I was really happy with my s13 sr, but they can get pretty expensive with new turbo, MAF, injectors, tuning, intercooler and then you really only have about 300-350whp… so you should definitely go with the LS1 w/ 6 speed (an sr is not going to get any better mpg really, the LS1 will be better on the highway) EDIT: Try to look an cars objectively and not with emotion, because they pretty much always just tire you out, My opinion is go with what is easy and fast ---

(gulp)…u would be better with (cant believe im guna say this) an ls1 The sr20’s are good road course motors I feel, with the high redline, I think though if you want to make big power with it and need a large turbo, it might be harder to keep on boil and to keep together under high stress with all the different stuff on the motor ---
