Turbros are dif arent they?

there was some talk of upgrades into the XR6 a little while ago wasnt there?
Yeah G6E and XR6 turbo use a GT3576, F6 and F6E use a GT3582.
Not sure as they use more 76's than 82's so I don't imagine there is a huge stockpile of them.

I expect them to start doing what Ford is doing and chucking left over motors in everything and anything.

Picking up a XR6T soonish will net you a nice FPV motor.

Last year of Holden there will be more LSA HSVs and LS3 SS's than you can poke a stick at.

Yeah.... probably not going to happen. All the V8's are imported with a specific application in mind. The only way motors would be left over is if they had imported them for a batch of cars that got cancelled last minute right at the end of the VF run.

IIRC, you actually linked the article into Chatbox where they were looking at running out the FPV Turbos into the XR6Ts as Ford dwindled down.
Hey it's possible! They are supplied direct from Garrett, so while they might not have a physical stockpile they may have negotiated contracts based on a specified number of units.

And a bloke in town bought a GTS probably 4 months ago and soon as he heard about the GTS Maloo he pulled some strings and secured one, so now hes trying to get rid of the GTS hahahaha
