Just want to see what people are running on their Turbo Buicks/TTAs. Maybe a little description of your build and convertor, and journal or ball bearing.
I'll go first. I have the PT6776S-journal bearing
I have a stock long block, with valve springs, 50# inj, Dutt neck IC, just added alky and upgraded the TE60 to a PT6776S. I put in a Pats 10" 3400 stall. Looking to try to net the low 11's this year if all goes well
 
A -44 here but it's starting to let oil by the intake side so I'll be in the market for a new one soon.
 
TE63(Journal),3200 Pats, 60's, Mafpro, Lots of alcohol:biggrin:, trying to break into the 10's by the end of the season.
 
70mm Dual BB 4" inlet-3" outlet 85 housing, build up is on my sig, plus things i can't even remember
 
Old School T63e,gn1's,206/206 Flat Tappet,art Carr 3200nl/u.adding Alky,tt Alky Chip,car Has Been 11.02@122.25,hoping For High Tens With Tuning.
 
Turbo in my sig, in the 10's on pump gas with no alky and a little 255-60-16 drag radial.:eek:
 
You should have included the exhaust trim in the poll. A GTQ will make more power than anything 70+ thats p-trim (76 trim) even if its a 66. I have a 66 GTQ and a 7276. The 66GTQ has a lot more punch up top. I will also have at minimum a 76 GTS soon.
 
BTW, the TA32 and TA49 were turbo's bigger than stock but smaller/less powerful than the TE44.

So because it wasn't in the poll I didn't vote. :tongue:
 
I run a GTQ 70w/ .85 housing.

I found when I had my stock heads with a three way valve job a 214/214 cam with a PT61 the car ran 11.30's I through on a 6776 Ptrim and it wouldn't go any faster because the heads couldn't flow the air and that was at 28psi. I Ported the heads and Intake still stock plenum and the car went 10.80's w/ the 6776 Ptrim.
 
PT6776RHP with a .63 A/R PTE housing here.

Stock motor with valve springs, timing chain, 60#ers, 340 pump with hot wire kit, adj regulator, volt booster, Kirban plug wires, Made 4 you plug wire seperators, 4" buickgn.com cold air kit & MAF pipe, Turbo Tweak chip, Valve cover breathers, PCV check valve, RJC Power Plate for stock plenum, RJC Mega Cooler front mount IC, 3" Terry Houston DP, 2.5" dual exhaust, Art Carr 9" 3400 stall soon to be installed with new tranny. No times yet with new turbo as it fried the tranny back in Nov.

My goals are low 11's and maintaining streetability. Which should be a no brainer with this combo, possibly faster if I want to push it.
We'll see.

Stock 100K motor with only a double roller timing chain, stock heads & intake, ported stock turbo, IC, and plenum; running a powerplate. Walbro 340 w/ hotwire & Accufab reg, using 009 injectors and a TT chip. AlkyControl as well. Big Mouth aluminum intake and 3" S/S THDP w/ testpipe and Hooker catback. Also a Kirban crossover as well. Stock trans with shift kit and hardened stator, with a stock D5.

So far Ive run a best of 11.98@111 with a 1.64 60'. I should be upgrading to a TE series turbo and a ProTorque 3200-3400 stall, and quite possibly a PTE SLIC as well.
