well i chose the single cam because im poor and it was free 
and yes i will be enclosing the ITBs in a plenum even when i run them without a turbo so i can use the stock ecu and maf.
as for running turbo and ITBs in conjunction on a KA engine has been done.

^ that is frickin sex in a box!
theres a few people that have it, there is actually a kit for the sr20 that makes them bolt right up to intercooler..
as for making an NA powerful basically you do full boltons ie. intake/header/exhaust/pulleys/ecu/tune/cams/clutch/flywheel and then of course you can strip the car, get lighter driveshaft, and other things like that.. upping the compression is key, basically you want high compression rings/pistons...and ITB's of course but they are more for throttle response.

Is an SR swap really gonna cost 5 grand? The motor should be give or take 2 grand. If you do it yourself, after all the costs, shouldnt it run you like 2500?

sr20 i think is just lighter and could hold more power on its own.. i dont feel like getting into it right now
