thanks mate, its just a stock xls at the moment, (ive only had it about 5 months) but im adding a full system stainless performance exhaust and then some boost after that, hopefully the exhaust will be on in the next couple of months

It probably wouldn't be too hard to find XR6T gear and fit it.
Otherwise, Capa blower kits are fairly complete and not too hard to fit either.
Or you could DIY your own turbo gear...
