i'm going with the hass 2zz turbo kit.. but i'm not getting the water injection with it. i'll be pushing only 6psi but that's plenty for me right now. later i will get the 8.8:1 pistons, darton wet sleeves, crower rods and see how far i can take that without using methanol but if it comes down to it i will get it and boost up to 22-25psi

Welcome to the site. I had originally thought about getting a GTS in 2000 but when I did go for the new car I did a price comparison and for the less money I got most of the options with more power. I do like the looks of the GTS, just not as much as the SS\SC. Getting the SS\SC for your wife will make a nice picture for your driveway.

Well then Mike, seeing as it's in the shop tear it all apart and go for broke. Then throw on a turbo. Who knows I bet Mev would love to design a system for you (except he is kinda busy on that other jerks engine)
