most prefer the T for the punch it gives. But the 2.8 has the quickest times vs a stock 1.8

Go for the 1.8 for less $$$ and less reliability. No mods? Go with the V6. Still want to mod the V6? Super charger (many $$$). I drive the 30V for my own car and really like it even though it is not a real high performance car. I drive my kid's non chipped 1.8 (170hp) quite a bit and I would pick the 30V over the 1.8t stock.

Thanks, I'd prefer something that I don't have to worry about...I would love to mod it, but I live in a downtown area with no room to work on it myself...so, I think i'll go with the 2.8. It seems that it will run better at high mileage and I don't have to worry about the turbo and all related issues caused when that has problems.

If you have no data those items being done in the last 60K miles - then assume they need to be done immediately.
