  • Turbo cam in NA build?

    Well I was building a turbo 3400 for my 96 GP but I recently bought a 85 Fiero 2m4. Needless to say the car is very slow. So I started thinking about putting a 3400 in that instead.

    Anyway how well does a turbo cam work in a NA engine? I know the durations different.
    I might still put my turbo stuff on it later but I'd like to make a nice 225hp NA engine and then throw the turbo stuff on.

    Yes put the 3400 in the Fiero! Why not continue the turbo build but in the different platform?

      A turbo Fiero is bad ass! Being around 2600-2800 lbs versus the 96GP at 3200-3400 lbs. The Fiero will pull like a champ with a turbo v6.

        you're still going to pick up power with a turbo cam, and probably have a little smoother idle than a N/A setup.

          I know someone working on one of those...
