First of all we have a totally different engine/engine bay set up than GS-T/X. GS-T/X is 4g63t, we on the other hand are 420A.

Our engine is on the passengerside, tranny on driver side.
Their engine is on the driver side, tranny on passenger side.(flip flopped)

We do not pay attention to the 6-7 bolt set up. That is strictly 4G63.

Do some research on our motor, turboing our motor and building our motor. The best way to make sufficient power out of the car you have now, is to turbo it. Many people will say, "Just sell the car and buy a GS-T/X." You do not have to listen to them. It is your car and you do what you want with it. Turboing our car isn't the easiest thing to do in the world, but it also isn't the hardest. You may not want to spend a few thousand on a Brand new turbo kit, so you can do what I, and many other N/T owners did and follow this write up http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=181134 (thanks Chris) and build your own kit.

Like I said, do your research, questions like those will get you made fun of, and trampled by other members...Luckily you got a nice guy as a 1st reply :thumb:
