I've been looking for one of those, I've even contacted some compaines over in Australia, let me know what you find out. You'll also need the throttle body as well.

Why woudl I need the throttle body?

My plan is if it isn't a direct swap to build a elbo that would make a turn and hook my throttle body up to the side. Since mine is "Drive By wire" I can pretty much place it anywhere...

But to run a M90 blower need the heads off a gtp

lol.. The holden is nice.. It will work since it is on a RWD 3.8 there. Eric would not need a TB since his is drive by the wire and has no cable unlinke yours John.


The super I would guess should run under 500 shipped. If you can find one used on Ebay that would be ideal, but I never see Aussie type car parts on ebay. Is there a ebay australia?

The throttle body actually attaches to the side of the super, (kinda at a 45 from the super to the front corner, at least on the holden cars) I didn't know we'd need the heads too

I forgot your car is a drive by wire.. you may have less problems than I.

Two options to get results. 1. Call the companies who sell them directly, email to a large company is hoping they find time to respond. Imagine the number of emails each day they get and possibly how insignificant the business from you is compared to others. A call would get results asap.

Message boards for RWD 3.8 Super Charged holden Cars. Check them out then ask about pricing or buying one.

You're not allowed to get a blower, Eric. You'd probably be faster than me then and I couldn't take that!

Stock would probably add 40HP and then you got simple pulley swaps for more power. Up to 19PSI the eaton in my GTP can take with programming and race fuel.

Eric runs 14.6 now, toss the blower and I bet 13.8 no other mods or programming. Plus he has the bling bling shock look when he pops the hood and people are like what is that.


John runs 16.1 if he does it with no other mods he might run 15.5ish

hehe sort of why I am trying to see what Brett can do... Rumor has it he has Forced induction contacts in Australia... seems like he might be an option...


you do have to do the heads, to fit the supercharger on you have to use the intake manifold which has no holds for the injectors they are in the heads themselves...

PRetty sure I woudl not do it but jsut a thought... everyone says it cannot be done on a v6 f-body, just like proving people wrong every now and then

I am not sure what it woudl add to my car, my compression ratio is waay different then a GTP.

hmmm. I posted a reply the other day but for some reason it never came up. The guys over Australia take like a whole month off around this time of year (summertime there). They'll be back on Monday Jan, 12th and I'll talk to them then. Stay tuned!

No problem but if it works and is more affordable then a normal supercharger setup... may have alot of business
