    Hello,
    I am from the houston area looking for a Turbo T specialist that can help. I recently purchased an 87' T-Type. I am a noobie to the Turbo-T.
    It has a few mods but I want to go further.
    Thanks for any help.

    Welcome aboard! Checkout the Texas forum;
    have you joined the Houston Buick Club? A LOT of very knowledgeable people.
    I'm in west Houston, Spring Branch/ Memorial area
    a bit of a drive, but there are weekly car meets all over...
    Let me know if I can help!

    Thanks.
    I currently have it in the shop. It had been sitting for a while and needed all of the fluids changed. While it is there I purchased some headers and a down pipe from Archie @ GN1 and they are installing them.
    Hopefully I will have it out soon. When it comes out I would like to hook up with you guys to get some direction and check out a few of those car meets.
    Thanks again.

    There's a car meet every Saturday evening in The Fountains. A couple of TRs are always there
    when I swing by every now and then.

    Where are the Fountains? Not familiar with that area.
    Hopefully I will have it back for a weekend cruise.
    Thanks for the help.

    The Fountains are in Sugarland. 59s and Kirkwood exit. Right across from the AMC Lowes
    Theater. It's a pretty cool meet there. Sadly I'm thinking about selling my GN :-(

    Hello,
    That's not far from me. Hopefully I will have my car back for the weekend. If so I will see if some of us can hook up. I need some "schooling" on these cars. Any info will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the info. I will check it out.
    I think you will regret selling that GN....

    That'd be cool. Send me a pm. I'm learning the ins and outs of these cars myself. Had mine since december.
