ecotec or buick
which motor would be better to work on and make more kw in a vn
yeh on my p's which is the sad thing
crappy ol' VN driver
On your P's i'd think you are limited to what you already have. Ecotec into VN/VP conversion goes fairly well even on a map based tune. The ecotec has better aftermarket support as well. The Buick's have a stronger bottom end from the factory but the heads just don't flow as well unfortunately

Just saying lol.
Everyone calls them ecotecs or Buick's, when in fact they are all Buicks. Holden never called the the first one a Buick though, it was just a 3.8L V6.
