+1 on the lsd. and if your gonna get a turbo or a s/c your best bet is to just find a rear end off a GT

yes it does.. the only thing you would have to do is change the gearing if you wanted to go that way

That's up to you...

A turbo will give you higher hp, turbo-spin whine, that blow-off "whoosh", is more fuel efficient (since you are not always in full boosht), and you have the option of keeping the single exhaust for a true sleeper. Downsides are turbo lag (really only a concern in first gear), requires a good tune, complex piping/intercooler set-up.

On the other hand, the SC gives instant torque (some kinds), is pretty much "bolt-on", runs at lower speed than turbo (less wear & tear, cheaper parts), and you can get either the banshee scream or almost no sound. Cons are not as much power, not many kits available for V6, and some mount on top of the engine so you will need a taller hood.
