wyomingste Posted January 21, 2006 Report Posted January 21, 2006 I was working on searching web sites for my new motor build when I come across one that shocked the living shit out of me. Not only does this guy have a turbo kit he also has headers for the V-6. This is off a Pontiac Fiero site but the motors are close to the same if not the exact same (except the distributor and of corse the turbo down pipe). Let me know if anyone thinks that this kit would work for the FWD models that we are driving.

TeeJay3800 Posted January 21, 2006 Report Posted January 21, 2006 Looks cool, but those headers aren't really headers, are they? They don't even have equal length primaries. Basically they look like slightly improved stock manifolds. Quote
herb427sc Posted January 21, 2006 Report Posted January 21, 2006 Nice setup for a fiero.. Not much would work on a "W". Quote
wyomingste Posted January 21, 2006 Author Report Posted January 21, 2006 I guess that you could say they aren't headers but i'm sure that they would make some difference. What is the difference between the Fiero and a Grand Prix? Throtle body location Rear wheel drive Weight. Why would it matter if it was made for a Fiero it was built for a 2.8 or 3.1, you might have to modify the downpipe but why wouldn't it work? Quote
Robby1870 Posted January 21, 2006 Report Posted January 21, 2006 Those arent even close to being headers. In fact, they are close to being the stock manifolds. Quote
Supreme Cutlass Posted January 21, 2006 Report Posted January 21, 2006 I wosh I could see what these headers look like http://www.donkeypunchperformance.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=67&products_id=202 Quote

Why would it matter if it was made for a Fiero it was built for a 2.8 or 3.1, you might have to modify the downpipe but why wouldn't it work? Hmmmm....lets see here. Some of the reasons it won't work off the top of my head: The fiero uses an iron head 2.8 meaning exhaust ports won't be the same as a 3100 car, not only that but the rest of the exhaust probably won't mate up to it either. Intake manifold is laid out completely different so you'd have to fab up your own piping and whatnot. The computer is way different so you'd have to do your own computer work. Its also in a completely different platform car, so whos to say there wouldn't be stuff in the way of it if you tried to put it in a w car. Its a nice kit (I've seen nicer ones for Fieros, but that one does come close), but for a w-body I wouldn't waste my time adapting it. Your time would be better spent making your own custom turbo setup, or modifying the TGP one to fit your needs. Just my $.02. Shawn Quote
