Default Looking to get a supercharged monte carlo

Hello everyone. Looking to get a monte carlo SS or another supercharged V6 GM car. I've found the the monte carlo has the most available in terms of aftermarket products. Can anyone give me advice which to get? Also do any of them come with factory boost gauges? What is the factory PSI on these models?

Grand Prix GTP, Regal GS, SSEi Bonnevilles all are supercharged... Performance-wise, they all have a wide aftermarket... zzperformance.com.

Montes have boost gauges and mine runs at 7-7.5psi unless it is cold then I can get up to 8-8.5psi.

For Price wise I'd Look into the Regal gs. A lot of older gents sell them, well taken care of, and decently cheap. Main thing to look at is rust. Rust likes Buicks....a lot....

Well I'm gonna look all accross America for one. One of these supercharged 3800 cars then slap a stage 2 kit on it from zzp. I had a cobalt and zzp made great stuff for that so it should be good with a 3800 series car.

Most likely you will be able to get the Regal GS the cheapest and it will probably be well taken care of. I think the Grand Prix GTP will be the next cheapest. Make sure you get one with a HUD. I love my HUD. lol. The 97-03 GTP will give you 240hp stock (Roughly) and the 04-08 supercharged models have 260 stock (roughly). The supercharged Monte would be pretty sweet. The Bonneville SSEI will be more luxurious than the GTP but they generally cost a good amount more. Honestly I'd say get a Bonne that is fully loaded but thats just me. lol. It will be heavier too though. Good Luck in getting your supercharged car!
