Alright, after asking around what would bring a serious power gain for the Ecotec, and by the looks of it, would be the trusty metal snail lol, I was just wondering if anyone could share their thoughts on how I should go about, I'm a bit of noob when it comes to forced induction on these V6s... Or in general, feel free to list the parts you think would work best with this and what I should keep in mind when doing this, I only say this because I hope to do this myself, just to save on labour costs.

If you're okay with DIY, a kit from Tonyz Garage (Facebook) is $2.5k. You'll need another $1.5k for fuelling and tune.

Oh yeah, That's actually quite good, quick question though, may be a dumb one lol, but does he send his kits to people who are outta state? [WA]

Those look like nice kits.

The other one to consider is Boost obsession, he does good manifolds too but you would need to piece together the rest of the kit yourself.
