Gotta love a dark car!
Welcome  :
Be careful though... There's a kid called 'Buick_Guy1' on here. He's trouble when it comes to Regals. Especially the supercharged models

Its clayed of course and hand glazed with 3M Imperial Handglaze and 2 coats of TS Clearcoat from TransTech Services. I use it everyday at work. So far its the best stuff i'v used yet!
Why is the Buick guy trouble?

What happened to clean Buick engines? That looks like a spool of wire exploded in there. My 3800 doesn't have any of that exposed stuff (mine is a different generation). Did you take some plastic cover off of the intake manifold?

Yeah, it looks like it's missing the black cover that has "3800 Supercharged" on it.

Ha, ya well there are things called work and school you know  . To reply about the cover. Well, its to keep the heat from building up, and for god's sake, why would you want to cover a supercharger!!!! Plus, KR is a bad thing when having a modded, blown car. He looks to have a 3.4" pulley, and a gutted airbox, so he has to try and keep the heat out, just like me.
Also, saw the car on regalgs.org already, nice looking car.
Keep it up.

Yours is the one that runs low 13's in the quarter mile, right Buick Guy? The one your father drives to work?

That cover is called the "sight shield" and that's exactly what it does. I really doubt significant heat could build up under it. Even with it gone, there's still a hood right there...
Nice car BlackRegalGSE, and looks like you've done a bit to it. Your paint seems to have less orange peel than my Regal. Question about your grounding kit, did it seem to help anything other than asthetics? And if so, where'd you get it from? Nice looking car and
P.S. Buick_guy, you can tell the difference in a few 1/10ths of an inch on the pulley from that picture? If so, good job eagle eye!
