1981: Twin Turbo Regal Power
Did you know Buick almost abandoned V8s entirely in the early 80s? Instead, they offered a lackluster 3.8L V6. Enter performance legend Gale Banks. Remembering his success with Buick’s 1976 Indy Pace Car’s V6, Banks applied his twin-turbo magic to create a monster 439 horsepower engine! While the production models saw one turbo removed, these Buicks became icons of 80s muscle. Still searching for a powerful, head-turning classic? Look no further than the Buick Regal and Grand National!
