BIG 3.8L SwapOmega_5 04-17-2005, 05:18 AM ok... i was just looking at a great priced L67 (supercharged 3.8L series II) without the blower. Now I know it's no problem to fit this engine in to my '88 beretta, and that it directly bolts up to my G282 5-speed. My problem is that i'm going to put twin turbos (from the DSM) on this engine, and a large intercooler, on this 3.8L instead of the stock blower. I was just wondering on anyone input as to where i should mount these turbos. I was originally thinking, for the back side, mount the turbo behind the steering column, and for the front side, where the battery is (its getting moved else where). I should also mention that i built a custom front clip for the car , and is made specially to hold the intercooler, and other cooling accessories that i may plan to add. This front clip has alot more room up front than the stock bumper did. Anyways... suggestions? Open to any reasonable idea.... k5dan 04-19-2005, 10:21 PM Wow that sounds like it would be a monster! Just glad to hear that the 3.8II will fit a beretta :biggrin: Omega_5 04-20-2005, 09:07 AM yeah, i was suprised to hear that the 3.8LII is a straight drop in too. But i guess it fits better into a Beretta than a Gen2 Cavy. Oh well... berettas aren't performed up enough anyways....lol k5dan 04-20-2005, 04:55 PM I would love to get ahold of a supercharged series 2 in my beretta and go smoke my buddy's 97 gtp, he would flip but he deeserves it being all cocky. Omega_5 04-21-2005, 03:46 AM i was thinking L67 for the longest time, but when it came down to ordering the engine, i had a flash back of seeing a super fast Grand National. That was when i thought to myself, 'damn i need to turbo that engine'....lol. No actually i saw a guy with a single turbo 3.8L Fiero and thought why not go twin turbo. Check it out... very cool www.fierox.com vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
