Before the black beasts appeared in 1984 and later, turbocharging was an optional feature on the Buick Regal, even though it didn’t offer a real impressive gain versus the natural inspired v-6 engines that came standard.

The second video gives you detailed specifics about the chassis, body and other components that make up the 1980 Buick Regal, many of which would be carried onto the later versions.
(don’t miss seeing that useful special turbocharged gauge on the dash!)
