    Nice truck. Pretty rare. I have an '86 Turbo Regal and we get to see a few Sy/Ty's getting abused every year at the Buick Nationals. They launch incredibly hard on street tires. It's badass that GM was producing AWD Turbo 6 trucks back then.

    They are rated 0-60 in 4.6 (I have data logged my truck doing 4.3). A stock turbo truck with no mods will run anywhere from a mid 13 to14 with a propper launch.

    A truck with stock turbo and bolt on mods with a tune is capable for breaking into the high 12's maybe (watch some youtube video's). You bolt on a turbo; most common is 20G or a nice PTE turbo maybe a PTE52 or something. There are fully built AWD trucks going 10's.

    I'll see if I can find any of my old video's with a launch or two.

    Looks good. How much did you pay for it? The only one I've seen around my area for sale was over 20k I believe.... guess it's that rare huh
    They only produced them for two years, 92' and 93' with a total of abot 4400 trucks. So you take into count for the # or rusted out, stolen and wrecked trucks and you have way less actually still on the road.

    The Syclone they only produced one year 91' with around 2200 (i believe) trucks built.

    very nice, love me some syty
    my buddy had one slammed hard on some sawblades back in like 99...not worth it at, rode horrible and the drivetrain did not like it one bit, but damn if they don't go like stink. There was a white de-cladded one in PDX for sale set up to look like a stock 2wd blazer on craigs, would so love to have that as a sleeper.
