Ed there is no point doing an NA build to then go turbo again down the road. You are going to have to rip open the block again to do lower compression pistons and other tweeks.

And my god I just want a GTR.

Nice. If you need help with anything let me know. But I still wouldn't NA build it unless you are buying a new motor completely and building that one up.

I KNOW Evo XI is a better car, but 06-07 STI looks a lot better to me.
