    I wouldnt go that high, not worth the risk or money tbh. best way would be to bore and stroke the engine. speciallist will be able to do this, its not an off the shelf this and it would probable work out cheaper on power-to-money ratio to get a turbo.

    supercharger would be good but i would still go with a turbo. I wouldnt like to change the engine at all as its not a vectra engine going in, i would like to keep my car vauxhall
