Default Your probably sick of it..but please

Just bought a 30th anniv TA. Its totally stock and I'd like to add a turbo, and limit other mods to necessary ones. My questions are:
1. Who has kits...pros and cons? Would like it as complete as possible. Will likely have a local shop install it and may need customer support just in case.
2. On the TA, is the perminent fabrication that would make it so it could never be brought back to origional?
3. Info Info Info... I used the search function here but just got confused the more I read.

Thanks in advance to anyone willing to take the time to help.

The LS1MS kit will probanly make more power, but it costs more than the TT kit. Both are single turbo's. Cahrged air systems is really close to releasing a twin kit, but nothing as of this moment. </font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"><strong>

Do searches, most, if not all, of your questions have been asked a dozen times before. Good luck! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

You will need an all out built 4l60e, slighty built behind all that torque won't last, and neither will a stock rear... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
