	I thought about the Centreforce option but from those that
supposedly know (NEd and Scott Mockery) the 200 unit is Much better.  ANd
the price difference is only $10 for the kit.  $259 vs $269 or whatever it
is.  Also, I plan to be around 300 hp somewhere.  I'll start with 220 then
250 soon after that.  2.0 Bar I figure with Head Work, Exhaust, etc should
be around 250.  THen When I modify the Fuel Injection and Get a better
Turbo then I hope to be up around 2.2+ bar or even higher if I get
adventurous for hopefully 300+hp.  
	We'll see.

	Oh well.  I'd hate to pull the Tranny only to find its a Dished
style.  L8R
