I'm in the same boat as he is... however i already have the s5 turbo, intake manifold, throttle body, front mount intercooler and exhaust manifold and POSSIBLY buying the Haltech Interceptor piggy back ECU... the only thing im worried about is if my drivetrain can handle it... i have an 86 2+2 that i recently just put 410 gears in

Haltech is the weapon of choice for rotaries as far as standalones but they are very pricey but you get power and more reliability so its worth it

i would just get some 550cc's and a S-AFC bc for your power goals it will not require a sophisticated EMS....set to about 10psi and have it tuned by a respected shop and call it a day
