    Also what budget do you have? Is it going on a stock engine? I have a Harrop HTV1900 on my VZ and love it. More than happy to answer any questions you have on them.
    In regards to tuners in QLD I recommend Jezza at HDT Performance Tuning or Mark at Power Torque Engines.

    unfortunatly yella terra don't do one yet, the vortek seem to be good, check the american sites too, was told by a guy at work to dig around on the american ls websites and have found a truck load off info, try LS1.com Performance & Technical Information or Chevy | Camaro | Firebird Reviews, Performance Parts, Modifications - LS1Tech.com, you'll also find alot on s/c, i'm keen on the whipple s/c, being toying between that, vortek or turbo kit, but made my mind up future mods will include a whipple style s/c, whether its from whipple, pwr, harrop, etc, have a look around, as said budget plays a big part in it too and whether you want a top mount whipple style or a side mount centrifugal style like a vortek/ cappa or raptor s/c, etc.

    Harrop are doing a 'black' series at the moment.
    I heard a price yesterday of 12 grand + GST for a HTV2300, water to air intercooler, new injectors and associated components, supply only. This was to suit an E2 VE Maloo.
    Gives you an idea of price.

    I have an Eaton M90 TVS on my 4 litre V6 and the driveability of that vehicle is amazing.
    I eat similar cars with centrifugal blowers for breakfast.

    check out ebay and some of the usa websites, can pick up blowers for lika quarter to half that price and with a strengthening aussie dollar might be the go, might have to pay a small import tax but will/could be a lot cheaper.
