I'm gonna get straight to the point. It might seem a little harsh, and that I'm being an asshole, but it's the truth. You aren't going to get much performace out of a GS. Nothing short of a custom turbo setup, or maybe a Hahn Racecraft turbo setup for the 420a motor, will be worth the money.

http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...d.php?t=200222 is the link on how to turbo a n/t.

Many people will say it isn't worth it, but some say if it is done properly, you could be quicker than a STOCK GST.

See above

Then, if you're still interested, the best parts are likely to come from a dsm specific vendor. A list is offered in a sticky on the main page, called "Read Before you Post." Here's a short list: www.roadraceengineering.com, www.slowboyracing.com, www.buschurracing.com.

After reading around, you'll probably come to the conclusion a gst/gsx would have been a better buy. Since you haven't started modding yet, it's not too late.
