Since I posted this thread last year I have changed my mind and have decided to save up for longer and just go the turbo. With the money I was going to spend on mods to the NA, it was going to add up to being able to buy a second hand turbo so have decided to do this instead.

FYI, I bought the BF NA 3 weeks ago, and am very happy with it.... Just make sure that if you do decide to go this way you go with the 6 speed auto. Would have to make the biggest difference to the driving experience...... Had a MKII XT for a couple days before my car was ready for pickup, and apart from looking like a fleet / company car, it was resonable, but the suspension was too soft, and the interior is crap compared to the XR6 NA. The seats are fantastic, and I do extra work just so I can drive home with the lights on with that lovely blue/red dash!!!!

Probably the same for the BF XT and XR6, but the pickup from 70/80KM/h to 150/170KM/h in my BF 4 speed is magnificent!! Just flick it over to performance mode about half a second after you floor it and you'd think it was a turbo. After testing both, the only major diff. is the pickup off the line. The NA is just a little sluggish....

Go a NA, and then buy one of the stickers that are being made soon... or at least help me get them made!!!

Enjoy the T when you get it, being S/H, make sure it hasn't been flogged too hard!!!

Thanks NOS XR and nbtopstars XR6

I'm not too worried about getting one that has been flogged. I'm sure everybody that owns one drives them hard. That is why you buy a performance car after all.
