Anyone know anything about these? Just curious. Someone pointed it out and I'd never heard of them on a Buick before.

Looks like a T4 flange, not going to bolt-up to our cars easily.. Most likely why no one has put it on a Buick before.

You can get a 3 to 4 bolt adapter from Turbonetics and probably from Precision too then its just a matter of a downpipe and external wastegate.

10 years ago putting T4 flanged turbos on these cars was common place. Today maybe not so much. I dont know what the downpipe situation is like these days. Youd have to plumb a wastegate as well but thats not really a big deal if you have someone who can weld and do some minor fabrication around.

If the exducer of the turbine is less than 71mm i could possibly recontour a precision ex housing to work. Id need to have the turbine to do so though.
