newb introduction
hi im matt, im 18 and i have worked on cars since i can remember and right now i want to finally turbo my car it's a 1998 olds intrigue i know it sounds hopeless but those 3800 series II engines love boost (a friend of mine has a gtp and is an active member on gtp world, tho the gtp is supercharged they are they same engine)
anyway if anyone has some suggestions as to size of turbo or how i should do engine management im all ears
also i have been arround and read so don't think i don't know how to use the search button

I can't remember if the L27, L36 or L something or other came supercharged. Mah mamadukes has a 3800II in her park ave. When i found out you could boost those things, i thought long and hard about it and then slapped my self remembering how much of a struggle it was for me to work on that bitch. Replacing the intake manifold and whatnot was cake. It's when i got down to the heater elbow and water pump that i started to swear and throw wrenches.
