Reliability/Requirment Question
yeah i mean im not going to be running around town with it all day. I would just LOVE to hit 400whp on high boost, and stay in the low 300's during the day at low boost. Im prepared to take any risks and prepartions to make it the most safe for my car.
If you guys know any good setups that would suit me let me know.

im not expecting to have absolutley no problems! just nothing freaking major! like a blown engine or something! lol.
I researched the greddy kit and it looks really reliable but the turbo is so dang tiny lol. I want something that will get me on the borderline of 400whp.

sometimes...if your willing to spend much extra on the car...it is almost a better idea to just buy a beater car for like 2-3k then focus on the s2k as your fun car.
DD + project car typically dont go hand in hand 
deadzero is right, prepare to spend bling, ESPECIALLY if you cant install yourself.
i have 10k into my car, but thats total for everything, wheels, tires, clutch, boost, ems, tune, blah blah
i installed everything with the help of a friend. labor cost is expensive and can easily have pushed what i spent to 13kish.
will a gt30r make your car less reliable? maybe yes, maybe no, will you drive your car harder with it on, most likely yes, which will lead to things breaking sooner. i know i rape my car now, thankfully its taken the beating like a champ
but i dont DD mine, fun day, weekend car
do yourself a favor and get a beater if your worried, cuase shit will break.
