its really boils down to what you want. Most will tell you that if you're looking for decent power numbers and also track numbers, that FI is probably the way to go, especially with an automatic.......now with that said, anytime you introduce anysort of FI to your motor, it can turn into a fussy bitch. It all depends on the extent you go to have it properly tuned because the tune is what makes a FI build work, and I mean work well. I don't know much about the vq motors yet, I'm still learning, but I do know alot about FI and with your auto tranny and everything, I think your risking reliability over time with a SC or TT setup. But if you go NA, your going to be missing out on alot of power as well.
Talk to Looksfast here on the forum. He spent about 4k in mods and broke into the 12's and over 300whp with an NA setup. He also has a manual tranny though........
If it were me, I would do what gilley said and run a SC. Vortech and procharger make real nice kits. I think but I'm not sure that the procharger kits ate more pricey.
Your going to be limited though on your options. Your auto tranny will only hold so much, but NA just won't get you a whole lot. I say SC kit.
