another 3sgte question, differences Options

[dans_st]

basically I was going to purchase a '93 ST185 RC, but now I am going to possibly get another engine to build up, and my question is what are the differences between different model 3sgte's?

Which engine would be the best choice for me, I can get a ST185 RC for around $2200, or a plain ST185 or ST215(engine,ECU,harness) for $1500

I know that the st185 RC engine has the water to air intercooler, and a higher boost setting, along with(not sure about) a DE-activated anti-lag system compared to the plain ST185

I know alot of people want the A/W intercooler although I already have a huge front mount.
And, as far as the higher boost I already have a boost controller.
then there is the DE-activated anti-lag system which I have heard 2 things about
1.very hard to make work and wire in for use
2.In higher HP (350+) engines it is best to remove this system

So which engine will make the most power for me without having to invest for parts or options that I don't plan on using.

I would prefer a engine that will be stronger and have more potential.

I plan on purchasing the engine within the next few weeks so I greatly appreciate any help or advice,

thanks in advance-Daniel

LMAO. I was thinking the same thing, but it's what the board is for. OMG, LOL. Dan some more research should be done, but Lagos makes some great points and I'd take that advice.
