T.R. or the GN was a turbo V6 (twin turbo even, I think).

I thought there was a third gen pontiac with the gn turbo V6 in 1989 yenko made a 1981 turbo z with a 350. I dont think the 2nd gens had a v6 until 80 or 81.

There was a 89 & 90 Pontiac Turbo Grand Prix, based on a modified 3.1 V6

The 1989 Indy Pace car was called the "TTA",there were not alot built as compared to the GTA's but it was basically a GTA powered by a slightly modified 86-87 Buick Grand National drivetrain.They are known to some as the fastest Pontiacs Buick ever built.They typically ran low 13's STOCK and could dip into the 11's with pocket change and a good tune.Most if not all have leather interiors.They sell for more than twice as much today as a GTA in the same condition.Here is a clip of this car against a LT1 Formula car.

There is a wealth of info available on http://www.turbobuick.comabout the TTA which has it's own forum over there.I am new here becausse I just picked up this 80' Berlinetta and saw this thread and though I would reply and maybe shed some light on this awesome car and possibly save some V8 guys from getting there feelings hurt by a little ol V6 3.8 liter Trans Am. Enjoy!!
