Best and cheapest do NOT go together. I suggest you use the search button

Even though you should search harder, APS is probably the best system to go with.

If you had a clear and intelligent question, we would be more willing to help you.
Its clear you put no research, nor any effort to educate yourself.
The mere fact that you just want 600-700 whp, warrants no intelligent response.

For your own safety and others around you, I suggest you be happy with the 240+ whp you got now. Its more then enough to get you in trouble

Buy a Corvette and Turbo it. Oh wait, I miss read your budget and thought it was 100k. Sorry about that. Then again, how much is a slightly used J2 rocket?

I'm starting to hate ****-poor spelling. I can see it if you're texting and you don't want to be typing away at a cell phone for half an hour, but for the love of God, man, how hard is it to add the 'h' in the word 'what'?! You have a full keyboard in front of you! Take a typing class and use the whole thing!

Oh, and regarding your initial question... these guys have taken it really easy on you so far. I fully agree with post #10 from MagicPie. You need to have a better understanding of what you want before the F/I members here can help you. Enjoy your Z, don't get bent out of shape over a little ball busting, and let the forum know when you've come up with a realistic budget and whp goals.

edit: justusS jumped in front of me. My comment is mostly directed at the OP in this case.

Ask around, find ONE shop that you trust, and let them do their thing. The end result will always be a good one. Trust their professional opinion. The good shops are in business, becuase they know what works..what doesnt...and have the resources to fix issues that might pop up.

We can definitely help you build your dream car, But a turbo system, Built engine, suspension, installation, tuning, etc. Will be a little more than 10

Let me know your goals and budget and I can recommend accordingly.

Good luck,
