Message If you are just going to autocross, I feel that a NA power curve is more predictable and rewarding for making slight throttle adjustments while driving near the limit of grip. You can make ~200rwhp...maybe a little more, with all the basic bolt ons on an NA. The lower weight, and better weight distribution make the NA better on low speed, tight and unbanked tracks. I have owned and modded an NA and a TT, and feel that the NA has a little better handling and control level at low speeds than the TT. However, even a stock TT embarasses a modded NA in any kind of power display. Without nitrous, expect a stage 5 NA to give up 10 car lengths to a stock TT in the 1/4 mile. If having a Z that just isn't fast is okay to you, and low speed handling, and throttle response are more important than having real power, than the NA is an okay choice. If you want the car to be fast enough to hold it's own with anything on the road today, go TT. I feel that there's really no choice here. Thus the reason I sold my modded NA, and started modding a TT. Good luck whichever way you go.
