Hey guys I was searching for beretta racing parts and this site poped up. I just got a 92' GT from this chick that ****** it up. I put a rebuilt 3.1 in it and it had around 70k miles on it, I was verry impressed with what this car could do. I love it when the shity civics and other shity ricers pull up thinking its going to be an easy win. Anyway I was reading what was going on here and I just want to clear a few things up, If i goto a junk yard and find a Grand Prix Turbo take it all out and it will bolt on to the 3.1? I have been looking for a turbo/supercharger for some time now if this is ture thats going to ******* rock. Thx sorry if you have to repeat yourself I just was to make sure be4 I go on the hunt.

Also are they rare to find?

There are a few threads already posted on this..  
I think with a few minor mods since you do have a 92GT.. is it a MANUAL?... it'll be all bolt on and go.  

Welcome to the board!  Any pictures of this beastly ride?

1990-1991 are the only years they made a TGP.  It might have been 1989-1990..  Its one of those.  Two years they only made them for I know for sure.  So the luck of finding one would be rare, let alone finding them with the parts you want.  
BUT
If you talk to a guy name Jeff, I dont know his whole name, maybe someone will chime on in...  He can make you a crossover, & a chip I think for a price.  Then you'll need to upgrade your stock fuel pump to handle the increases hp/tq.  It does require some skill to put this act together.
Before you do anything, read a lot on what you are about to do so you dont invest the $$$$ and then back out because it was more than what you thought it was.  This Beretta you have is not like a honda where it has easy ways of getting parts made for it for cheap.  You dont really need to find a TGP either to do the swap.  All the TGP used for this setup was basically parts made generally for other automobile stuff.  Exmpt the exhaust though, that was custom.

There's many people on this site that can guide you into this setup way better than me.  Just do a search and you shall see.
