just occured to me, can the V6 lumps be turbo'ed? garrett T25's or similar, heard a mate talking about Saab turbo's supposedly fitting the v6  :-? but never know what to believe with him.

if i can do it, how? lol  ;D just wanting to up the performance of my 3L after the manual box n kit has gone on it. or can you suggest other things?

(PS: it already has an M-Tek chip fitted....)

thanks. Rob

There more suited to supercharging, not much room for Turbos....

How about fitting a lower ratio rear diff, get you acceleration up at the expense of top end speed.....

Won't cooling be an issue with forced induction? The V6's tend to get pretty hot as it is.

No, not if done correctly.....

from memory, I believe the Saab V6 is turbo'd, albeit only to a low boost - more to boost low-down torque than power, even this required changes to the engine block. I also seem to remember that supercharger kits were available at about £3k ...
