to put on.

                          with the tb off the supercharger, there would be plenty of room to make a turn around( and a small hammer can be used to make a'lil room if needed)
                          most peoples train of thought is"if it dosn't bolt right in, it wont work" I've seen people say many time that a 3.4 dohc won't fit in a camaro, but thats not gonna stop me from putting the one I have into my camaro ;)
                          was gonna get a 3.8 fbody when I was looking for a new one, to put a l67 in, but I love my 60* to much(and I got a screaming deal on my black camaro :D )oh well, 'till someone dose it, no one will belive it'll work
