Extract it first, then go the Forced induction path..
You have already covered the basics, so after extractors, a cam job, Port and polish and then Rebuild for Forced induction application..

With forced induction - there's no point buying extractors if you're going to do a turbo conversion.. but if you'd rather supercharge then by all means, do it.
Sprintex in WA can sell you a bolt on supercharger kit.
Either Street Torque in Alice Springs, or RPW in Perth can do you a turbo deal.

5kW maybe.. add a piggy-back ECU and a tune and you can add another 8kW on to that.

RPW and Pacemaker are the 2 main ones that do extractors, whoever told you that they are not available doesnt deserve ur money
