I am probably one of the youngest here. My name is Matt, and i'm 15 years old. I have beena car enthusiust ever since i can remember. My mom recently bought a 1998 Buick Park Avenue Ultra 3.8 litre MFI supercharged V6!! I absolutly LOVE this car! My mom allows me to drive it from time to time.


Anywho, my parents were out today and i had just cleaned the Fuel injecotrs on the car. She told me a could test drive it once only. i said ok, and took the keys. I had read about how much power these cars have...so i decided to prove it. I turned the TC(traction controll) off, and let 'er have it. And not to my suprise the car LEAPED into action, leaving a patch of twin rubbers for 20 or so feet, then grabbing for grip roughly!! LOL! I really give props to GM for supercharging this car with an Eaton M-90 supercharger!! I do have a question, what is the stock boost for the blower on this car? i have herd 9psi, and 11psi. I think 11psi sounds right. Thanks in advance, and i hope you all wont lecture me in good driving?? LOL!

No, unfortunatly i do not.[img]smileys/smiley19.gif[/img] i live in the suburbs of Dayton Ohio. I have a ton of old moped, and motorcycled i tinker with all the time. I just cant keep myself out of trouble with the police. I drive all these bikes(mopeds) around, and forgeting which one's have expired plates i get in trouble. Not to mention i soop these mopeds up. infact, i own the second fastest Tomos Streetmate ever recorded. 51.3mph, and the record is 52mph. i can break that by simply re-gearing LOL!
