It's more about if you want to keep stock springs or buy upgraded ones if you want to keep stock go gsc s1 but if you want to buy springs too buy the gsc s2. It also has to do with what your power goals are. You should also consider if you're going to stay stock turbo or go bigger before you buy cams.

if i want to buy after market springs which would be the right ones in this case. Just in case i decide to go with the GSC S2? Like if i decide to get the GSC S2 all i need is upgrade stock springs and thats about it, and of course tune after

and is i stay with stock GSC S1 should be ok with stock internals as the stock springs?

Right now im thinking on staying in stock turbo. or what would you sudjest in this case. Not trying to track the car until mayne 2,3 years. Im trying to just built it as more as of a car show for now. Right now im tune in E85 and doing about 395 HP. I just like the sound of cams and not just that but if i can add a little more hp its fine

GSC's site says the S1's are fine with everything stock internal wise. The S2's you would need springs. As far as a turbo their are a lot of options if you want direct bolt-on Garrett offers a bunch of direct bolt-on ones such as the GTX series. If you want stock frame Forced Performance has some most popular being the FP Black. Precision offers a large selection of turbos too. It all depends on what your end goal is with the car power wise. Borg Warner has kits available. I know CBRD just came out with a new kit and I have only heard good things about it. Extreme Turbo Systems also has kits available which you can't go wrong with. Like I said it all depends what power number you want to be at when you're choosing a turbo.
