Hi! I know that doesn't answer your question, but why not fitting camshafts from 3.0? They're sharper and will boost u to arround 190-195hp Then you could have one of those magic resonator boxes fitted. Are said to give up to 15hp...sounds dodgy to me, but it's cheap and easy to remove if proves useless
HOWEVER - if u manage to fit a turbo/charger - i'd like to be in the know

it's got the 3.0 cams in as from today but that's only 185 bhp not 190/195

thanks for those pics nath
i'd fancy a supercharger but i dont like the stupid whistling noise!
cant really have a chavy blow off valve on an omega turbo because the maf has "issues" when it doesnt have the air recircing back to it so there's no nonesense noises...just power

Chavney, sorry Courtney, did a turbo for 3.0 v6 Omega.  Not that common to find one now.

Only one i saw had a nasty knock from bottom end...

I nearly bought that very car but ended up loosing the telephone No

I believe the Courtney one wasn't any quicker that a N/A 3.0 anyway

im not so much bothered about hammering a 3.0 lol!
i'm after power and lots of torque- the torque comparison between n/a 3.0 omega and turbo 3.0 9-5 is massive
