Thanks for the responses, I saw that article at one time or another in my searches away from the bolt.

Would it be safe to assume that most bolt on mods would be related to the turbo installation? It's stock compression according to my references so I'd want to get the correct pistons and a cam with that and some arp studs for the bottom end and the head.

Are their any must Dos for the valve train? There is no way I would think 7 grand for revs with my projected uses and budget. All street driving no track. 5 grad is all I would be looking to make it go.
