hahnsracecraft.com... But I was in the same shoes as you and I decided to go with a 4g63.

No I don't think its worth it but there are some people that have great success with the boosted
420a.

Check out the profile on a memeber called "Ajax" he has a nice NT to turbo converted car (420a w/ turbo conversion and a built bottom end). I did a "finish tune" on his car when he came down here and it was a beast. The car is on a 50 trim, and after we got the E85 tune dialed in it felt just as strong as my 4g63 at the same boost levels. PLus the tranny is geared for a NA motor meaning it has a lot shorter gearing that will translate into great acceleration once the turbo is on. His smoked the tires in third gear at around 20psi when we got off the interstate after the tune was finished and we were headed back to my house. We were also getting 22 MPG on E85 while blasting up and down the highways doing 3rd gear pulls to tune.

YOu gotta do something about that muffler though, it looks like it's pointing down at the ground a bit too much from the pic.

In my own experience going with a 4g63 would've been cheaper for me, but I'm very happy with the outcome of my hard work i put into my 420. Hahn Racecraft is a 420a performance upgrade specialist, check em' out out if you decide to stay with the 420. (Check out my pic's)
