KLZE - 200HP, 180-190TQ = ~$3000USD for engine and install (If you do <i>NOT</i> do it yourself and get a BAD deal on the engine)<p>Turbo - ~200HP@8psi (guestimate) ~$2000 (parts) + ~$1000 (install)<p>BPT - 4 cyl engine, will not drop into GS without HELLA work done to car.<p>KLZE is more reliable than a turbo system unless you spend lots of money tuning the turbo. The KLZE would be able to run a turbo later. Then again, if you turbo the K8 and decide to change to a KLZE, you can adapt the turbo setup for that. Exhaust may have to be upgraded at that point also.

the ze torque is what makes them fast and fun to drive , and they love n2o. also what about the fe3 1st gen probe ? I don't know much about it but they can be fast. :shrug:
