New plan of action?

[LanceS13]

I've been thinking...I know, sounds dangerous. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=''>

Right now, I can afford to turbo my car...but I'd have to take some shortcuts here and there. &nbsp;And being the perfectionist I tend to be, I don't really like that idea.

(related tangent) &nbsp;I'm thinking STS (my current class) will be extremely competitive next year. &nbsp;Nationals in Topeka last week had over 50 entries in this class alone.(/related tangent)

I'm thinking I should stick with STS for another year instead of going on to Street Mod. &nbsp;I can use some of the engine/turbo stash to put a more competitive suspension on the car (Tein HA's maybe). &nbsp;Something with height adjustments for corner-weighting, ride adjustment for fine-tuning, short-stroked to take a fairly generous lowering of CG w/o reducing suspension travel to nil, and for God's sake some stiffer springs. &nbsp;Also have all bushings replaced with poly-u bushings. &nbsp;And maybe some adj. t/c rods to fix my caster (at least I think that'll fix it). &nbsp;I could also do battery relocation, cone filter element, short shifter, and maybe lighter accessory pullies...basically maxing out STS mods except for a header. &nbsp;The remainder of the money will be used to build a no-shortcuts, bullet-proof engine...matter of fact, I just bought a spare '91 KA this weekend. &nbsp;While I run another year in STS (probably even run some on the Nat'l Tour&#33<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=''>, I could build that engine and save up more money for the actual turbo system components...and no junkyard intercoolers or other such shortcuts. &nbsp;I may even be able to stock-pile other SMod parts like an LSD and Z brakes. &nbsp;And finally make the SMod debute in the first possible event after the '03 Nationals in Topeka next Sept. &nbsp;
But that sounds so far away. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=''> &nbsp; Deep down, I know this would be the best route to take...but I want boost! &nbsp;
So I guess I'm just looking for support, opinions, criticisms, snide comments for posting crap like this, etc. &nbsp;What would you do?
