I ended up leaving the exhaust pretty much stock, other than putting on the pair of Flowmasters. Will post a video at some point soon for others to see. It sounds pretty good with the 3.6L that GM put in that car.

I am looking for Saab 2.8L High Feature V6 parts, such as the turbo, heads, intake manifold, ECU, and transmission from either a 9-5 or 9-3. I do not have funds currently, but will trade the heads, intake manifold, ECU, and almost brand new transmission in my 2005 Buick LaCrosse CXS (3.6L High...

Aaaaaand... Someone beat us to the parts. Didn't get a chance to go down there with money until yesterday, so we missed out. The turbo and related parts had already been pulled from the Saab. At some point, there WILL be a performance thread for my modifications to Jumba the shitty LaCrosse, but...

I own a 2005 Buick LaCrosse with a 3.6L V6 under the hood, and I have been looking to add a bit of pep to its acceleration. A turbocharged V6 Saab recently rolled into the local junkyard, so since I know they both came from the GM High Feature family, I was curious if A) I could swap the turbo...

Hi y'all! Newish car guy, high school student. Have a 2005 Buick LaCrosse CXS for daily duty, and a 1966 Ford Thunderbird that serves as both project and precision event car. Been looking to modify the LaCrosse to sound and feel more like the Thunderbird, which is the main reason I joined here.
