Default hello intro and my project

hey , im justin , just got ahold of a 1991 oldsmobile toronado torfeo , it has 71,000 miles on it , is fully loaded with the touch screen system , and all working aside from the power antenna motor (works but not 100%)

so "hi" i'll post some pics when i have some time to take them

if anyone knows these engines , i have a few questions about some things i have heard (turbo , exhaust) that i can do with it , its the 3.8l 3800 v6

primarily what size isnt overboard for this engine (turbo)

and if theres much more i can do with the exhaust , it has a nice rumble to it already , and is already dual exhaust , but it just seems really rickety to me and have been considering re-do'ing it all

aside from that i love the car , its got a lot of punch (especially on the highway) and handles very nicely

considering the interior i want to shine everything up and hopefully have it as a show car sometime soon , few repairs on the doors leather lining and the steering wheel has warped a bit (i think from the airbag idk)

Welcome to OF! I don't have any experience with the Toronado, but someone on here will. There is a lot of aftermarket stuff for the 3.8, it's such a common engine you can do anything you want with it.
