Go with the 3s. From my experience (for whatever it's worth), stay NA unless you have lots of money to fix and repair problems associated with turbo engines (not that everyone has problems) or you have solid mechanical experience so you can fix everything yourself. I spent roughly $20G's on a turbo car a couple years ago (just the engine and exhaust alone, the car was only $300). $7G of the $20G was just repairing and tuning it over and over again. I have $7500 total into my celica now and that includes the car and it's great!
Currently I have 182K on my block which was tested and had excellent results so I went and rebuilt (rather a shop did) the head and had it ported and polished, threw in a full opened exhaust with header and also a SRI. I am awaiting the infamous webcams at the moment and am hoping for good results when they get installed. I won't take an STI at all but I do have fun on the highway and back roads.
