^^ Hah! I don't think "lame" will be the word in use.
AFAIK there are 2 schools of thought with the gt35r ... build up your 2.0l to give you more rpms, which = enough air to really push the 35r, or go with the stroker kit to accomplish the same thing at lower rpms. Personally I subscribe to the higher rpm school of thought. Partially because I loove the way high revving engines sound and partially because I personally wouldn't trust anyone to build a 2.3L+ for me that would reliably hold high boost and high rpms (let's say 8K).
